DIETRICH & VON STERNBERG

FASTER, PUSSYCAT! KILL! KILL! (1965, 35mm)

Tree beautiful, nihilistic go-go dancers travel across the Mojave
Desert wreaking havoc and terrorizing everyone they encounter.
Te flms imagery is as memorable as its heroines are pissed of
and hedonistic. Almost certainly Meyers greatest flm, it delivers
an explosive blend of salacious trash and snappy visual style. An
easy contender for the greatest exploitation flm of all time.
WILD GALS OF THE NAKED WEST (1962, 35mm)
Tis movie reaches so far beyond other contemporaneous nudie
cuties that its arms must be 12 feet long. Russ Meyers truly
incredible early triumphs are the astonishing result of mixing
Jacques Tati style clowning, movie-going Americas prurient in-
terest in nudie movies, the iconography of classic Westerns, and
boldly colorful minimalism in a swirling hot tub of inspiration.
Peerless pop perfection.
UP! (1976, 35mm)
Hitler-esque renegade-ex-Nazi-in-hiding Adolf Schwartz is mur-
dered in his Northern Californian castle when someone drops
a frenzied piranha into his bathtub while hes in it, but the flm
quickly turns its attention away from the resulting whodunit
and instead tracks the sexploits of Margo Winchester (Raven de
la Croix), who is new to town and quickly involves herself with
pretty much every local man. A murder mystery la Meyer. Tis
flm is completely insane.
MUDHONEY (1965, 35mm)
Horny hillbillies and ornery old cusses try to lay their greasy
hands on gorgeous country cousin Lorna Maitland in Russ
Meyers epic of ribaldry and violence made from the juice of life.
Tis bawdy barnyard pastiche would turn Lil Abner creator Al
Capp green with envy. Steinbeck with sex! Tobacco Road XXX!
Featuring beautiful b&w photography, this is simply one of the
best-looking movies of its kind that youll ever see.
BEYOND THE VALLEY OF THE DOLLS (1970, 35mm)
Te members of all-girl rock band the Kelly Afair get roped into
a web of intrigues after arriving in Los Angeles and quickly as-
cending to local stardom following an impromptu concert at the
mansion of pop producer and snake oil salesman Z-Man. Not an
actual sequel to VALLEY OF THE DOLLS, this is a delirious
standalone detonation of Hollywood mayhem. A truly legendary
masterpiece written by Roger Ebert.
An actor-director match made in Hollywood heaven: Josef von
Sternberg found the perfect muse for his sumptuous experiments
in lighting and mise-en-scne in the glamorous Marlene Dietrich.
Teir seven flms together constitute one of the most dazzling
runs of creativity in the history of the movies (Dave Kehr).
SHANGHAI EXPRESS (1932, 35mm)
Tis tale of revolutionary China is one of the most beautifully
photographed flms ever made, and the ultimate example of
how Hollywood could enhance a stars natural beauty through
its expertise in the aesthetics of shadow. A beautiful temptress
re-kindles an old romance while trying to escape her past during
a tension-packed train journey. Dietrich never looked more
ravishing, and Sternberg remains true to his uniquely dazzling
and unapologetic romanticism.
DISHONORED (1931, 35mm)
Sternbergs tale of sexual sacrifce, disguised as an espionage
melodrama, opens in 1915, when strange fgures emerge from
the dust of the falling Austrian empire. Marlene Dietrich is
the prostitute who reinvents herself as the glamorous, Mata
Hari-like spy X-27, using her intoxicating yet elusive charms
and a few well-chosen propslipstick, a pair of stockings, a
piano, and a pussycatto steal hearts and state secrets for her
country, only to be done in by her infatuation with an agent
from Austrias most hated rival, Mother Russia.
THE SCARLET EMPRESS (1934, 35mm)
Filmmaker-svengali von Sternberg escalates his obsession with
screen legend Marlene Dietrich in this lavish depiction of sex
and deceit in the eighteenth-century Russian court. A self-pro-
claimed relentless excursion into style, the pairs sixth collab-
oration follows the exploits of Princess Sophia as she evolves
from trembling innocent to cunning sexual libertine Catherine
the Great. With operatic melodrama, famboyant visuals, and
a cast of thousands, this ornate spectacle represents the apex of
cinematic pageantry by Hollywoods master of artifce.
THE DEVIL IS A WOMAN (1935, 35mm)
Dietrich and von Sternberg headed to Spain for their fnal
collaboration, in which she plays Concha Perez, a beautiful
seductress whose fckle ways drive rival suitors to extremes.
Sternbergs coldly formalist approach lends the melodramatic
proceedings a cruel, ironic edge as passions and tempers boil
over in an abstract world of glittering surfaces. THE DEVIL
IS A WOMAN is essentially of a translation of the Sternberg/
Dietrich relationship into visual poetry and metaphor. Dietrich
steadfastly maintained that it was her favorite of the flms they
made together.
THE WILD ANGELS (1966, 35mm)
Peter Fonda stars as brooding Angels chieftain Heavenly Blues.
When his pal Loser (Bruce Dern) is shot by police, Blues
attempts to bury him in a small town, but the locals resist, and
a brawl ensues. Audiences and critics were alternately appalled
and thrilled by the extensive drug use and violence, but beneath
ANGELS leathery hide beats the heart of a Western, especially
in its ruminations on personal freedom.
SINNERS BLOOD (1969, 35mm)
SINNERS BLOOD couldnt care less about exposition,
plot, or tact. In lieu, the flm is obsessed with cultivating as
much quaint, late-60s sleaze as possible. Boobs. Asses. Incest.
Priest-gore. Whatevers handy. Teres no strategy here just
a bunch of random sleaze swathed over a backdrop of dusty,
small-town America. Te gut-ripping truth about a girl named
Penny and kill-for-kicks cycle gang who in one single, shocking
day, set the whole town ablaze with terror!
RUSS MEYER
DIETRICH/STERNBERG
RUSS MEYER
SHE-DEVILS ON WHEELS (1968, 35mm)
Te Man-Eaters, an all-girl motorcycle gang, spend their time
terrorizing a local community, race each other for frst pick of
their male groupie stud line, and throw raucous orgies in their
clubhouse. Gonzo sex and violence courtesy of director H.G.
Lews. Shot in 2 weeks for $50,000 and using a cast of mostly
real life biker chicks, this flm has a poetry all its own.
RUN, ANGEL, RUN! (1969, 16mm)
He squealed on his gang and the word was out... WASTE HIM!
Angel (big William Smith) quits the Devils Advocates motorcy-
cle gang after selling a biker-expose story to a national magazine.
He settles on a California sheep ranch with his girlfriend, but
four of his sadistic ex-riding buddies show up seeking vengeance.
HELLS ANGELS FOREVER (1983, 35mm)
Te only movie actually MADE BY the Hells Angels--they
started in 1972 and didnt fnish it till eleven years later--this
documentary is the drive-in GANDHI. - Joe Bob Briggs
THE LOSERS (1970, 35mm)
Whats even more violent and brutal than an American biker
gang high on cheap gas, cheaper grass and truckstop pharmaceu-
ticals, burning a trail of rubber and mayhem along the highways
and byways of America? How about an American biker gang in
Vietnam with a license to kill and specially outftted lethal war
hogs? Tats the hook here and were happy to report its as good
as it sounds. Tis movie is like a 30 gallon drum full of concen-
trated violence set on fre and rolling downhill right at you!

THE BEAST OF YUCCA FLATS / CONRAD BROOKS
VS. THE WEREWOLF (1961 / 1993, 16mm / VHS)
Welcome to the fringes of anti-logic. Shot guerilla-style by Hol-
lywood outsider Coleman Francis, THE BEAST OF YUCCA
FLATS is a what happens when Luis Buuel loses a bet with
Edward D. Wood, Jr. in Tor Johnsons kitchen. Tirty years lat-
er, Chicagos David Te Rock Nelson unleashed his frst full
length movie on video cassette -- CONRAD BROOKS VS.
THE WEREWOLF. Starring Ed Wood right-hand-man Con-
rad Brooks (who appears in BEAST OF YUCCA FLATS), this
movie is a cascade of no-f madness, an extension of Coleman
Franciss unhinged ambition. Experiencing this double feature
will be unlike anything else in the universe.
FRIDAY THE 13TH: THE FINAL CHAPTER (1984,
35mm)
SPECIAL PRE-FRIDAY THE 13th CELEBRATION AND
THIRTIETH ANNIVERSARY SCREENING! Tis is by far the
darkest, meanest and most hump-hating chapter in the career of
Jason Vorhees. Join us as Crispin Glover, 12-year-old Corey Feld-
man and LAST AMERICAN VIRGIN star Lawrence Monoson
face of against Crystal Lakes population controller!
SLITHIS (1978, 35mm)
When the toxicity of Los Angeles reaches alarming new heights,
SLITHIS!! -- a radioactive beastie who resembles a decayed water-
melon -- prowls the waterfronts of Venice Beach. If CREATURE
FROM THE BLACK LAGOON was updated by hoboes on a
quaalude binge, it might feel something like this movie.
DONT PANIC (1988, 35mm)
No Mexican gore-war scores quite like this. Tis English-lan-
guage Freddy Krueger rip-of follows familiar formulas, yet
somehow manages to run completely of the rails of human
logic. Maybe its because the 30-year-old teenage protagonist
spends half the flm running around in jammies with cartoon
dinosaurs on them?
THE JUNKMAN (1982, 16mm)
If burning rubber and twisted metal put a spring in your step,
then THE JUNKMAN is going to fy you to the moon. Just
check Te Guinness Book of World Records where from 1982
to 2003 THE JUNKMAN held the record for most vehicles
destroyed in a single motion picture. Tis is one of the great,
largely unheralded car chase movies, and were proud to present
it on 16mm with its original soundtrack.
ENEMY TERRITORY (1987, 35mm)
A bunch of Vampires chase a ghost around an apartment
building, but this is no horror movie. In fact, theres nothing su-
pernatural about it. Te Vampires are a tough, black gang who
control the central building of a massive housing project, and
ghost is the pet name for the white insurance agent who has
become their prey. Taking inspiration from THE WARRIORS
and ASSAULT ON PRECINCT 13, this is a single location,
all-in-one-night action thriller that delivers on suspense, laughs,
and maximum fun.
A HARD DAY FOR ARCHIE (1974, 35mm)
Tings never got this steamy in Riverdale. And the publishers of
Archie Comics were intent to keep it that way. Tis sex comedy
spoof of Archie Comics went through a few title changes thanks
to legal challenges, but its still about a high-schooler named Ar-
chie, his love interest Betty, and his good buddy Mughead (well,
OK, some character names are slightly modifed). A picture
postcard of New York in the 70s and the clever, dirty comedies
of a bygone era.
GRIZZLY (1976, 35mm)
An indestructible, two-story-tall grizzly bear has realized that
human beef beats the hell out of nuts and berries, and its up
to Ranger Mike and his hotheaded gunman Don to bring the
carnivorous menace to its hairy knees. But when a couple dozen
drunk-ass hunters enter the forest on a suicide mission to nail
the beast, count on a tidal wave of pine-scented bloodshed.
Teres no disputing GRIZZLY is the third most upsetting PG
movie ever made!
AGFA REEL ONE PARTY

Tough Guy Cinema: BAD BOYS II (2003, 35mm)

if youre excuse is ANYTHING ELSE...you are a fool. We ride
together, we die together. Bad boys for life.
Marx Bros: THE BIG STORE (1941, 35mm)
Groucho Marx plays two-bit detective Wolf J. Flywheel, hired
by department-store owner Martha Phelps (Margaret Dumont)

tude, Flywheel manages to do his job with the help of his mute
assistant, Wacky (Harpo ), and a music-teacher pal, Ravelli
(Chico).
