Grand Mal
1981, English. Directed by Tony Oursler.
"Oursler’s thematic concerns betray classic Freudian anxieties about sex and death. In Grand Mal, the hero takes a convoluted odyssey through a landscape of disturbing experiences. The video’s free association includes, "digressions about the difference between salt and sugar and a version of the creation myth that is both banal and terrifying." — Christine Tamblyn, “Art Notes,” Scan (November/December 1981)
