HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN (Jason Eisner, 2011)

I watched a most excellent new film the other night called HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN. It's basically a homage to all those great 80's schlock films (paticularly of the Toxic Avenger / Class Of Nuke 'Em HighTroma variety), and happily ends up being far more entertaining all the way through than most of those films actually were!

Based on the winning trailer of the same name from Robert Rodriguez's South by Southwest Grindhouse trailers contest, the film-makers used their new-found connections to cast Rutger Hauer as the titular Hobo With A Shotgun for the feature length version, and by god he's perfect!

The whole thing really is just about the perfect 80's schlock movie, it's got Rutger, it's got a hooker with a heart of gold, it's got this awesome white suited villain called The Drake, it's got these weird robot monster things that appear at some point and should seem really stupid but it just seems like a perfectly natural progression for the movie to take.

The preview doesn't actually give that good an impression of the tone of the film, it's a lot more gnarly and humorous in a Troma sort of way than it appears here, but you get to see a bit of the nice splatter anyway...

Highly recomennded! If you like this sort of the thing.

Thanks to Amanda Roff, currently toiling in the intellectual salt mines of Berkeley University, for hipping me to this recent american dance craze. Inspired by that old movie you ain't thought about since back then, Weekend At Bernies, it's a jiggly sorta zombie dance where you Move Like Bernie! See the dope song and video below for demonstration. I'm sure it's totally out of date in america by now, but i'm catching onto it just in time for Halloween!

SIMONE PAGE JONES PRESENTS "THE LOVEBIRDS"

Simone is rather delightful. That's her up there on the left. She's a great singer, all round fabulous entertainer and just generally an all round gas to be in the same room as. If there was a Simone Page Jones channel on TV, I would sit around watching that shit all day.

So she has this new cabaret show she's written that's premiering this Friday night at The Arts Festival Lounge at the Arts Centre. 9:30. Usually if someone asked me to come to their Cabaret show I would smile and nod and then arrange to have myself trapped in some kind of mine shaft so I won't have to go. But so confident am I in Simone's powers of entertainment, I'm gonna go to this one!

I'm gonna be doing the radio show live from the same venue that night too, so if you can manage it, come down and hang out and so hi between five and seven and then stickaround for The Lovebirds.

It's also playing a couple other dates, 14th of October & 21st of October.

SOME COWBOY SONGS

I like cowboy songs...

ON THE RADIO

This friday we gonna be doing the show live from the arts festival loung in the arts centre cafe, down at... THE ARTS CENTRE! So come and down and jiggle with me and the PBS gang. We'll have Stella Angelico stopping by to do a little live performance, and afterwards you can stick around and see Simone Page Jones' new show "The Lovebirds" which is premiering in the very same room at 9pm. Everything Simone does is great so don't miss it!

On Saturday night we got SATURDAY NIGHT FISH FRY at the gem with me and pierre and the famous CREOLE SPICED PORK SPARE RIBS, and also SO YOU THINK YOU CAN CRAMPS? cramps tribute gig at The tote that Hayley from Super Wild horses is organizing. heaps o'cool band, with brides Of christ playing at 11:30 ft special guest drummer renato from Puta Madre Bros / johnnie and the Johnnie Johnnies.
