Holy Freakin' Crap! Got tickets for the GFT's DoubleBill of House Horror ce soir.....very much looking forward to seeing Wes Craven's 1972 debut classic "The Last House On The Left" which has finally been passed to be viewed uncut in this country. The star, David Hess, is also coming to do a Q+A afterward but i can't hang about as i will then be going to view the late night cult classic that is....."Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!" which is my favourite of all the Russ Meyer classics. Go-go dancing chicks take off on a murderous drag racing killing spree across California, with mega boobs, bonkers dialogue and fast cars....fuckin'yaldi!!! But before all of this there is Ti West's film "House Of The Devil" which is set in the 80's and takes in a full lunar eclipse and satanic ritual, proper teatime viewing no less.
So i am doing a TRIPLE BILL this evening and i can because it's my birthday weekend and i feel a bit like the character Clarence Worley in 'True Romance' except i ain't seeing a Sonny Chiba Triple Header, just strictly gore, more gore then some pure tits-oot violence. All play and no work makes stuey a happy boy....
Here is a multitude of original poster artwork for these flicks, i guess that's where most of the obsession for these films is with me, the artwork.....well, that and the crazy nostalgia i get for them, i remember always staying up late to try to watch these classics and many others. And why? Because being scared out your wits is fun and really they just don't make them like they used to.........HORROR ON!!!
I'm just wondering if going to the Lucio Fulci DoubleBill tomorrow would be excessive......5 twisted terror tales in the space of twenty-four hours? weird? sick? or just totally awesome? who knows.....just keep reminding yourself....it's only a movie, it's only a movie, it's only a movie.....
