Rather soon they are putting out 3d smart phones and the 3ds handheld might be fun. Still i feel that its somewhat gimmicky. Any views?

After finishing his first feature length film, the cyberpunk splatter flick Hardware, Stanley started working on his dream project Dust Devil: a horror film very loosely based on the Nhadiep, a Namibian mythical serial killer. Dust Devil is one of the most original and profound pictures ever screened in the entire history of the film festival. Visually speaking The Dust Devil is nearly flawless and Richard Stanley’s eye for composition and ability to build up mood are forever burnt into the imagination of devoted cult followers such as myself. Devil is a remarkable horror film that successfully mixes graphic gory realism with a supernatural mythology and the Spaghetti western iconography with African spiritualism. Cut from 120 minutes to a trifling 86 minutes, Dust Devil was butchered into incoherence by the studios and only recently found a proper DVD release. Thankfully Fantasia’s fans had a chance to see the original cut on the big screen back in the late 90’s. Earlier this year Sound On Sight devoted a chunk of its radio show to the director.
