Los Angeles. Mario Bava. No Brain Required.

[jetpack_monkey]

So. Mario Bava Retrospective at the Egyptian Theater in Hollywood. Who can resist? Not me. That's why I'm arriving in Los Angeles (Burbank) on Friday, March 21st at 5:05PM, in time for the Eli Roth-hosted double feature of Bay of Blood and Four Times That Night.

Then I'll continue to be in fabulous Los Angeles Saturday March 22nd, attending the Whip and the Body and Kill Baby Kill double feature that evening. These are two of my very favorite Bava films, all resplendent in suggestive horrors. Which is why I bought two spare tickets and may yet buy more for any Los Angelinos interested.

Sunday I'll be attending the TRIPLE feature The Girl Who Knew Too Much, Hatchet for the Honeymoon, and Caltiki the Immortal Monster (not available on domestic DVD), before leaving Monday morning (from Burbank again) at 9:40 AM.

As per usual, I look cutely at the LA area residents to provide me with their couches and camaraderie whilst I'm in their city. Comment or email (nate AT monkeyswithjetpacks DOT com).

Awwww! Look at the cute monkey! With a jetpack! ;-)

I'm *sure* we could find room for him over here at Apocalypse West.

Might I also interest you in Bava double feature Saturday night (or, indeed, Friday and/or Sunday night)?

That would be...like... horror... right? *looks shifty*

'Cuz, y'know, the way I do horror "Versus" has me set for about the next five years. :-/

It's all dark, moody, suggestion-based. No gore. Very little blood. Mostly spooky stuff.

Pleeeeeeeease?

Hmmmm... the 'scary' part of horror isn't the problem (hey I love Supernatural and Torchwood and Buffy, which are all horror in their own way)...it's really the splatterfests that leave me cold.

So... why not? :)
