After shocking their local amateur filmmaking club with their over-the-top stories of lust and angst, they became stars of the NYC underground scene in the 1960s, befriending the likes of Jonas Mekas and Jack Smith. Always working with the constraints of minuscule budgets and nonprofessional actors, the Kuchar’s inspiration comes from classic Hollywood melodrama. Their cheaply made pictures, rather than being held back by lack of funds, blossomed in the shackles of poverty; the garish colors of the cheap makeup and sets were perfectly complemented by the bold color range afforded by Kodachrome reversal stock. The wild (and sometimes the inverse of wild) acting, use of stock music, lack of synch sound, hyperbolic narration, and primitive special effects all combined to make tiny gems unlike anything seen before or since. The Kuchars are cited as major influences by such filmmakers as John Waters, Todd Solondz, and David Lynch.","1942-08-31","2011-09-06",2,"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.kucharbrothers.org",120940,"nm0473647","Directing","George Kuchar","New York, New York",0.615,"\u002FpFB8luGSfUrfmI8YUd1ulYGUzUB.jpg",{"cast":19,"crew":1320},[20,32,44,53,63,71,80,91,100,109,118,129,139,153,165,178,190,198,207,217,227,238,246,255,263,274,284,298,307,316,325,333,341,349,357,366,375,383,391,402,413,420,430,442,453,461,470,480,490,501,509,520,529,538,549,557,566,574,582,592,604,616,627,638,647,659,668,677,685,694,703,710,718,726,736,745,755,764,772,782,790,798,807,815,823,833,841,851,860,869,878,887,895,904,911,919,927,936,944,953,961,969,977,985,992,1000,1008,1017,1026,1034,1046,1058,1066,1075,1083,1091,1099,1108,1120,1129,1139,1148,1156,1163,1171,1179,1189,1199,1206,1215,1222,1231,1239,1248,1255,1262,1274,1282,1290,1298,1306,1313],{"adult":4,"backdrop_path":21,"genre_ids":22,"id":23,"title":24,"original_language":25,"original_title":24,"overview":26,"popularity":27,"poster_path":21,"release_date":28,"softcore":4,"video":4,"vote_average":29,"vote_count":29,"character":28,"credit_id":30,"order":29,"media_type":31},null,[],871984,"Web of Fire","en","Short film.",0.5575,"",0,"61383ae651c01f0043ca3c33","movie",{"adult":4,"backdrop_path":21,"genre_ids":33,"id":34,"title":35,"original_language":25,"original_title":35,"overview":36,"popularity":37,"poster_path":38,"release_date":39,"softcore":4,"video":4,"vote_average":40,"vote_count":41,"character":42,"credit_id":43,"order":29,"media_type":31},[],1081036,"Arizona Byways","A cactus-strewn desert becomes the backdrop for this series of filmic stopovers.

One day on set the actress witnesses her mother collapse in the middle of shooting. Thinking her dead, the woman quickly spins out of control, immediately descending into drug use and promiscuity. The daughter’s depression-induced mania is assuaged when the mother recovers, but only briefly. When the mother quickly dies, the forlorn daughter plummets again into hopelessness and seeks solace in religion. However, even this buffer cannot shield her from the ills of the world. After killing a man and descending again into drunkenness and despair, the daughter receives a substantial amount of money from her dead mother’s estate. Donating it all to the homeless, the young girl finally gains freedom from the memory of her loss.  – Kyle Riley",0.7731,"1993-06-01","6674e5c625a4903b11b0468c",{"adult":4,"backdrop_path":21,"genre_ids":2169,"id":880,"title":881,"original_language":25,"original_title":881,"overview":882,"popularity":883,"poster_path":884,"release_date":885,"softcore":4,"video":4,"vote_average":237,"vote_count":9,"credit_id":2170,"department":13,"job":188,"media_type":31},[],"5ac423580e0a260c2a047789",{"adult":4,"backdrop_path":21,"genre_ids":2172,"id":2173,"title":2174,"original_language":25,"original_title":2174,"overview":2175,"popularity":2176,"poster_path":2177,"release_date":2178,"softcore":4,"video":4,"vote_average":29,"vote_count":29,"credit_id":2179,"department":13,"job":188,"media_type":31},[],515989,"Andy's House of Gary","A young painter, and his somewhat slower roommate, talk of paranormal occurrences in a room of charcoal canvasses and ephemeral renderings.

Movies acted as an escape from day-to-day life, a parallel reality that reveled in sin and sensation. Teaching at the libertine San Francisco Art Institute from 1971–2011, Kuchar made numerous hot-blooded, Z-grade “classroom pictures” with his students. Several, including Club Vatican, Motel Capri and Evangelust, act as lascivious collective exorcisms of religious hypocrisy and sexual repression. Club Vatican is one of the most visually sumptuous of Kuchar’s classroom pictures, and was recently restored by the Harvard Film Archive (alongside other of Kuchar’s pedagogical free-for-alls). The frame is packed with visual stimulation and the film unfolds as a series of writhing tableaux depicting clergy and sinners alike in perverse Catholic rites.
