i don’t know who Leon is but i’m pretty sure he doesn’t need Kings of Leon @ Hollywood Bowl with Built to Spill (wow, didn’t even know he was still around) and Features opening (tix here)
it’s a CALENDAR FOLDING PARTY!!!! @ Cinefamily – more info from them “The latest round of our print calendars is here! We’ll start the folding this Monday at 7:30PM — come on by the theater, for there will be pizza, snacks, and afterwards, a 35mm screening of Satan’s Cheerleaders, exploitation master Greydon Clark’s ‘77 ode to teenage abandon and devil worship!”
i have no idea what Fol Chen means so i’m sorry but you’re not getting a joke about their name and i’m sure you’re all torn up about it @ The Echo with Random Patterns (yay! – the vid above for Psychic Luau super sucks but i CANNOT GET ENOUGH of this song. it’s the feel good song of the summer for me.) and Pizza! opening
talk about a bad trip! TONIGHT Grindhouse presents the cult classic An American Hippie In Israel at the Steve Allen Theater. the cheeseball psychedelic masterpiece of terrible is screening after thirty-one years of obscurity. seems like it will probably be full of antidisestablishmentarianism. and also drugs. lots of drugs. i have no idea why but The Ettes are also bringing their Nashville lo-fi garage rock to the night. this seems like a whole lot of amazing for only $10, and movies actually sell out at the Steve Allen a lot so get your tickets in advance here. (The Ettes are also playing tomorrow night at the Echo - tickets here for only $8.) “shut your ass!” (*update: there are cheaper tickets available through Goldstar here. get them fast, it stops a few hours before the show.)
eff-ing-a. next year is just going to be the best ever in movies, music, and hopefully our day-to-day lives. and now after seeing Avatar in 3D, i am an extra dimension full of excitement for Tron Legacy in 3D. the future is finally now. (check out the trailer for Tron Legacy here)
Cinefamily has programmed a great fucking month of quality (in other words, terrible) horror films and i’m truly sorry i haven’t been able to post more about the absolutely stellar run they’ve had. this week wraps up the series with a trilogy of terror (no, not the movie, but definitely the same general idea) tonight, tomorrow night, and Saturday. tickets for all three evenings are available via their calendar page here.
tonight there is a triple-feature with Hatchet (even though the amazing Chopping Mall is pictured in their flyer for some reason), Shakma and Night of the Demon.
tomorrow night, and holy fuck buttons do i want to go to this but i’ll be too busy getting loaded, is a double feature from torture porn auteur José Mojica Marins, with uncensored runs of Hallucinations of a Deranged Mind and Embodiment of Evil (wonderfully NSFW trailer below).
and Halloween they close it all up with the Bollyween party and fundraiser. info from the site below the pic.
This Hallow’s Eve, The Cinefamily joins forces with Dublab to throw the best Halloween party ever, Bollywood-style!
