Jaimz Asmundson

Our hero, Frank the business man, peruses the Adult Classifieds in search of a lunch hour "quickie". He and his co-worker get more than they bargained for when they encounter a "real" dominatrix.

Amerika, Zed and Kyle are good friends until the excitingly undermedicated bitch goddess Trasha enters the frame, cutting Kyle off from his friends and their vacuous and unencumbered world of beer and porn. Amerika and Zed aim to free their friend from the clutches of his nutburger girlfriend by enlisting the aid of the Sappho Carpet Cleaners for some wet work. The plan goes awry when Trasha and her psychosis find themselves a paying gig and tables are turned, trashed and burned.

On the 25th anniversary of his employment, Dave Barber, the visionary workaholic programmer of Winnipeg's beloved Cinematheque, dies tragically in an avalanche of VHS tapes while working late to finish the programming calendar. His workaholic ghost returns to the land of the living to finish the calendar and haunt the Cinematheque by night.

The Magus is a multi-format, process-based experimental film that explores the root of artistic creation. The film documents visual artist, C. Graham Asmundson's body of work over a rigorous six-month period.

Jock Van Rysell is a middle age psychiatrist on the verge of a nervous breakdown. When a parasitic male patient of his interrupts his comfortable life, his sanity is literally flushed down the toilet.

The positive phototaxis of ephemeral forces in nature.

Drawing Genesis is a saturated visual compendium that traces C. Graham Asmundson’s performative gestures and visual residue. With the use of time lapse, still frames, lens obstruction, occult symbolism, subliminal imagery and blatant queer references, the film presents a ritual of artistic inspiration that invokes man’s primal forces. Created for the 2006 WNDX One Take Super 8 Event.

Asmundson’s first attempt at a One Take film in 2008 was torn to shreds by the camera he’d borrowed. Left with no alternative, Asmundson made Sleep while he slept, using the open exposure setting on his new Bauer camera, with no light except for what spilled in through the window. Eight hours of sleep is compressed into 20 seconds. But this is only the beginning.

Structured around the recollection of a premonitory dream, fragmented memories from the period leading up to the death of the filmmaker’s mother were projected on to natural textures and surfaces, re-photographed, composited and processed until the memories became abstracted representations of the evolution, degradation and disintegration of memory and the physical self.

A couple of uber-goths ride the public transit to go to the mall and buy more lipstick.

Three giant Chihuahuas, from outer space, travel towards the Earth to take over the earth. Kyle Lemke, the survivor of their last attack, goes to see a psychiatrist for the trauma he has suffered. The Shrink, who is in league with the Chihuahuas, hypnotizes Kyle to thinking the best thing for him is to go on a vacation. Kyle decides to go to the beach. He gathers up his friends and they head for the beach. Disguised as three girls, the Chihuahuas intercept the boys on the way there and join them for the party. At the beach, the girls shed their disguises and return to their giant Chihuahua forms, and they attack the boys. Traumatized, the boys walk back to the city, where they are safe, for now.
