VIVA THE NAM - Wed 7pm at Alamo Ritz
Get those tickets HERE!
The Alamo is proud (and shocked) to present the first feature-length no-rules stop-motion action comedy to star only action figures: Paul Hanley and Kieran Healy's VIVA THE 'NAM (world premiering at this screening). A "mega-semi-sequel" to their earlier fest winner WAR: AMERICAN STYLE, VIVA depicts the bizarre adventures of Pvt. Joe Holmes, a marine stationed in Vietnam's "I Corps" from 1968-1969. The last of a family line that has lost a man in every single American conflict, Holmes will have to overcome communist armies, Russian Roulette rounds, USO riots, bloodthirsty drill instructors, leeches, drunk drivers, an M16-wielding Charlton Heston, and poop-smoking Frenchmen to make it out of Vietnam alive!
Don't take our word for it...read the incredible coverage from Marc Savlov at the Chronicle!
Made over the course of eight years (!!), VIVA THE NAM is a sprawling epic the likes of which GI Joe stop-motion animation has never seen before. Don't miss this opportunity to witness cinematic history while busting a few guts. Tickets are HERE!
