Good Friday
2007-Apr-6 by Laughcalvin
-Briefly, in the late 80's, I flirted with beastiality...just kidding. Hell of a thing to start out with on Good Friday but I blame it on Grindhouse. Here is A. O. Scott in the NYTs on said film:
And Grindhouse argues, with more enthusiasm than coherence, for the integrity of a certain kind of old movie. Not the stuff that finds its way into the Classics section of the video store, but the kind that the guys behind the counter are always talking about: cheap, nasty slasher films, sleazy sexploitation pictures, gimcrack sci-fi epics starring people you never heard of. Just about anything, in short, with the right combination of topless women, gory, pointless violence and inspired amateurism. Also car chases.
- Bujalski, Duplass, and Swanberg discuss McGriddles and Blogs.
- For those in HellA, you can do no better than checking out MobMovie. Details:
We've nailed down a NEW LOCATION in Lake Forest for the screening. Details are below.
The MobMov Hollywood chapter is presenting a Double Feature Drive-in in the OC! We'll be in Lake Forest this Friday night for a special screening of:
KILL HOUSE
Directed by Beth Dewey
A modern day tale of bloodlust, rivalry and greed - all masquerading as the American Dream. As news of a brutally murdered San Francisco realtor throws the Los Angeles real estate community into a tailspin, fear and panic spread as more and more agents turn up dead. Who's behind these crazed serial killings? The prime suspect is an ex-con hired by one of the property owners. But after he's caught, the killings don't stop - they only get worse! It's a self-indulgent world of terror, where no one's who he or she seems to be -- and everyone's a suspect. A bloody black comedy with a satirical twist, KILL HOUSE is destined to be a cult classic.
Followed by a showing of William Castle's 1959 horror classic:
HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL, starring Vincent Price.
A millionaire holds a haunted house party with a prize of $10,000 to whoever will spend the night.
Local magazine SqueezeOC will be covering the event, and they would really like to talk about the MobMov experience with attendees, particularly those of you who are from Orange County. Of course, everyone is invited, and the show is FREE!
