Sin, Vice, Drugs, Skinnydipping, and Serpiente!! All at the next Bizarro Movie Night!!

You heard it right, Fiends and Neighbors! The next BMN is May 1, Saturday night! And it's gonna be a lulu...An Orgy of Decadence, Despair, Drugs, and SKINNYDIPPING, Roadshow Grindhouse-style.

We'll be paying tribute to con-man/warped auteur Dwain Esper, a man who inflicted some of the strangest and seediest films known to man on an unsuspecting and titillation-starved Depression-era public--all under the guise of cautionary tales to rescue the Youth of our Nation from the dangers of, well, damned near everything!!

Admission's still free, and it's official: El Serpiente de Oro will be guest-hosting! Buckle up your seatbelts for a wild and warped ride!

Ready to Rock and Roll, Fiends and Neighbors??!

Hope so! That's what we wanna hear! In case you haven't gotten the word already, as a special tribute to Record Store Day, Bizarro Movie Night's going all Rock and Roll on Saturday!

Ye Olde Schlockologist has finally decided the programming for this Saturday's Bizarro-riffic presentation at the Aster Coffee Lounge, and you won't be disappointed, cats and kittens. We'll be throwing down the 1962 B-movie classic, WILD GUITAR!

The Beatles? Bah! Elvis? PfFFT! We've got Arch Hall Jr, the man with the sweetest blonde pompadour on the planet, busting out rockabilly jewels and clawing his way to the top of the Rock and Roll heap!! If you haven't seen the full-length version of this twist-fevered classic, you HAVEN'T LIVED, Fiends and Neighbors. Period.

Be there or be L7!

News Flash!! Next TWO Bizarro Movie Nights Scheduled!!

Hello again, Fiends and Neighbors! Facebook invites have gone out for it, but the next Bizarro Movie Night is officially scheduled for:

 Saturday April 17!!

In the interest of presenting an all-encompassing Whitman's Sampler of Strange, we're going to set next week's Bizarro Movie Night to a rock and roll backbeat!

Oh, and then April showers will bring May flowers--AND yet another Bizarro Movie Night at the Aster on Saturday May 1!! Mark yer calendars!

Ye Olde Schlockologist is planning on a spectacular spring and summer, so stick around, Daddy-O!

HIghlights from the March 20 Bizarro Movie Night!

Hello again, Fiends and Neighbors--

Thanks to all of you who made the last BMN the fun time it was! Those of you poor pathetic souls who, through some hideous miscarriage of God and nature, did not make it to witness the mayhem missed out on:

A super-special big-screen exhibition of El Serpiente de Oro and the Temple of Geek, with a customarily robust introduction from the film's star, legendary luchador El Serpiente de Oro!

All of the gory details on El Serpiente's encounter with the evil villano, Baron Birkenstock!

...And of course, the movie. Not just any movie, either, Fiends and Neighbors! We screened Attack of the Monsters, in which two little boys get abducted by a remote-control spaceship, flown to a far-off planet, and terrorized by a knife-blade-headed lizard and the two brain-eating Japanese space babes in tights who keep him on a leash. And it's a kid's film...

I'm feeling a little rock-and-roll coming on for the next one, folks. Stay tuned for more, more, more details in the days and weeks ahead! And thanks for continuing to support Bizarro Movie Night!!

Hey, Kids! Tonight's Bizarro Movie Night! And We've Got a Big-Screen Premiere!

Welcome back, Fiends and Neighbors! Updates, updates galore in Bizarro-Land...

Ye Olde Schlockologist recently interviewed film director/Seattle International Film Festival co-founder Dan Ireland for the SunBreak.com (check out part 1 here). Ireland's first feature, the wonderful The Whole Wide World, is only Bizarro in the most tangential of fashions (it's a subtle drama detailing the romance between Bizarro-worthy pulp author Robert E. Howard and schoolteacher Novalyne Price), but the director had a lot of interesting insights about the making of the film, and he did cover his years as a producer of films for Vestron Pictures. The latter gig included, ahem, some seriously Bizarro-Worthy movies...So don't be surprised if some of his choice stories about movies like Gothic and Lair of the White Worm make their way into this here Bizarro epicenter!

But the most pressing bit of news, natch, is the impending arrival of another Bizarro Movie Night! Tonight at 8pm, the Aster will be hosting yet another leap straight down the rabbit hole of strange cinema, and your host will once again be El Serpiente de Oro, 42nd Greatest Luchador of All Time! Tonight's movie will feature:

Remote-control spaceships!

Fire-breathing giant turtles!

Brain-eating Japanese space babes in tights!

And it's a kid's film!

But wait! There's MORE! Tonight's Bizarro Movie Night will feature a special Big-Screen Screening of El Serpiente and the Temple of Geek, the inspiring documentary on El Serpiente's visit to last week's Emerald City ComiCon! Brilliantly directed and edited by Serpiente's former tag-team amigo Ninja Pantera (Bob Suh),  Temple of Geek marks the veteran grappler's first onscreen appearance since 1985's El Serpiente de Oro Against the Soccer Vampires! Sure, you can watch Temple of Geek on your computer, but why just do that??! It'd be like just watching Avatar on YouTube (though admittedly less butt-numbingly cliched) and never seeing it on a big-ass screen!

As a special treat to all you loyal fiends and neighbors, here's a glimpse at a deleted scene from Temple of Geek, in which El Serpiente encounters a Magnificent Moustache and preaches the BMN Gospel!!

See you tonight, kids!!

Bizarro Movie Night TOMORROW NIGHT!!

Hello again, Fiends and Neighbors!

Tomorrow night, Bizarro Movie Night is unleashed once more on an unsuspecting public. And once again, said slab of cinematic dementia will be presented by guest host El Serpiente de Oro, 42nd greatest Luchador in Mexican history!

Serpiente did his part to spread the BMN gospel by vigorously flyer-ing the Emerald City ComiCon last week, and interviewing numerous luminaries at the Con. We're prepping a lengthier video of the mayhem, but for now, enjoy this YouTube interview with the Woman of Steel--Supergirl.




And BE AT THE ASTER COFFEE LOUNGE TOMORROW NIGHT, Fiends and Neighbors!

El Serpiente de Oro Takes Emerald City ComiCon in a Cage Match!

Fiends y neighbors, I painted the Emerald City Comic Con a bright shade of rojo last Saturday, visiting many celebrities, heroes, heroines, and monsters as Ambassador of Schlockology to Bizarro Movie Night.

My close amigo Ninja Pantera captured many memorable convention moments on film. Until those clips are thrown into the ring and beaten into edited submission, I present this exclusive interview with Supergirl to whet the appetite for Bizarro Movie Night!
