Italian Film Director Ronaldo Fabulosi demands Wunderschnitzel to star in another movie.



Boston Globe – Kiev Special Report

Miss Jimi’s signature skimpy LA style bikini and fur coat ensemble has spurned a fashion craze all across the Ukraine, even reaching some far flung conservative farming communities, where the army has been called out, but last night the Electro-Folk-Rock-Pop Gods Wunderschnitzel wowed an exuberant crowd of five thousand fans at the Peppermint Walrus Club in Kiev. When the band opened with their 1993 hit Space Schnitzel and singer Miss Jimi took to the stage many of the fans disrobed and flung their clothes towards their idols.

As part of their Rock Da Haus Tour the band has three gigs lined up in the Ukraine, one at the infamous Odessa Cake Company, a large bakery that was in fact sued in 2001 by Wunderschnitzel’s Magnus Glocken for illegally stealing his cake recipe for Marmorgugelhupf. Evidently there is more than meets the eye and we will be following that story in the days to come.

The big revelation this week which dampened any on-line interest in the rumours of Wunderschnitzel’s former drummer Max Pedelo returning to the band, is that Italian film Director Ronaldo Fabulosi has signed Magnus Glocken and his partner Ludwig Speil to another movie deal. It was only in 2003 that Wunderschnitzel’s Max Glocken and Ludwig Speil starred in another Fabulosi film entitled La Grande Crepa, a gangster flick in which they play a pair of traveling troubadour assassins who are employed by the Mafia boss Don Zucca to track down his rivals to a hidden cave complex in the mountains. This new movie is reputed to be equally worthy to be released immediately to DVD. Ronaldo Fabulosi himself told reporters that the script would be a musical drama about two sewer technicians from Munich who decide to take the law in their own hands and take revenge on an inner circle of town council members who have ignored health and safety standards.

Ronaldo Fabulosi told Reuters News Agency over the phone from his mobile chalet outside Venice that this new film despite having a musical element would still have his signature blend of violence, explosives and naked girls. ‘Even when I did the movie 'White or Red' about 16th century monks creating a white wine that could be turned red with a simple additive, I still got violence, explosives and naked dames in there somehow. Put all that down a sewer and you’ve got yourself an even bigger hit and because with all that methane down I wont need to spend anything on pyrotechnics,’ he was quoted as saying. He also noted that he had cast Wunderschnitzel’s former bodyguards Kurt Venderbeers, Uri Flopov and Seymour Wang, known in the protection business as The Three Fists. They will play the inner circle of town councilors and it was reported that all parties were looking forward to working together again since they retired this year as Wunderschnitzel’s official personal protection to pursue other areas. As Ludwig Speil recently noted on Twitter. ‘Whenever they chaperoned us, be it on stage, an after party orgy or even a camping trip those lads kept a tight ring around us. They even slept around our bed. I mean our beds. That’s protection for you, although the three of them snoring is something else. All good thespians though. No doubts in that corner’.
