TEMPE TELLS ITS CUSTOMERS TO GET "BENT" THIS JULY 13! 


BENT 3-Pack Boston-based Mindscape Pictures and Tempe DVD have teamed up to present a trio of short film compilations on July 13, 2004 (prebook June 1) called BENT. This unique 278-minute collection on 3 discs runs the gamut of genres — from comedy to drama to horror to experimental, and includes 180 minutes of bonus features aimed at learning how to make your own independent movies. 

From award-winning writer/director Jason Santo comes a new series of diverse short stories bound together by the theme that human life, like the path of running water, can be suddenly and unpredictably...BENT. Three volumes, ten stories, eight hours of entertainment! These DVDs are not available separately and come packaged in an eye-catching collectible sleeve:

VOLUME ONE: In Marisa, a woman’s promise of love dissolves into a nightmare. In the meditative drama His Life, we meet a man who has known his whole life he was to die on his 25th birthday. And in the terrifying horror picture Haunted, a group of criminals are stalked by a murderous presence in a haunted hideout. (88 mins., plus bonus features)

VOLUME TWO: In Time Heals All Wounds, a pair of friends become frozen in time by an unanswered question about lost love. In the experimental silent picture The Dinner, two couples get together for a seemingly normal dinner party that seems ripe with adulterous subtext. And in the plot-twist-laden In A Sky With No Angels, a woman is unexpectedly contacted by a now on-the-run high school acquaintance claiming to hold the secrets of life, death and the existence of God. (80 mins., plus bonus features)

VOLUME THREE: In the disturbing experimental picture Here Comes Your Man, a man maliciously spreads HIV to women he seduces. For the lead character in Again, the home of his wife’s friends is an all-too-familiar place. And in the cute, cheerful romantic comedy More Than Money’s Worth, a college co-ed is paid by a group of preps to pretend she likes the captain of their school’s golf team so he can get his game back. In the bonus short Aftermath, a group of teenagers cope with the loss of one of their friends in a high school shooting. (110 mins., plus bonus features)

DVD BONUS FEATURES: Learn to make your own independent movie!
• Behind-the-scenes featurettes including deleted scenes and outtakes
• Bonus commentary tracks, trailers, animated menus and individual movie selection

BENT 3-Pack carries a $29.99 SRP and is available direct from Tempe or through our distributors at Ventura Distribution, Inc. and their partners.
