PRODUCT INFORMATION

Exploring themes of isolation, suicide, voyeurism, murder, sexual aberrations, and the condemnation of organized religion, Michigan born, UK based filmmaker and provocateur Richard Baylor sent shockwaves throughout the repressive and censorious ‘90s British film scene with his subversive and button-pushing underground video works. Drawing inspiration from the short and shocking films of Richard Kern, Nick Zedd, and their contemporaries from New York’s Cinema of Transgression scene, Baylor became an honorary member of the movement by creating similarly insurgent works on video in his native Ipswich, England, culling collaborators from the local punk rock and industrial noise communities and employing acting performances and soundtrack contributions from members of Extreme Noise Terror, Whiteslug, and Optimum Wound Profile.

After decades in the ether, Saturn’s Core is proud to finally unleash the complete works of Richard Baylor. Preserved and presented under the supervision of Baylor himself and marking their disc debut and long-awaited return to physical media since the tape trading and mail order VHS days of the 1990s. The collection combines early unseen work (Our Own Personal Hell), Baylor’s award-winning video anthologies (You Made Your Bed...Now Die in It, The Holy Trinity), and culminates with his magnum opus; the notorious serial killer rumination Cirsium Delectus, inspired by the real life case of California’s Sunset Strip Killers Doug Clark and Carol Bundy. Accompanied by hours of special features, audio commentaries, a new 45 minute documentary, and a 28 page booklet, Our World is Drowning and Going to Hell: The Underground Films of Richard Baylor is the ultimate descent into the disturbing milieu of one of the ‘90s most provocative and formerly uncharted video agitators.
