Flairs "Trucker's Delight"

Over the course of three minutes, director Jérémie Périn ticks-off a torrent of earth(l)y pleasures with an exquisite send-up to 33mhz gaming. And sketch. This is the seedy, direct-to-.flv, Full Throttle we were never promised, but our hormones desperately believed existed. (See: hours wasted combing Apogee's Jill of the Jungle.)

A rare example of form utterly eclipsing content, however seamy. If you haven't bought a vowel: these pixels are colossally NSFW.

"'Truckers Delight' animated video clip directed by newcomer wunderkid Jérémie Périn who takes the song's title (a tribute to those little pleasures that the lonely truck- driver indulges himself in) and takes it to the next level. Think Spielberg's Duel + Russ Meyer's Faster Pussycat Kill Kill! and Marc Dorcel's wildest fantasies. All warped into an 8-bit Sega era style graphic. And this clumsy and somehow pretentious description doesn't even come close to what you're about to see: it's très funny, très dirty, très sexy. Très Flairs indeed."
