Hey, I love the Mad Fabricator's DVDs and look forward to the release of each one but need more. I watched the trailer for the Hot Rod Havoc DVD and it doesn't look nearly as well produced as the MFS stuff. Any opinions? Are there any others like MFS that are worth buying?
Apples and oranges. Some people like HRH more than MFS, some like MFS more than HRH. They're both well-produced. There's 2 HRH DVDs, if you didn't already realise. Don't buy the "Hot Rods, Rat Rods & Kustom Kulture" DVDs....ewww, just typing that gives me bad vibes. Not good.
Not really along the same lines but probable one of the most awesome collections of Hot Rod film, try 'Dreams of Legends'
i own both hrh 1 and 2 and mfs 3 and 4. i love all 4 of the videos. the mfs dvds are like video magazines where they feature segments on different cars and people with show footage between. hrh has just a bunch of show footage set to bad ass music. the only thing i dont like is how short the hrh videos are. they are both only like 40 mins long but the bonus footage is like and hour and a half. my opinion buy them all !!!!! you wont be disapointed
Thanks..for the good words... They are 2 diffrent DVDs MFS is magazine style and HRH is more of a montage of footage with no interviews..I like the HRH DVD's there a good add to your collection.. these should hold you over till Febuary when MFS 5 comes out..and believe me it will be worth the wait.. Support your indy production companys.
Speaking of Mad Fabricators, I spotted this personalised number plate a couple of days ago. It stands for Maddren Fabricators but I thought it was cool.
to me there is no equal to the MFS series. those videos have not only inspired me to "go out and drive fast" but to actually get in my garage and build something. the hot rod havoc videos are ok, but... maybe its just me... i don't want to see footage of phoney police car chases or lars frederiksen pissing on a wall. instead of buying HRH # 1 and 2 buy the other vids evel offers, the car that ate my brain, i was a teenage monster or desperate generation.
to me, hrh is like a video version of osr. remember how everybody complained about the photography? when they showed more of the model's ass than the fender or whole car she was sitting on? in the first hrh, something neat would come on screen for all of about 1.3 seconds, and then it was gone. some car i really wanted to see more of instead of a flash. i haven't purchased the second havoc, but i have all four mfs.
THATS FANTASTIC!! Heres mine on the coupe...i'm going to try to have some made that say MFS 331 Thanks for support!! Wait till you see whats next... ow.....my.
You know I have all the mfs stuff, I was a teenage monster shirt painter. I will pick up 5 at the detroit autorama this year but probably cant wait that long for the car that ate my brain. What is desperate generation?
desperate generation was a little different from the other vids evel has,... but i personally liked it. i don't believe he had anything to do w/ it when it was made. it's documents the whole rockabilly/ hotrod scene in the 1990's. i have never really been into "the scene" but it's kinda cool to see how it has grow from then to now. you will recognize some of the people, cars and clubs in it. worth buying.
A friend on mine Emily Dutton did this film as project for film school and copies got around and it became a underground hit so to speak.. I took it and fixed some things and added an hour of bonus footage.. it;s sorta like MFS but 10 years ago.,,,
Heres a link to all my youtube stuff,, http://www.youtube.com/profile_videos?user=madfabricators&p=r Thanks.
I highly recommend Mad Fabricators. I was not impressed with Hot Rod Havoc at all. Just guys driving their cars with a soundtrack in the background. I couldn't get into. My two cents matt
so where is the Hot Rod Havoc III trailer? I cant seem to locate it - but people were telling me about it in Detroit 2 weeks ago.........
I just wanted to let you guys know that Hotrod Havoc 3 is now out... If you like the other 2 this will be similar to thoses ... so be forewarned.. We featured the Burbank Choppers, Bottrop Kustom Kulture Show (Germany), London Hotrod Hayride along with other shows and car guys... You can check out the trailer and the new updated site www.hotrodhavoc.com it will play the second you hit the site... All support is greatly appreciated. Thanks for all the kind words.. I heard kids love it too!!! Anyways. YES, HOTROD HAVOC 3 IS FINALLY DONE!!!!
