Having been witness to several short films by Mr Gooch I can honestly say that I cannot wait until he breaks into feature films. The verve, energy and humor displayed in this, 'Arthurs Amazing Things', 'The Curse of Ian Spatchcock', 'The Horn' and 'Eddies Sticky End' (to name a few) is very rare in todays cinematic climate. Often likened to a new Monty Python (whom he often names as a major influence) Gooch films have an incredible energy and wit all their own. 'The Orgasm Raygun' is a short film detailing the (mis)adventures of a man who invents a gun that when fired at people gives the victim an instant orgasm. Masterfully narrated by Leslie Phillips and directed at a crisp pace by Mr Gooch this short film has been a firm favourite at every festival it has been shown. One can easily see why Mr Gooch has been a multiple winner of the BBC's talent competition and this short leaves you wanting more.
