Bad Meaning Good

Monday, April 06 2009

DJ's Popstatic, Intel and The Burlington present a double feature event.

"Bad Meaning Good" A night of obscure and off-beat cult favorites from the glory days of trash cinema.

Our first installment will feature the cinematic stylings of wrestling superstar and Hollywood legend "Rowdy" Roddy Piper. These films have been hand picked and curated by Popstatic and Intel.

Showing first (8-10) HELL COMES TO FROGTOWN

In the radioactive wasteland of the future, Sam Hell is one of the last fertile men on the planet. A female organization intent on repopulating kidnaps Sam and sends him on a deadly mission to rescue - and - impregnate - a group of beautiful women held captive by the violent bipedal amphibian leader of Frogtown. Will Sam and his "loaded weapon" survive the mission?

Second Screening (10-12) JOHN CARPENTER'S THEY LIVE

They influence our decisions without us knowing it. They numb our sense without us feeling it. They control our lives without us realizing it. THEY LIVE. A rugged loner stumbles upon a terrifying discovery: ghoulish creatures are masquerading as humans while they lull the public into submission through subliminal advertising messages. Only specially made sunglasses make the deadly truth visible. Is it too late for our hero to save humanity?

After the movies Intel and Popstatic will close the night out on the turntables.

All this is FREE.
