The Lost Skeleton Returns Again

Dear friends of mine, it's (finally) here! The second "Lost Skeleton" installment premiered sunday Nov. 9 at the Egyptian.

The Lost Skeleton Returns Again

"Irresistible! Blamire & Co. retain a firm hold on retro psychotronic-cinema sensibilities, parodying the already campy with deadpan in-joke assurance, wonderfully daft non sequiturs, faux-naive performance moments and faithful stylistic tropes...pushed to surreal extremes!" -- VARIETY

BOTH LOST SKELETON MOVIES will screen, first one at five, then our new baby at 7:30. Cast/Crew - we'll all be there!

Sunday, November 9th - 5:00

THE LOST SKELETON OF CADAVRA. 2004, Sony Repertory, 89 min. Dir. Larry Blamire. If you missed it before or just need a refresher, here's the original cult favorite! A gleefully deadpan recreation of those ultra-cheap '50s sci-fi horror movies, as a host of stereotypes descend upon Bronson Canyon in search of a meteorite containing a mysterious radioactive element. A rare chance to see one of the most quotable movies of recent years on the big screen. Plus Ub Iwerks' 1937 cartoon classic, SKELETON FROLICS.
Writer/Director/Star Larry Blamire will introduce the screening.

Sunday, November 9th - 7:30 - Los Angeles Premiere!
THE LOST SKELETON RETURNS AGAIN. 2008, Bantam Street, 91 min. Dir. Larry Blamire. It's two years later, and the action shifts to the Amazon Jungle, as old friends and new enemies schlep into the dreaded Valley of the Monsters in search of yet another rare element. This bigger, better, bonier sequel moves up the budgetary scale from Ed Wood to Sam Katzman, containing some nifty special effects and a dynamic musical score--along with the expected hilarious performances and Blamire's trademark loopy dialogue. But you can still see the wires!
Discussion following with the cast and crew.

Tickets are available in advance at the Egyptian box office or through Fandango. The Egyptian is at 6712 Hollywood Blvd., 2 blocks east of Highland. http://www.americancinematheque.com

needlees to say, I broke up with her shortly afterward.

This warrants (I MEAN NEEDS) a DVD release.

I simply loved this movie! I haven't laughed so much in a long time. In fact, there hasn't a new movie come out in years that made me laugh. I didn't even notice i was randomly watching it in color. I rewinded as soon as i noticed and it turns out i had been watching like that for a few minutes already. Strange thing when that happens

This movie was genuinely entertaining. I've seen too many movies to call it anything like "Amazing" or "Fuckin crazy", however. The main character even had the same expression on her face for the entire movie. You can see it at filmsi.co.cc. Enjoy!
