Weird Wednesday presents THE LOST EMPIRE
Ridiculous fun about a trio of huge-breasted tough chicks who team up to take down an evil shape shifting death vampire who runs a ladies-only martial arts tournament on his impregnable island fortress (one of many that cluttered the seas in the '70s and '80s). The bad guy, played by Angus Scrimm of the PHANTASM movies, is trying to attain two glowing mystical eyes that will give him power over life and death in the name of Satan. It's a pretty pressure packed situation for the heroines, a hardbodied police-woman, a wise-cracking busty blonde thief and a voluptuous Indian shamaness played by Russ Meyer favorite Raven De La Croix. Writer/director Jim Wynorski packs a LOT of fun into this one including a robotic spider, a laser gun shaped like a huge penis, a man ripping his own face off and a WOMAN KICKING A GORILLA IN THE NUTS. Really.

Terror Thursday presents CHOPPING MALL
Writer/director Jim Wynorski followed up his blazing directorial debut (see THE LOST EMPIRE at Weird Wednesday) with this lean, mean and 100% chopping-free robotic assault on teenage lust! A shopping mall becomes both a breeding ground and a slaughterhouse when a gaggle of hornbag high-schoolers do some after-hours mattress shop spelunking and become targets of a highly advanced (and slighty malfunctioning) squadron of anti-burglary battledroids. The body count escalates as clothing is shed and human heads explode under major lazerfire! Watch for TERRORVISION's Mary Woronov and Gerrit Graham as well as a cameo from DEATH RACE 2000 director Paul Bartel. Featuring only the finest neon sleazery and a shocking disregard for the safety of its protagonists, CHOPING MALL is an iron-fisted lesson in '80s fashion, technology and bare-knuckle youthicide.
