This week boys and girls it's siege night.
Mon. Apr. 3rd
7pm RIO BRAVO (1959): The siege classic and archetype of pretty much all that follow. John Wayne, a small time sheriff, needs some help keeping a murderer under custody while the murderer's powerful rancher brother has sent many hired guns to get him out. Wayne enlists the help of a drunken Dean Martin, young gun fighting Ricky Nelson and crippled Walter Brennan to help him hold out until the Marshal arrives.
"When I'm getting serious about a girl, I show her Rio Bravo and she better fucking like it."
-Quentin Tarantino
9pm GHOST OF MARS (2001): A police unit is sent to a Martian outpost to transport bad ass criminal mo-fo Ice Cube back to justice. At a nearby archaeological dig an ancient relic has been uncovered unleashing the vengeful spirits of the planet's ancient warrior inhabitants, who now possess the bodies of humans with the intent to destroy more humans. Considered shit on its release this movie seems to be gaining a small cult following. Hopefully we'll see what they're talking about however it seriously could be this small cult has never seen Rio Bravo or Assault on Precinct 13 which means they have no clue.
Coming soon: Eddie Murphy stand-up double bill (postponing it for you Brendan) and Prisons Suck double feature with some Edward James Olmos goodness.
