SUMMARY:Donkey Punch
DESCRIPTION:Sex\, drugs\, and beautiful people on board a luxurious yacht
  in the Mediterranean—not your typical setting for a horror film. But Do
 nkey Punch isn't your typical horror film. Three gorgeous ladies on holi
 day in a Mediterranean beach town are determined to let their hair down 
 and leave their troubles behind. The festivities begin at a nightclub\, 
 where libations flow and libidos grow. As luck would have it\, they enco
 unter three charming lads who are more than eager to provide them with w
 hat they are looking for. Collectively they make their way to the yacht 
 where the men crew. Caught up in the hedonistic wave created by the sexu
 al tension\, and spurred by the fact that the yacht's owner is away\, th
 ey throw caution to the wind and head out to sea. This is where the terr
 or begins. What's remarkable about Olly Blackburn's debut feature is the
  way he builds suspense over the film's first half. He takes his time in
  developing the characters\, plot\, and place\, and it pays off. He is a
 ided by an impressive cast of fresh faces who are at ease with each othe
 r and their situation\, as well as by the lush Mediterranean scenery\, w
 hich is perfectly captured and appears both serene and menacing. Blackbu
 rn's gut-wrenching\, nerve-shredding Donkey Punch stimulates the senses 
 and shatters conventions

SUMMARY:The Wizard of Gore
DESCRIPTION:Review from ClassicHorror.com (one of our sponsors)\n\nH.G.Le
 wis' signature style (excessive gore\, bad special effects\, and acting\
 nabilities that would horrify most Bond Girls)\, is at peak form in *Wiz
 ard of\nGore*. The movie follows a haphazard storyline where an evil mag
 ician\nhypnotizes women\, and then sticks them with drills\, hatchets\, 
 and everything\nbut the kitchen sink. Of course\, they awaken without a 
 scratch on them.\nHowever\, these women end up dead days later\, killed 
 by the same mechanisms\nthat were used on them when they were hypnotized
 . Part of the reason *Wizard\nof Gore* is my favorite Lewis film\, is du
 e to the fact that the plot is\nactually somewhat creative (unlike *Bloo
 d\nFeast* which is\nbasically just a crazy guy hacking up people and pul
 ling out their\ntongues). The man who played the Wizard (Ray Sager) shou
 ld probably be\nbanned by the film industry so celluloid does not have t
 o be corrupted with\nmore of his robotic performances. However\, in this
  film\, I couldn't have\npictured a better actor for the role. H.G. Lewi
 s has a tendency to bring out\nthe best in the most "talent challenged" 
 people.\n\nThis plot is absolutely ridiculous. Throughout the movie's co
 urse\, the whole\ntown knows this happens and people STILL go to his sho
 w and women STILL\nvolunteer to get hypnotized. Are these people from Da
 n Quayle-Ville or\nsomething? Still\, this lapse of realism adds to the 
 campy quality of the\nfilm. However\, the camp could not even begin to r
 each the levels the film\nachieves without the special effects. Or\, sho
 uld I say\, un-special effects?\nAll I can say is that the Heinz company
  must have been ecstatic with the\ncases of ketchup Lewis had to order t
 o make this movie. The deaths were\nactually pretty creative (proof of a
  very sick and twisted mind at work. As\nmuch as I love this movie\, I w
 ould pay a lot of money NOT to have to meet\nthe writer in a dark alley 
 EVER). However\, the special effects behind the\ndeaths were very bad. B
 ut\, this makes the movie so frickin' entertaining.\nH.G. Lewis is one d
 irector that can carry a movie on bad special effects.\nHis movies are b
 asically gore for gore's sake\, and that's what makes them so\nfun to wa
 tch.\n\nIf quality horror is what you're looking for\, then either pass 
 over this\nfilm\, or get legally drunk before viewing it (it helps if yo
 u watch it with\na bunch of your friends who would also flunk a breathal
 izer test). However\,\nif you are in the Campy Camp\, this is required v
 iewing for you. People often\ncriticize this film for being too disgusti
 ng and calling it the "Lose Your\nLunch" film. That is incredibly inaccu
 rate. I'm banking that you'll lose\ndinner\, breakfast\, and your midnig
 ht snack\, as well.

SUMMARY:Rapturious
DESCRIPTION:Enter the world of Rapturious\, an up and coming music artist
  (Robert Oppel) who has a self-destructive drug habit. When his dealer (
 Hoya Guerra\, bassist for "Madball") presents the rapper with a new drug
 \, dark and murderous hallucinations begin. But are they really tricks o
 f the mind or are these crimes really happening? While his manager (horr
 or movie maven Debbie Rochon) becomes increasingly concerned about her c
 lient's unpredictable behavior\, Rapturious begins to see demons\, leadi
 ng to the revelation of an evil entity hell-bent on claiming the musicia
 n's soul. The film also features a demented performance by Joe Bob Brigg
 s\, Cinqué Lee (Coffee and Cigarettes) and Amin Joseph (Stephen King's T
 he Mist) Rapturious was directed by Kamal Ahmed (The Jerky Boys) and was
  executively produced by Artie Lange of The Howard Stern Show.\n \nAs a 
 special bonus before the feature we will be showing a short also directe
 d by Kamal Ahmed called Uncle Freddy. The short film stars Robert Oppel 
 and Al Burgo of Rapturious as well as features cameos from John Noonan a
 nd Tommy Houlihan of God Has a Rap Sheet.\n \nFans in attendance will re
 ceive an exclusive letter from director Kamal Ahmed about the making of 
 the film.

SUMMARY:Vampire Hookers
DESCRIPTION:Review from 10K Bullets\n\nTwo sailors go looking for their f
 riend who was last seen going into a\ncemetery with a prostitute.\n\n*Va
 mpire Hookers* was directed by Cirio H. Santiago whose other notable\nfi
 lms include *T.N.T. Jackson\, Ebony\, Ivory\, and Jade\, Escape from Wom
 en's\nHell Hole* and *Caged Fury*. *Vampire Hookers* was also released u
 nder the\ntitle *Cemetery Girls*. The plot for *Vampire Hookers* is simp
 le and not\nhard to follow. Sure it is absurd story with horrible acting
  and awful\ndialog that tries to be funnier than it is\, but this is all
  part of it's\ncharm.\nJohn Carradine is cast as the lead vampire John P
 eter Richmond. His\nperformance reminds me of the work that Béla Lugosi 
 did with director Ed\nWood. Despite all the things that are wrong with t
 his film there are many\nthings that work like Pavo\, an Igor looking se
 rvant who helps the vampires.\nThere is plenty to laugh at like Pavo's f
 latulent problem and the sailors\nhitting on some trannies.  Ultimately 
 *Vampire Hookers* is a bad film that\ncan be fun if you go in with low e
 xpectations.

 hat they are looking for. Collectively they make their way to the yacht 
 where the men crew. Caught up in the hedonistic wave created by the sexu
 al tension\, and spurred by the fact that the yacht's owner is away\, th
 ey throw caution to the wind and head out to sea. This is where the terr
 or begins. What's remarkable about Olly Blackburn's debut feature is the
  way he builds suspense over the film's first half. He takes his time in
  developing the characters\, plot\, and place\, and it pays off. He is a
 ided by an impressive cast of fresh faces who are at ease with each othe
 r and their situation\, as well as by the lush Mediterranean scenery\, w
 hich is perfectly captured and appears both serene and menacing. Blackbu
 rn's gut-wrenching\, nerve-shredding Donkey Punch stimulates the senses 
 and shatters conventions

SUMMARY:Frazetta: Painting with Fire
DESCRIPTION:For the last half century\, Frank Frazetta has dominated the 
 world of Fantasy Art with his images of fierce warriors\, helpless princ
 esses\, grotesque monsters\, and fantastic creatures\, all set in the mo
 st lavish landscapes. Frazetta is best known for his paintings of Robert
  E. Howard's quintessential sword and sorcery hero "Conan the Barbarian"
 . Today\, a Frank Frazetta painting can fetch up to $250\,000 on the ope
 n market.\n \nIn this documentary\, director Lance Laspina lifts the cur
 tain on an artist who has largely avoided the public eye. Painting with 
 Fire tells of a fascinating life and what Frazetta's artwork means to fu
 ture generations. The film is not only a love letter to the art form\, b
 ut to the artist as well\, tracing his life from his Brooklyn childhood 
 to the present\, and focusing on Frazetta's unique combination of skills
  and intuition. An oil painting done at the age of eight reveals Frazett
 a's inborn gift and footage of the 72-year-old artist painting left-hand
 ed (his right arm was incapacitated by a stroke) portrays indomitable wi
 llpower. This film is a must see for every comic book and graphic novel 
 fan. Share an intimate moment with this artistic virtuoso as we unfold F
 rank Frazetta's extraordinary life story.\n \nFrazetta Comics artist Jay
  Fotos will be on hand with an exclusive Q&A about working the Frazetta

 ews on next years additions such as The Silver Warrior\, Combat\, Neande
 rthal\, Freedom\, and Nightstaker: all based on Frank Frazetta's amazing
  art.\n \nFrazetta Comics will be on hand and available for purchase all

SUMMARY:SUKIYAKI WESTERN DJANGO
DESCRIPTION:Closing night film!\n\n"Japanese maverick Takashi Miike has o
 ne of his wildest ideas yet - and that's saying something - in SUKIYAKI 
 WESTERN DJANGO." (Variety) Lurid\, over-the-top\, bizarre\, outrageous\,
  completely hilarious  and that's just Quentin Tarantino's performance i
 n SUKIYAKI WESTERN DJANGO. Takashi Miike's English-language spaghetti we
 stern is a remake of Sergio Corbucci's 1966 classic\, DJANGO\, about a h
 ard-bitten gun runner who wanders into a desert town with a gatling gun 
 hidden in a coffin. A huge sensation when it was released (spawning over
  thirty unofficial sequels and remakes) here Takashi Miike teleports the
  story to 19th Century Japan and mixes it with liberal doses of A FISTFU
 L OF DOLLARS and YOJIMBO\, then adds generous helpings of female gunslin
 gers\, samurai cowboys and plants that grow babies. A nameless gunman (H
 ideaki Ito) rides into Yuta\, Nebada\, a dusty flyspeck of a town that's
  caught in the middle of a gang war between the Heiki (in red\, and led 
 by hot-headed madman\, Koichi Sato) and the Genji (in cool white\, led b
 y baby-faced bad boy\, Yusuke Iseya). Setting the two gangs against each
  other and hoping he can pick up the cash left on the table after they w
 ipe each other out\, our hero soon finds things are a bit more complicat
 ed than he assumed. There's the mother of a half-Genji\, half-Heiki kid\
 , played by Yoshino Kimura who is out for revenge against the Heiki\; he
 r mother\, who runs the local general store and who is secretly a legend
 ary gunslinger herself (played by Kaori Momoi\, MEMOIRS OF A GEISHA)\, a
 n indestructible sheriff and more mind-bending\, cartoonish ultra-violen
 ce than you thought could ever possibly exist\, all scored to a thunderi
 ng\, electrifying spaghetti western soundtrack. \n\nSpeaking a "Hooked o
 n Phonics" version of English\, the cast wades into this cross-cultural 
 mash-up with guns blazing\, slaughtering anything that moves and taking 
 no prisoners in this off the hook Western that manages to load a missile
  with everything cool about samurai movies\, westerns\, spaghetti wester
 ns and Takashi Miike movies and launch it into your eyes. \n-Review from
  New York Asian Film Festival
