PORTLAND CITY HORROR HOLOCAUST!


HORRORHOUNDS! This Saturday night Portland's very own Hollywood Theatre is hosting a special ALL-NIGHT HORROR HOLOCAUST featuring 35mm prints of George Romero's bleak zombie epic DAY OF THE DEAD, quintessential summer bummer THE BURNING (come for the garden tool butchery, stay for Ric Wakeman's awesomely cocaine-damaged synth score), psychedelic Shaw Brothers mindfuck BOXER'S OMEN (every line of this beautiful film could be an Inquisition song title and there is more mysticism and magic in its 100 minutes than the entire Rites of Darkness festival) and, finally, the relatively uneventful chainsaw gutsfuck of PIECES (c'mon, the poster is WAY better than the actual film...and I've sat through it at least 5 times). There will be beer.
