Sisko, I haven’t seen a couple of your movies. I’ve got some catching up to do. And Ant, I consider that high praise. But the Madman line I love is “Maaahs! Maad-man Maaas!”

Greetings and salutations. The following is just one of the film festival schedules we came up with. We tend to overthink things like this (Reefer kills brain cells…right)

Meet the Feebles-Songs and a hippo with a machine gun. Good times.
Fiend Without a Face-Invisible fuzzy slippers with antennae
Grease 2-Just Because
Requiem for a Dream-Because other drugs are bad
Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band-The Bee Gee’s, Alice Cooper, Aerosmith, and Steve Martin. Yeah, baby!
Flash Gordon-For Max Von Sydow and the football game.
Sex Kittens go to College-Robots, monkeys, and boobs
Day of the Dead-Because people might be in a good mood right about now
Andy Warhol’s Frankenstein-Because we need one 3-D flick
Surf Nazi’s Must Die-For the title alone
Shock Treatment-Unlike Rocky Horror, it’s a good movie
Ilsa-She Wolf of the SS-We need one Ilsa flick
and we end with us doing a live riff on
Let my Puppets Come-Since we started with puppets

Namaste.

I would let Bobby Weird programme our ‘thon in a heartbeat. That dude has taste thats a xerox of my own. RIght down to that improbable shitter MADMAN - we use the line “He’s shreal” since seeing it decades ago.

Many of these great suggestions above we’ve played over the years. I can tell you one of the greatest experiences was seeing TORTURE DUNGEON at 5am and thinking it one of best big screen experiences I’ve ever had.

And B-Sol’s list would destroy everyone.

BTW… Awesome list, Pat_Bondage… The August Underground movies are amazingly disturbing.

“Who made Who” is my favorite ACDC song as well! Hate MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE with a passion, however… Proof that Stephen King should keep his day job.

And you’re right. 1968 NOTLD is the only version there is, but I’ll give Savini props for doing an excellent job on the remake in a no-win scenario. Patricia Tallman was also excellent as Barbara and that should have been her breakout.

The following list proves that I have NO business sequencing film festivals for profit:

1. Spider Baby (1968)
2. Paris Is Burning (1990)
3. The Gong Show Movie (1980)
4. Grey Gardens (1975)
5. Beneath the Valley of the Ultra-Vixens (1979) (narrowly beat out “Aphrodite” (1982); though I do so love to watch hip asexuals squirm during hardcore sex, this would be more fun on the BIG screen. Shit, maybe two screens at once!)
6. The Killing (1956) (Yes, it’s a bit of a cool-down after the predecessor, but then, so is ANYTHING)
7. Yojimbo (1961)
8. Here’s To Love! (2008) (the part of the fest where you tend to fall asleep anyway…plus, as good a place as any to see who here is epileptic!)
9. Savages (1972) (Zzzzzzz)
10. The 5000 Fingers of Dr. T (1953) (bring the kids!)
11. Huie’s Sermon/God’s Angry Man (both 1980) (these shorts are verifiably good breakfast fare)
12. 200 Motels (1971)
13. Pound (1970)
