Last month director Quentin Tarantino started production here in France on his next film, Inglourious Basterds (incorrect spelling intentional). Last night I saw good ol Jackie Brown at the Cinémathèq...

Russ Meyers Motor Psycho , made earlier the same year, can be seen as a kind of dry run for his 1965 masterpiece Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill! The formula is more or less the same, but with the genders...

MOAR LIKE BAKUNYUU HUNTERS AMIRITE? Bakuretsu Hunters is basically a shittier, not funny version of Slayers with bigger boobs and no fish mans. The above sequence was really the only part of the show that was in any way memorable for me. Basically, it made me lol super hard. While fighting the endboss, [...]

Been a while since I mentioned this film on the site so here is the new trailer for the movie, Bitch Slap. It may well be a big pile of rubbish but it does look like a lot of fun in a Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill! Russ Meyer kind of vibe. As well as the three female leads mentioned below it also stars the mighty Kevin Sorbo and Lucy Lawless along with their respective partners from the old

Ingredients for BITCH SLAP: boobs, guns, breasts, grindhouse flavor, cleavage, green-screen, juggs, cars, cans, and violence. If that doesn't get you to check out the trailer below, you may already be dead. Although I'm pretty sure I can hear the remains of Russ Meyer applauding. Read More...

I was thinking in work about the idea of the veil of middle class respectability. It occured to me that Russ Meyer made this a theme of so many of his films, not so much the middle class aspect but the veil of respectability. As with Aldo Lado in Who Saw Her Die? he sees dodgy clergy and religious hypocrites ( Mudhoney ) but also the theme of what goes on behind the veil of respectability, for example...

VeeDub in Germany has just issued their numbers for the past nine months of 2008. Viewed through the prevailing “the world is coming to an end” perspective, VW’s financial results are financial pornography, performing better than the male lead in a Russ Meyer movie. We’re talking a 15 percent gain, a money shot of more [...]

If Paris Hilton's My New BFF were a lesser show, I'd be able post the flash of brilliant stupidity above, say, "This is all you need to know about this show," and be done with it. But the fact is...

Roger Ebert has written a nice piece about Tura Satana, Faster, Pussycat! Kill Kill! , and memories of his friend and collaborator Russ Meyer.

Okay Chicagoans you decide- Is it a confession to say I’ve never seen Faster Pussycat Kill Kill? Event organizer Rusty Nails thought so. He’s probably right but HEY I’ve just been waiting for the right opportunity. To clarify I’m not a big Russ Meyer fan (or of tittie flicks in general) but there is a point where I can ignore the cheesecake content of his stuff enough to appreciate the all out twonk...

ON MONDAY AFTERNOON, customers at Mondo Kim’s on St. Mark’s Place in the East Village browsed through finds like a Tomcats vinyl album recorded in Madrid in 1966; and Russ Meyer’s Faster, Pussycat! Kill! … Kill! , a self-described “ode to violence in women” that’s “filmed in glorious black and blue.” On the third floor, video store manager Ricky Sutton presided over a collection organized by genres...

11 p.m. Diminished Men Have you ever passed by the "soundtracks" section at your local record store and wondered who buys those mid-'60s spaghetti-Western-surf-vampire themes on 180-gram vinyl? Aside from Quentin Tarantino, that is? This is precisely the territory Diminished ...

While film critic Roger Ebert was pulling our collective leg, according to the GOP's VP nominee, man and dinosaurs once frolicked together. Who knew Hanna-Barbera cartoons were actually teaching God's word?!
