SUPERTRASH This Weekend

This is it! The big Portland junk movie fest is on this weekend, February 1-3. I'm mentioning it because I submitted a poster for their Fantagraphics-sponsored "Re-Imagined Cult Movie Poster" art show (as seen in this post). Check out the Supertrash Myspace profile for showtimes and details. I wish I could go and see Mad Love with Peter Lorre and Colin Clive. I'll just have to invite those guys over and watch the DVD instead.

Supertrash: Venus In Furs Poster Redo

I did this for the Supertrash Film Fest / Art Show that's upcoming on February 1-3 in Portland, Ore. I'm not sure if they automatically accept whatever's sent in or if it's juried somehow, but we'll see. Pals Tom Neely, Chris Cilla, Alex Holden and Jim Rugg have also done one, probably others I don't know about.

Anyway, I did Venus in Furs, a terrible movie from the late 60's about a horny jazz musician and a hot naked ghost(?) lady, and a hot jazz singer lady who never gets naked and three murderous jerks. Don't bother watching it.

This is also my excuse for not having a new weekly strip for today. Not the real reason, but it's good enough. I may have a strip for tomorrow. Sorry!

POINT BLANK

I just picked up this DVD for $4 today at a CompUSA that's going out of business. You gotta see it if you haven't yet. Lee Marvin "makes love" to Angie Dickinson and then punches her out. Actually it was in The Killers that Marvin punches out Dickinson. In Point Blank, Dickinson knocks out Marvin with a pool cue and then they get it on. Lee Marvin also gets so mad that he shoots the phone and makes Carol O'Connor wet his pants.
