 Patrick Spohrer, paintball’s resident filmmaker, has inspired countless thousands of paintball players with his films like Push, Sunday Drivers, Heroes for a Day and Cereal Killers, which showcase the highs, lows and intensity that characterize the lives of those who devote themselves to paintball on the highest level. After a long wait, Spohrer, wife Bonnie DeMenge and their company Monkey with a Gun have finally released the long-awaited sequel to Cereal Killers, CK2. Debuted at the 2009 PSP World Cup in Florida at the Polk Theatre to a packed house, Cereal Killers 2 once again pulls the viewer into the lives and games of some of the very best paintball players in the world.
Opening with an intense compilation of action scenes from paintball games showcasing the talents of the professional players featured in the film, CK2’s opening sequence exhibits Patrick Spohrer’s amazing ability to see, capture and convey things on the paintball field like nobody else. When seen through the eyes of Patrick Spohrer via Cereal Killers 2, the dirty, intense and emotional game of paintball becomes almost beautiful. Players like Konstantin Federov of Red Legion and Philadelphia Americans fame, Lucian Blackburn, Tyler Humphrey and Justin “Duder” Summers of Baltimore Trauma, Brandon Mayo of Avalanche, Travis Lemanski and Brian “LB” Fow of Infamous, Thomas Taylor of XSV and Angel Fragoza and Ryan Greenspan of Dynasty are featured in the film, with voice-over from those players, sequences about their lives and highlight reels of their in-game exploits. Like those at the Polk Theatre preview, those who watch Cereal Killers 2 on anything from the family television to a laptop on a plane will be captivated by the action, the intelligence and the artistry that have become the hallmarks of Spohrer and Monkey with a Gun. In this modern age of the Internet, YouTube and Tivo, Paintball movies and the companies that produce them have become an endangered species. However, Monkey with a Gun has persevered and found success thanks to their ability to put paintball on film like no-one else. Players of any skill level, whether interested in tournament competition or scenario paintball, will love Cereal Killers 2 and should own a copy. Cereal Killers 2 is a must-have addition to any player’s DVD library. www.MonkeyWithAGun.com
