Nope. Mutato Musika on the Sunset Strip.

Just re-watched "City of the Living Dead" a few nights ago, which does indeed have teleporting zombies.
I liked the first V/H/S okay, so if you're calling that a massive disappointment, then I'm down for the sequel.
"Creepshow" is a great kiddie film. At the age of 12 I saw it three Goddamn times in the theater, just like "Heavy Metal". It could have been better; it has pacing issues, like most of Romero's movies. But it was certainly more colorful and cartoonish and scary than the Amicus films that predated it (Tales from the…
LA walking tour tip: After visiting Bradbury, go just a block down the street and visit the Grand Central Market. All the food there is disgusting, but it's pretty interesting. Then pay your dollar and hop onto the Angel's Flight Vernicular and ride it up to the top, feelin' like John Fante. Then walk a few minutes…
For me, he'll always be remembered for "What's Up with Youth".
It's also dull.
I worked a "con" a few weeks ago and saw him, but couldn't think of anything to say. "Bucket of Blood" is his definitive film, in my opinion, so I still always picture him wearing a beret.
All of his mannequins are female, except for one of a guy who does nothing but sit on the couch, get stoned and play Xbox.
So gross. Made even more unforgettable by the fact that the "kid" was played by a 30-year old midget, and the filmmakers thought no one would notice.
Justin Bieber should star in a remake of "Sleepaway Camp".
Exactly. It's like the maniacs made their own movies, they're so off-kilter.
the domestic DVD on Netflix goes by that name, but I don't like that title. I think the imdb page lists seven or eight titles it was released under.
Maniac is definitely the hardest film of the three to defend. It's a sleazy exploitation film that aims to be upsetting, and not much more. But Driller Killer is really smart and provocative, and unlike Maniac, it's often funny.
I'm guessing the dude in the above photo was the real-life inspiration for Weird Harold, of Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids fame.
I'd be happy with "The Beyond", "Grapes of Death" or "Living Dead at the Manchester Morgue", but doubt any of those are going to happen.
Definitely not a fan of the first one, even. For a slow-paced, completely un-scary, but still weirdly fascinating zombie movie, I'd recommend "Burial Ground" instead.
I'm thinking "Maniac", "Don't Go in the House" and "Driller Killer" would make for a nice pathological triple feature of first-person horror. I like all of them pretty much equally, and all three were filmed in and around New York City, America's scum-pit in the 70's, now just one big Starbuck's.
Grapes of Death is the best Rollin film I've seen, and one of my favorite films of the genre, but I've tried to sit through at least four of his other films, including Zombie Lake, and they're just so awful.
Surely you're forgetting the groundbreaking tour-de-force that is "Deadly Friend".
