Artist and experimental filmmaker Bruce Conner has died at the age of 75. He’s maybe best known for his first film, the 1958 assemblage A Movie; his most recent film, Easter Morning, a pure cinema short shot in the 60s and recently released to celebrate Conner’s 50th anniversary, screened in competition last month at CineVegas. Ray Pride has much, much more at Movie City Indie. I’ve embedded one of Conner’s more surprising works, a short set to Devo’s “Mongoloid,” above.

For their latest Photoshop contest, Something Awful invited amateur image editing masters to revamp movie posters, to replace the title of the movie with an appropriate song title. My favorite is this take on Raiders of the Lost Ark. Imagine if George Lucas and Steven Spielberg actually adopted influences from DEVO. If Indy 4 was going to be anything like the Whip It video, I might actually care.
