Just added! Vixen star Erica Gavin will join us IN PERSON, schedule permitting, to introduce the show.

Amid the cultural chaos of 1968 and armed with a budget of only $70,000, producer / director / cinematographer Russ Meyer transcended sexploitation by crafting this “bosomacious melodrama” (Time Magazine) about racism, communism, bush pilots, draft dodgers and a ferociously free-spirited wife named Vixen (the incredible Erica Gavin of Beyond the Valley of the Dolls and Caged Heat.) Despite attempts at censorship that included prosecutions for obscenity and one of the first-ever X ratings, Vixen became one of the year’s top-grossing movies, forever transformed independent film and remains the creative template for Meyer’s unapologetic vision of American cinema.

Up!

No fairy tale…this! In 1976 producer / director/ cinematographer / editor Russ Meyer delivered his penultimate feature, one that went as far out as even Russ could think to go. Welcome to a sex-blasted NorCal burg where kinky Führers, ravenous piranha, sapphic ecstasy, murder mystery, Shakespearean appropriation and the remarkable Raven De La Croix collide, with Kitten Natividad (in her debut with Russ) as The Greek Chorus of it all. Co-written by movie critic icon Roger Ebert (who also lent his pen to Beyond the Valley of the Dolls), this uniquely perverse comedic detonation is Meyer at his most outrageous, and is definitely *not* to be confused with the Pixar cartoon.
