Michael Hutchence: indie film role as ’Clive’ in Limp, 1999 | Alternate scenes

One of the lesser known and many projects MH has worked on. From the unreleased film “Limp“ (1999). Written and directed by Duane Lavold, AKA Custom behind hits like ’Hey Mister’ and ’Beat Me’ [] and radio fame from debut album “Fast” (released 2002). RIP. The Edmonton-born performer, whose creative endeavours included directing INXS frontman Michael Hutchence and shooting his own videos, recently passed on Dec. 18th, 2021, after suffering a cardiac arrest during a trip to Greece. He was 54. Lavold spent the latter part of the 1990s as an independent filmmaker. His short “Loafing” earned an audience award at the 1997 Slamdance Film Festival, leading him to connect with INXS singer Hutchence who starred in his feature directorial debut “Limp.” But Hutchence’s sudden passing and [accidental] suicide shortly after filming threw a shadow over “Limp,” and though completed, the independent project was never released.
