Any suggestions/requests? A lot of our favorites are so hard to find on 35mm, but we're going to find three amazing films for this shindig. Share your thoughts with us. You should contact Will "The Thrill" Viharo. He runs the programming at the Parkway and Cerrito Speakeasy movie theaters up here in the Bay Area in Nor Cal, and he hosts a really cool B movie night once a month called Thrillville. He has a lot of cool and obscure prints, and might loan you one or two, or find a specific one from someone else, etc. He goes by the handle AquaZombie here on Tiki Central, and is good friends with Otto - in fact Will and Otto share a duplex apartment building. I think Will would be into helping you, he and his wife Monica drove down to the Tiki Invasion back in August 2006. As for movies I'd like to see, the one's that Grog mentioned, including Jason and the Argonauts, and The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad, would be cool - that sword fight against the skeletons in Jason and the Argonauts is amazing! Hercules is good too, I wish I could recommend Arnold Schwartennegger as Hercules, but that film is funny only because it is so terrible!!! Also Attack of the 50 Foot Woman, and The Amazing Colossal Man would be great too. Someone mentioned Russ Meyer - Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill! would be fun! I'm a big fan of car films, so American Graffiti, Vanishing Point, and especially Two Lane Black Top would be awesome as well! So that's my two cents. Looking forward to this event, see you in May!
