Production Credits & Notes

“simply unlike anything you've seen before” DVD Talk

"Jon Reiss is Survival Research Laboratories best kept secret. Reiss has captured not only the ear-splitting techno-fury orchestrated by the remote-control-carrying SRL overlords, but the actual dangers inherent to each show." Film Threat

"Capturing the tension between terror and humor that characterizes SRL's live shows is no mean feat. Reiss manages to do justice to the artistic bravado and technical genius behind all those menacing machines . . . all woven into a gloriously cacophonous whole." BAM Magazine
