Newsflash: I will watch anything featuring “Flight of the Conchords” alumni Jemaine Clement. I own “Tonga Ninja”, “Gentlemen Broncos”, and “Diagnosis: Death” simply because he’s in there doing his thing, and I’m not too proud to admit it. To my giddy delight, the fine, dedicated individuals at Twitch were extremely kind enough to give the world the first look at the man’s latest project, namely director Jason Stutter’s pitch black comedy “Predicament”. The film, a demented tale surrounding the bumbling misadventures of three would-be blackmailers, is tearing things up on the festival circuit, though I’m honestly not surprised. It does, after all, star Jemaine Clement. I mean, come on, people. North American release dates have not been set as of this writing, though you can watch this clip over and over again until your little heart’s content.

No, normally, a small New Zealand movie wouldn't gather attention around these parts. But ever since Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie walked away from the Flight of the Conchords TV series, and Clement was so woefully underused in Gentlemen Broncos, I've been wondering what he'd be up to next.Flight of the Conchords episode, Jemaine has headed back to New Zealand. Quiet Earth is reporting that Clement is part of the cast of Diagnosis: Death, a crime comedy set in the 1930s. The main character is a teenager who conspires with two others to blackmail wealthy couples, so presumably Jemaine isn't the main character. But still, a little bit of Clement can go a long way. No telling if we'll ever see this movie in the States, but now you'll know to keep an eye out for it.

There are few people out there who are as naturally funny as Rhys Darby, who you may know from Flight of the Conchords or Pirate Radio. He's the sort of guy who could even make the process of telling someone that they're going to die kind of funny. Which is exactly what happens in his latest role as a doctor in the comedy Diagnosis: Death. In the direct-to-dvd flick, Darby joins fellow Conchords Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement for a few hilarious bit roles in a movie about a supernatural force that invades a hospital for the terminally ill. Have a look at the clip and the film's official synopsis below. A supernatural force brings together two lost souls undergoing radical treatment at an experimental drug-testing facility.

Although it wasn’t nearly as funny as I was hoping it would be, “Tongan Ninja” director Jason Stutter’s amusing horror/comedy “Diagnosis: Death” is finally making its way to the States later this year. The film will certainly be a treat for hardcore fans of HBO’s popular series “Flight of the Conchords,” which stars Jemaine Clement, Bret McKenzie, and Rhys Darby. And while the marketing team behind the film would love for you to believe that these talented individuals have significant roles in the feature, this is actually a tad misleading. Their respective parts are, unfortunately, mere cameos, so do keep that in mind before blindly ordering the film in hopes of satisfying your “Conchords” fix. Here’s the synopsis, as usual: A supernatural force brings together two lost souls undergoing radical treatment at an experimental drug-testing facility.
