POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

This Halloween season, join Dumpster Raccoon Cinema at the @revuecinema as it celebrates electro-trash genius KEN RUSSELL with his baroque horror comedy LAIR OF THE WHITE WORM (1988) - only 25 TICKETS LEFT!

Poster by @bonyfingers - available in the lobby during the screening!

When young archaeologist Angus Flint (Doctor Who’s own PETER CAPALDI!) unearths an enormous serpent skull at his friends Mary and Eve’s (Dynasty star Catherine Oxenberg and Sammi Davis) bed and breakfast, he unwittingly discovers the first clue to the mysterious disappearances plaguing the local community and vexing the waggish lord of the manor James D’Ampton (a young HUGH GRANT!). Could the skull be connected to the mythic D’Ampton Worm – an enormous serpent of legend, and could they ALSO be connected to the VERY INTENSE AND SULTRY Lady Sylvia Marsh who is OBVIOUSLY A SNAKE-LADY (the legendary AMANDA DONOHOE, chewing every bit of scenery with sinuous fangs) ALSO very obviously murdering everybody??? Will our plucky heroes save the day – or will everyone in town be eaten in progressively unlikely and ludicrously snaky ways???

Loosely adapted by Ken Russell from Bram Stoker’s second-best novel (and it is a STEEP decline after Dracula), Lair of the White Worm was roundly panned by critics and its own stars (Hugh Grant remains befuddled about it to this day – “when I saw it, I roared with laughter”) – but has been reclaimed as a cult classic, finally recognized as wildly funny on its own knowing terms, a quality perhaps disguised by Russell’s outre style. As he himself put it, “Audiences don’t realize my films are comedies until the last line has been delivered, and even then, most people don’t appear to get the joke. I would like to state that I actively encourage the audience to laugh along with White Worm.”

See this half-forgotten disasterpiece by the master of the form as it was MEANT to be seen – with an audience in on the joke! (@meakoopa)

Dumpster Raccoon Cinema’s QUEER SLASHER SUMMER CAMP SERIES crashes on with COMEDY HORROR PARODY CLASSIC – PSYCHO BEACH PARTY - with poster by @bonyfingers !

Florence (Lauren Ambrose) isn’t much of a hit with the hunky boys in her hometown, but she doesn’t care – all she wants to do is to SURF, baby! But when her host of extreme multiple personalities start acting up, and surfer boys and beach babes start turning up extremely dead, it’s up to her to figure out who might be slaughtering among the sand dunes – even if it’s her! If she doesn’t, she might never land the dreamy, brainy Starcat (Buffy star Nicholas Brendon) OR defeat her stuck-up sex-crazed rival, Marvel Ann (Amy Adams, somehow???)!

A delirious parody of the 1960s Malibu surf-rock movie craze made popular by Gidget, Elvis, Frankie Avalon & Annette Funicello, Psycho Beach Party is full of howlingly weird one-liners, breathlessly horny energy (oh those stubborn urine stains!) and a cheerful queer pluckiness that sails above its wildly un-PC language and tableaux. The underrated film takes one of the most “wholesome” genres in cinema history and turns it on its ear, then gives it a good thump with a hefty surfboard for good measure.

Along with live performance by @_carlyraestepson, video preshow, and cocktails by the @shamefultikito – all supported by @bay_street_video ! taken in Revue Cinema by @bonyfingers

Looks like we’re in for a bit of a heatwave over the next few days so it seems fitting to share this series illustrated by @bonyfingers for an article in @quebecsciencemag about dealing with extreme heat. AD @daniellesayer

Stay cool out there!
