Thirteen films and more than 30 trailers, music videos and shorts will play over five days at the first ever Polly Staffle Grindhouse Fest, which takes place May 12-16 at the Sci-Fi Center (2520 State Street) in Las Vegas.

Festival creator and director Chad Clinton Freeman, who has been called the “new champion of unabashed B-movie sleaze” by ArrowintheHead.com, announced the PollyGrind’s lineup live via a special Podcast from Hell with HorrorNews.net’s Dai Green last week.

Five features will get world premieres, seven will have their Las Vegas premieres, and one will be a U.S. premiere. Filmmaker Creep Creepersin will world premiere his films Vaginal Holocaust, Caged Lesbos A-Go-Go, and Orgy of Blood on May 15 in a special Saturday night “triple featuresin.”

The rape-revenge film Vaginal Holocaust and the women-in-prison feature Caged Lesbos A-Go-Go both have all-star indie casts. Sean Cain (Silent Night, Zombie Night), Elissa Dowling (Live Evil), Elske McCain (Killer Biker Chicks) and Shane Ryan (Amateur Porn Star Killer) star with Natasha Talonz (Black Devil Doll) in Holocaust. Caged Lesbos features most of the same players, minus Talonz, plus Monique Dupree (Bachelor Party in the Bungalow of the Damned), Elina Madison (Someone’s Knocking at the Door) and Ariauna Albright (Bloodletting). The erotic vampire tale Orgy of Blood features Albright, Dowling and Madison, along with Domiziano Arcangeli (Werewolf in a Women’s Prison) and Jeff Dylan Graham (Dorm of the Dead).

John R. Hand’s sci-fi arthouse film Scars of Youth kicks off the festival with its world premiere. Scars of Youth, the follow up to Hand’s cult hit Frankensteins Bloody Nightmare, will screen with the Las Vegas premiere of Greg Lamberson’s Slime City Massacre, the sequel to the 1988 cult classic Slime City, for a “Post-Apocalyptic Nightmares” double bill on May 12.

Hand said he was quite excited about being paired with Lamberson’s new film. “A few hours ago you told me about this and I was like wow,” Hand said on the podcast. “I didn’t even know they made a sequel. Slime City is such a classic film.”

Slime City Massacre is a hybrid of science fiction, horror and action. It stars Debbie Rochon (The Good Sisters), Lee Perkins (KatieBird *Certifiable Crazy Person) and Brooke Lewis (Mondo Holocausto!). It also features original Slim City actors Robert Sabin and Mary Bogle, and Roy Frumkes of Street Trash fame.

“It’s ten times the film the first one was,” Lamberson said of his sequel during the podcast. “It was definitely conceived as a throwback to the 80s films. And you’ll hear a lot of filmmakers talking about doing that, but I’m somebody that made the 80s films, so the sleaze is natural in my blood. It’s not something I’m aspiring to.”

The Dead Undead world premieres May 13 to jump start a living dead triple feature dubbed “Zombies-A-Go-Go!” Stuntmen Matt Anderson and Edward Conna, who both have more than 100 stunt credits, co-directed The Dead Undead, which stars Luke Goss (Hellboy II: The Golden Army), Vernon Wells (Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior), and Spice Williams (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine). Soldier vampires take on zombie vampires in the action-horror joy ride.

“I’m nervous and anxious to see what people think of it,” Anderson said of his film on the podcast. “We haven’t screened it anywhere. There have been few people that have seen it.”

The U.S. premiere of German Magariños’ zombie film Zombie Apocalypse Now: A Zombie Hunter will also play May 13. The Argentina import from the creator of Sadomaster caps the night, which also will feature the Las Vegas premiere of Henry Weintraub’s Melvin. Zombie Apocalypse Now can be classified as a comedic torture porn about an outcast zombie hunter, while Weintraub says Melvin is a Revenge of the Nerds zombie film.

Other features at the festival will include the Las Vegas premieres of the cool action film Dead Hooker in a Trunk (the directorial debut of the Twisted Twins Jen and Sylvia Soska), the 70s and 80s horror throwback Frat House Massacre (Alex Pucci), and the anthology Terror Overload (Brant Johnson, Kevin Myhre and Jason Stephenson). Terror Overload, which stars Rachel Grubb (Why Am I In A Box?) and Scarlet Salem (Incest Death Squad), caps the May 14 “Menage a Trois de la Terreur” with a midnight screening.

The Soskas describe their film as Weekend at Bernie’s by way of Quentin Tarantino and admit it started off as a fake trailer. The sisters were inspired by Nova Scotia filmmakers Jason Eisener, John Davies and Rob Cotterill, and their Hobo with a Shotgun trailer, which won Robert Rodriguez’s South by Southwest Grindhouse trailer contest.

Screenplay writer Draven Gonzalez said Frat House Massacre is his and Pucci’s answer to the 80s film Sorority House Massacre. Gonzalez likens it to Wes Craven’s Last House on the Left and calls it a twisted, brutal revenge story that is filled with blood, gore, sex, drugs, rock and roll, and some disco.

Grubb, who plays four roles as a homage to Karen Black in Trilogy of Terror, called Terror Overload a good midnight movie. “I think it’s a really good festival for that film. A lot of horror festivals were unable to show it because it was pretty graphic, and has a lot of nudity,” Grubb said on the podcast. “It’s definitely grindhouse and I think it’s going to fit in well. ”

The Las Vegas premieres of Horrid (James Pronath) and Red Velvet (Bruce Dickson) close the fest on May 16 with a “Killer Party” double feature. Three friends travel to the woods for a bachelor party weekend filled with beer, booze, babes and the spread of a cannibalistic disease in Horrid, while a madman slices up a birthday party in Red Velvet.

Henry Thomas (E.T.), Kelli Garner (Bully), Cristen Coopen (Cameron Romero’s Staunton Hill), and Eric Junmann (Robert Englund’s Killer Pad) highlight Dickson’s film, which is best described as part romantic arthouse dark comedy and part deconstructive slasher.

“It was born out of mine and my partner’s feelings that we were seeing more and more horror films, but enjoying them less,” Red Velvet producer Sean Fernald explained on the podcast. “What we set out to do was make a horror film with a sense of humor.”

Red Velvet also features one of the last cameos of Forrest J. Ackerman, who passed away in 2008. Ackerman, often referred to as Uncle Forry, coined the term “sci-fi” and appeared in more than 100 films. He also cameos in The Dead Undead.

Ackerman is second only to Lloyd Kaufman as the personality that pops up the most in films screening at the PollyGrind. Kaufman appears in Slime City Massacre, Caged Lesbos A-Go-Go, Zombie Apocalypse Now: A Zombie Hunter, Melvin and Weintraub’s short Depraved.

Also playing the PollyGrind will be the U.S. premiere of John (Arrow In The Head) Fallon’s short The Red Hours and the world premiere of the “midnight movie version” of Las Vegas filmmaker Michael Dunn’s short The Bet.

Other shorts at the event will include the Las Vegas premieres of Christian Schleisiek’s Babylon 2084, Jeffrey Anderson Bliss’ Telefone, Lucas Figueroa’s Because There Are Things You Never Forget, Pete Jacelone’s Hypochondriac, Michael Ramova’s Slice, William Mager’s Stiletto, Colin Clarke’s Frankenstien vs. Wolfman in 3D, Deborah Haywood’s Sis, and Jason Shipley’s Blood Shed.

Two special showcases will show off shorts from Calvin Lee Reeder and Aaron Mento. Reeder’s off-beat festival hit The Rambler and its sequel The Snake Mountain Colada will screen May 13. Mento’s horror shorts Heathen’s Gate and Absent will screen May 16.

Music videos playing the event will include the world premieres of Elona’s Warrior (featuring a song by Elona), Dunn’s Hallway (Justine Bellinsky), and Alvaro de la Hoz’s Long Goodbye (Lazy). Two Las Vegas made music videos that will be world premiering are Bumfights creator Ryen McPherson’s Jitterbug (Walker Rose) and Ginnetta Correli’s Hippodome Mime. David Wanger’s Anatinus (LIGO), Weintraub’s Scent of Your Blood (Monday with a Bullet), and Rob Prior and Paul Jenkins’ Get Your Dead On (Scum of the Earth) will also screen.

Trailers screening will include Jeffrey Blake Palmer’s The Sleeping Deep, Jamie Heinrich’s Nancy Scanner, Pete Schuermann’s Evil Brain from Planet X, Ramova’s Star Wars Grindhouse, as well as world premieres of Ramova’s Soldier Killer, The Texas Chainsaw Champion and I Piss on Your Grave.

Tickets for the event are $10 per day. Five day passes and three day passes can be purchased in advance for $40 and $25.

Freeman explained on the podcast that this event is being put on with no budget and hopes sponsors, advertisers, donors, etc. will step forward to make PollyGrind the best it can be. All sponsorships and donations will go to Sci-Fi Center maintenance, as well as awards and prizes for winning films, and giveaways for attendees. Freeman said his dream is to also have burlesque, go-go, belly dancers and variety acts perform at the event.

“This is the start of the PollyGrind,” Freeman said. “To make the first year as good as it can be, I’d like to have some other people on board with us. So if there are people that love independent, genre and grindhouse films that want to get involved, I’d love to hear from them.”

PollyGrind.com and the Sci-Fi Center are hosting a grindhouse double feature April 10 in Las Vegas to celebrate the DVD release of Mike Davis’ directorial debut “Sex Galaxy.”

Davis wrote, produced and directed “Sex Galaxy,” a sci-fi-sex-comedy set 100 years in the future when sex has been outlawed. The project was made out of public domain footage from films such as “Voyage to the Planet of Prehistoric Women,” which starred Mamie Van Doren. This is a must see for fans of “Mystery Science Theater 3000.”

“Sex Galaxy” will jump start the night with its Las Vegas premiere at 7:30 p.m. A question and answer session will follow and then “Pervert!” will screen for the first time in Sin City.

Davis wrote and co-produced “Pervert!,” which can be described as an outrageous horror-sex-comedy. The film stars porn starlet and former California governor candidate Mary Carey. “Pervert!” was heavily inspired by the works of Russ Meyer, Herschell Gordon Lewis and Roger Corman. It was even shot at the same ranch used in “Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!”

Cost is $7 at the door.

What up thugs?

Mark-O-WitZ that thug ya luv here.

I just saw the coolest, most baddest movie ever! It is called “Clash of the Titans” and it’s a true story from the bible or something like that.

I know, I know, the Amazing Thug Armadillo gone gospel? Holmes, I been gospel since the day I step foot in a church and was zapped with the holy ghost. Not to mention it is the lord that I must thank for my handsome looks.

Anyway, to get back to the point of this post, the last bible movie I saw was pretty tight. It was that movie “300″ where the thugs “dine in hell” and instead of screaming “west side” scream “Sparta!” That flick I digged. But that bondage bible movie, “Passion of the Christ” with homeboy getting spanked, I didn’t like one bit.

I also usually hate all things “titan” because I’m from Houston and when Tennessee stole the Oilers they named them the Titans and Denzel Washington’s least thuggish film is “Remember the Titans.” But I love things that are triple-X and I also love things that are triple-D. “Clash of the Titans” wasn’t XXX and it didn’t have any DDD hotties in it; it was PG-13, but it was 3D.

“TWELVE DOLLARS!?!” I screamed at the old lady selling me a ticket to the film. “FOR A MATINEE?” I protested. And since I am too old for baby infant rate, I forked out my $12. Well, sort of. I actually got in free thanks to my baby brother Prince. He went through this phase where he was eating a lot of Lucky Charms for breakfast and they had some special code in the boxes. Collect four codes and you get a free movie ticket worth twelve smackaroos. So on the fence, I reluctantly used my free movie pass, ran to my seat and slipped on my nerdy 3D glasses.’

Then…

BOOYAH!

My ass was blown away.

If I had money to pay for some popcorn I would have tossed it in the air to celebrate. But I had none, but homie sitting next to me did and he threw some in the air and I caught it in my mouth cause I was hungry. So I went straight home and made a sandwich.

So, go see it and love it. And if you ever come around messing with me and my baby brother, I’m going to yell “THIS IS ARGOS!” and then release the Kraken on your bitch ass!

Peace be with you,
Markowitz Garvey

What up thugs?

Mark-O-WitZ that thug ya luv here.

This past weekend I got to attend the Las Vegas premiere of Rachel Grubb’s directorial debut “Why Am I In A Box?,” so listen up playas and playa haters cuz this is my review of the film, which will be coming yo way any day now via Brain Damage Films.

Miss Grubb is a cutie. She was there at the Sci-Fi Center in Las Vegas live and in the flesh. She is best known for screaming and getting naked in horror movies.  But in this film, she keeps her clothes on and gets cuffed, stuffed and locked up by another shorty (Brooke Lemke) that wants her to write a book. Me personally, I don’t read books. But some people do, so I guess shorty is one of them book readers out there.

Long story short, Miss Grubb eats some Ramien and it makes her good on the typewriter, whatever the hell that thing was. All I know is it looks like a computer keyboard minus the computer. Must be something new from Apple. Bet blogging on that is a bitch.

Miss Grubb then goes to eat at a restaurant.  Guess what? Yup. Shorty is her waitress. Sho nuff. And the waitress on the film, who got kidnapped by the shorty in the film was sitting right in front of me, next to Miss Grubb. Her name was Lisa Pechmiller and I don’t want to go into details, but let’s just say she likes my armadillo style.

To get back to my review, so you cats out there don’t do too much gossipity gopping, let me say this “Why Am I In A Box?” was good despite the fact it had no naked womens and was low key on the violence tip. What it was though was a cool and funny movie made by a cutie. It made me smile and it made me inspired to write this review. So when you get the chance, see it.

By the way, Miss Grubb’s film making company, that she started with Brooke Lemke, is called Silent-But-Deadly Productions.  During the Q&A after “Why Am I In A Box,” Miss Grubb said the name of the company was because Brooke ate a bunch of beans the day they formed the company, true dat.

Anyway, keep up with the film and their future films at Silent-But-Deadly Productions.

Much love,

Mark

What up thugs?

Mark-O-WitZ that thug ya luv here.

This past weekend I got to kick it with one of my old school hustla home fries, who is now a bad ass new jack Hollywood filmmaker. His name is Sean Cain (used to be Don SeanCo in da hood) and he came to town for the Las Vegas premiere of his tight Christmas movie “Silent Night, Zombie Night.” He brought some other Hollywood types with him, including the movie’s producer Wes “Side” Laurie, actor Luke Y. Thompson and actor Jack Forcinito. (Heather Wixson from DreadCentral.com was up in the house too, yo!)

I ain’t going to spill no beans on any of the extracurricular, paranormal or paranoial activities that took place over the weekend, but know this: once a thug means always a thug. And this post is about “Silent Night, Zombie Night” anyway.

So here is a little review for you people out there in hopes that you support my boy’s movie and make him rich and famous like that old guy with the big glasses that makes a lot of zombie movies.

Now, first of all, this is not a Christian film. I know. I know. I thought it would be going in, but nah, it ain’t about no baby Jesus and his death and resurrection. This movie is more reality based than that noise.

Peep this, two cops get stuck in a house with a shorty. She’s fine, yo. Zombies all around.

Cop #1 is a meanie Grinch mofo (Jack Forcinito)  and Cop#2 is his sneaky snake partner (Andy Hopper). They both wanna sex shorty (Nadine Stenovitch) up all day and night.

Now instead of giving away too much, the following is a play-by-play in Twitter style:

Arrrrrrrr! #Zombies @VHFilms

Cops head to the crib #ReservoirDogs style.

Mad thug zombiez attack. #OMG @LYTRules @DerekHouck @PollyStaffle

BANG! BANG! #Gunshots

Awww. There’s Santa. #Christmas

Yo, gimmie some presents @SantaClaus

Santa looks sick. Is he a… @Questions

BANG! #Gunshot

Oh well, Christmas is canceled I guess. RIP @SantaClaus

Fast ones are dumb. #zombies

Slow ones are dumber. #zombies

BA BOOM! #BaseballBat2DaHead

Pretty X-Mas lights #Christmas

Here comes dude from #The DevilsRejects, directed by @RWZombie

It’s my homie #LewTemple. Adam Banjo is all hold up in an attic. What’s up Lew?

More zombies. #horror

Bang! #Bullet2DaHead.

Here comes Felissa Rose from #SleepAwayCamp. Hey Cutie!

And there’s Vernon Wells from #MadMax2 #TheRoadWarrior

LOL #FunnyAssStuff

Drama for yo mamma. #BizarreLoveTriangle #DontYouJustHateThat

No! Don’t do it! Damn it Lew! You gonna make me cry. #BooHoo #LewTemple

Frying pan #WackyPotentialMurderWeapons … cause I could just kill a man! Scratch that #zombie

Awww. That is just sad, but also makes my heart swell.  #KillMeSoIDontEatYou

Credits, yo. #TheEnd

Now as you can see from my review, this ain’t yo typical zombie movie and it ain’t yo typical Christmas movie. It’s a love story that takes place around Christmas and features zombies, ya feel me? And yes, there are both fast (Zack Snyder’s “Dawn of the Dead”) and slow zombies (That old guy with the big glasses’ “Dawn of the Dead”).

Also, it’s called “Silent Night, Zombie Night,” but ain’t nothing silent about it. It’s more like “Loud Blood Curdling Scream Night, Zombie Night.”

And be warned: this movie is not for infants. Santa don’t eat no brains or anything, but he ain’t eating cookies either. He’s a big and mean Tor Johnson looking thug (Chris Gabriel) and he gets rockabye babyed in broad day light.

So, in summarizing; “Silent Night, Zombie Night” gets two claws up. It’s fun, it’s funny, it’s bloody and it’s different. So, check it out, yo! It has already played in London, New Mexico and now Las Vegas. Next up is its Los Angeles premiere.

Keep up with the film at SNZNfilm.com or on Facebook.

Merry Christmas and to all a good night,

Markowitz

P.S. Below is a pic of me with “Don SeanCo” Cain. Check this gallery on Facebook for more photos of me at the event.

What up thugs and thugettes?

It’s that male grey you love to hate and hate to love, dropping mad science on yo head, hitting harder than an SUV crashing into a tree with more finesse than a golf club upside the head. Ya heard?

I admit that it has been about a minute since you last heard me spit. I can explain. You see, I used to blog from the Best Buy by my old house when a McDonald’s dumpster was my place of residence. But Best Buy got hip to my computer use and gave me the boot.

Then I moved close to a library. I thought I’d be able to log on everyday and Spacebook, Tweezle, as well as do some blogdiddyblogdotcomacoing.

Wrong my friend.

They said I owed fines. Something about a few overdue and unreturned CDs and DVDs.

But feel me, I know I didn’t check out no damn “Horhey Potters and the Giant Sausage” or no “Twilights of the Glittery Fangless” or “Handscock with Big Willie.” I admit I never returned that 2Pac “Greatest Hits” CD. They gots me there, but those DVDs. Nah. This Armadillo don’t play dat.

But guess what? I found out my baby brother Prince had borrowed my library card. (I would like to submit Exhibit A: “Photo of Prince with my library card” into evidence, your honor.)

And guess what else? Sitting under his bed were those 3 damn movies. So after he went to bed one night I tried to snatch em from his infant ass.

Prince woke up.

He wouldn’t let me have the DVDs. He called me a thief.

He rented 3 DVDs on my library card, never returned them and now he is calling me a thief?

Long story short, I sat him straight and explained that my library card was not a credit card and he had not purchased the films, but instead had borrowed them and that he must return them because he is breaking the law.

“But I want to watch them,” Prince squealed.

I shouted back: “Then download them for free online like everybody else!”

“Nope!” was his response.

I know what you are thinking: Prince has a computer?

Yes he does. Or shall I say did. I traded him the 3 movies for his Leapfrog Clickstart and that’s how I am coming at ya today. Boo yah!!!

Now, on to the point of this post…

You see that photo! And the one below!

It’s sickening ain’t it.

Do you see what I see?

What do you see?

I’ll tell ya what I see - Santa Clause has shot and killed Casper and thrown him in the trash.

That’s right, ya’ll, we are just one month removed from Halloween and into the trash the decorations go.

While doing some trash digging in my hood, I snapped that photo.

I guess before New Year’s Day the Baby Thug Jesus will get tossed into the garbage as well.

Out with the old and in with the new, huh?

That makes me so sick, yo.

Anyway, I was going to post some more about how pissed I am, but I gotta go throw up now.

Out,
Marko
