The Battle Between the Burps and Farts is a 31-minute long [2] short film directed, written and produced by Aiden Dillard and distributed by Troma Entertainment. [1] It was made as an expansion of a student film he made in his junior year [3] which was, according to Dillard, he made the film in the wake of 9/11, calling it "his attempt to show the terrorists that they will never destroy the rotten, smelly core of the Big Apple". [2]
Screening
The Battle Between the Burps and Farts was first screened in New York City and upon its première, was responsible for inciting many a fist fight amongst audience members. [2] After it was submitted to the TromaDance festival, it became the first and so far only film to be booed by everybody in attendance. [1] Despite this, Troma Entertainment executive Lloyd Kaufman remained optimistic about it, calling it a "high point of TromaDance 2004" [4] and on the back of this film's screening, Troma released Meat Weed Madness which included this film as an extra on the DVD. [1]
Plot
The film tells the story of a girl, Princess Martha Stew-Burp, [2] who is able to channel flatulence at will. [1] After she is kidnapped by a wizard, she is taught to channel her wind orally, but after being raped by the leader of the Burps, regains her ability to channel her wind anally. [1]
Critical reception
Bill Gibron of DVD Talk called its universal condemnation "not hard to see why" [1] and called it "excruciating to sit through. It's loud, abrasive and more or less pointless. Still, it does offer a window into Dillard's designs as a filmmaker". [1]
