Great to see such a packed Screen 1 @genesiscinema Great to see such a packed Screen 1 @genesiscinema for the 
@evolutionofhorror x Vincent Price Legacy UK 50th celebration of one of the queerest of British 70s horror shows, THEATRE OF BLOOD . Gender-fluid Diana Rigg gets my 💜 every time.

The lovely Becky & Mike also announced that @evolutionofhorror is hosting a Pride Month quiz and screening of one of our queer horror faves THE HUNGER @genesiscinema, so keep your eyes peeled for tickets 👀 Should be a hot hot night.
My new Bar Trash season MONSTER MAYHEM! launches n My new Bar Trash season MONSTER MAYHEM! launches next week with the grandaddy of all giant monster movies:

GODZILLA (ゴジラ | Gojira)
Wednesday 31 May 8:30pm @genesiscinema 🎟 £3 (link in bio!)

GODZILLA is a monumental piece of cinema that would leave its radioactive ☢️ footprints in "the longest running film series in world movie history" and "remains a pervasive and enduring symbol of Japan around the world". 

What's often forgotten is how incredibly good and how totally nightmarish this classic 1954 horror film is:

"The original was a sincere horror film, intended to frighten rather than amuse, which engaged honestly – indeed, even grimly – with contemporary Japanese unease over a mounting nuclear menace, untrammelled environmental degradation, and the long shadows of WWII." 

(all quotes from William Tsutsui's 'Godzilla on My Mind' - our brilliant book giveaway this season!)

I'll be introducing the film and looking at how the sound of its stomps will echo through the rest of the 14 title season @genesiscinema & @rule_zer0.

See you there...? 🍹🗑x

MONSTER MAYHEM! #dailybestiary 08/14: GODZILLA VS MONSTER MAYHEM! #dailybestiary 08/14:

GODZILLA VS. HEDORAH aka The Smog Monster (1971 — Japan) is the 11th spawning of Godzilla and possibly the most critically derided (to this point...). The big guy has transformed into a full-blown defender of the earth – rather than its avenging destroyer – and does battle with shape-shifting/flying sludge. 

The film itself – directed by Yoshimitsu Banno, with special effects by Teruyoshi Nakano – is a psychedelic trip complete with go-go dancers, fish-head hallucinations, split-screens, hand-drawn animation and even a song to save the earth. You'll either love it or hate it... you already know where I stand.

Join the MONSTER MAYHEM! with my new season of BAR TRASH @genesiscinema x @rule_zer0 [May to Aug 2023] 🎟 First shows on sale now / Booking link in bio.

MONSTER MAYHEM! is all about cinema’s biggest beasts and begins with the daddy of them all, Ishirō Honda’s 1954 B&W Japanese masterpiece, GODZILLA aka Gojira.
