Pick your cinema, get a nudge before it leaves screens.
One of my absolute favorite things (that I need to make a list of) is when a 50’s monster/sci-fi movie is beamed into the cotton candy neon 1980’s—touched up with plenty of goop, gloop, over exagerated caricatures, and plenty of lampooning. It’s almost a cartoon—a campy delightful masterpiece for idiots like me.
Don't you hate it when you're about to swap partners with bisexual Greek swingers and Pluto's sanitation department accidentally sends a rogue beam of waste into your satellite dish and then you have to turn off your TV for 200 years?
One of those films whose genius rests not so much in its story or performances as it does in its technical work. Everything in this movie looks fabulous, from the wacky set design to the vibrant and colorful cinematography to the well-executed costumes, make-up, and hairstyles, and most of all to the fantastic slimy creature design, which is both original and familiar (am I the only one who thinks he looks like a deformed version of Pokemon's Grimer?).All in all, it takes a while to get insanely funny, but once we get to all the wonderful makeup and creature work spectacle, it's nonstop 80s campy fun.TODAY SCHEDULETerrorvisionFistful of VengeanceSissyOut of the Bllue
