Zev and Xev in DER CLOWN

Here's a fun little bit of weirdness for Lexx fans. Der Clown is a 2005 action movie featuring both Xenia Seeberg and Eva Habermann. Habermann, as Lexx fans know, played the feisty love slave Zev on the show, while Seeberg played Zev after she died and was re-constituted as Xev by Lykka the man-eating plant. (Yes, Lexx was indeed a very special show.)

While Der Clown looks like a fun and fairly big budget enterprise - at least if this Spanish-language clip is anything to go by - the reviews were not kind at all. Nobody seems to have a good word to say about the film, and the reviewer on IMDB even thought the closing credits sucked. "If you tailor you next films after this model," Marco 23 Polo writes, "DON'T EVER ATTACH THE KIND OF CREDITS WITH FEELGOOD BACKSTAGE FOOTAGE AND BLOPPERS ... it's simply downright embarrassing, period (I had to cover my eyes)."

So, hear that, German action movie producers? No feelgood backstage footage or bloppers.

Oh, well. It's nice to see Eva and Xenia getting work.
