Advert: Curse of the Devil to Mother, Jugs & Speed 07.03.08

From Curse of the Devil (1973) to Mother, Jugs & Speed (1976)... they sure knew how to stack a line-up back in the 70s.

Advert: The Valley 07.03.08

The Valley (1972) - A STRIKINGLY POWERFUL QUEST FILM

Advert: The Pig Keeper's Daughter 07.03.08

The Pig Keeper's Daughter (1972)

There once was a pig keeper's daughter
Who raised what she shouldn't oughter
So all the boys came
As they played her game
And took her three pigs when they caughter


I love dirty limericks, but I have no idea what that last line was supposed to mean. Does she have three boobs?

Advert: Emma Mae 07.02.08

If you're in Austin tonight, don't miss the free Weird Wednesday screening of Emma Mae (1976) (AKA Black Sister's Revenge), one of my all-time favorite blaxploitation (and for that matter, Weird Wednesday) flicks. Even Pam Grier has nothing on the sheer badassery of Jerri Hayes as Emma Mae. And come early to see Penitentiary III (1987). Director Jamaa Fanaka will be in attendance to talk about both films. Freaking Austin...

Advert: Jango 07.02.08

Jango (1966) - Did he love violence - or did he violently love

Hot damn... that's a great tagline. Did they actually use that for this film? And where'd the "D" go?

Advert: Suit Case 07.01.08

Suit Case (19??) - Unable to be shown in any but the MOST LIBERAL cities!

You know... LIBERAL cities like Des Moines. Plus a no-browsing fee bookstore! I just hope you don't want your mags in mint (or even dry) condition.

Advert: Neighborhood Dr., Young and Innocent, The For Sale Sign, & My Name is Kay 06.30.08

Neighborhood Dr. (19??), Young and Innocent (1974), The For Sale Sign (19??), My Name is Kay (19??)

Advert: Teenage Fantasies 06.30.08

Teenage Fantasies (19??) - This One Beats Them All... Even Throat

If it's good enough for Interview magazine, it's good enough for me.
Click here for more.
 
Advert: The Farmer 06.30.08

The Farmer (1977) - He Doesn't Get Mad. He Gets Even.

Plus some flick about a cab driver. Sounds kinda boring. Bring on more farm-related violence.

Advert: Badge 373 06.26.08

Badge 373 (1973) - A gun in his sock, a tire iron in his belt, and no badge. The story of Eddie, the best ex-cop in the business

I loves me a good morally-conflicted cop story.

Advert: Fantasy Girls 06.26.08

Fantasy Girls (1974) - Why would a man pay $500 for an hour with these girls?

I was going to write something witty about the tagline until I noticed the description for Sharon (She's the Water Sports girl. She should win a golden medal). Are you serious? A golden shower reference in a newspaper? That's insane. What the hell was going on in the 70s?

Advert: 80 Steps to Jonah 06.25.08

80 Steps to Jonah (1969) - Take the whole family to a happy movie for a change
