BATSON SLUDGE: I TEND TO RAMBLE
By James Chris Wilkinson

GENRE: Art House
LOGLINE:

In a surreal recording studio built from Batson Sludge’s engineered scars, royal delusions, and unruly noise, the space itself becomes a living organism that mirrors his fractured identity — forcing him to confront the parts of himself that refuse to stay quiet.

SYNOPSIS:

Batson Sludge, a reclusive, infamous musician with a past full of trauma and visions, sits for an interview inside his industrial‑mysterious studio — dark blue steel walls, a gold couch like a throne, and a towering wall of speakers that mirrors his larger - than - life identity. Batson relates tales that bounce between humor, confession, and otherworldly thoughts, revealing a childhood of abuse, fear, and explosive imagination.

He recounts the “MI” — a mountain incident where reality took a detour, leaving him convinced he encountered an alien guardian. The interviewer tries to lead him, but Batson’s memories pinball out of control: exploding churches, devils with light swords, stuttering fits, fights, and the strange moment when he felt pulled into a spinning hole of light. His history is part trauma, part truth, part performance art.
