On Mondays and Wednesdays starting today (July 22) through August 5, Austin Public Library's Carver Branch invites you to watch some wonderfully terrible movies. The library is calling it the Return of the Revenge of the Son of the Bad Film Festival. These screenings are free and open to the public, showing in the Carver library's meeting rooms [map] at 6:30 pm. Do you dare to partake?
Here's the lineup:
- Monday, July 22, Attack of the Crab Monsters (1957) -- Directed by Roger Corman, this film has folks stuck on an island under the control of giant crabs who happen to eat brains.
- Wednesday, July 24, The Thing with Two Heads (1972) -- Ray Milland plays a bigot who has to share a body with convict Rosie Grier. Here's the trailer:
- Monday, July 29, The Stuff (1985) -- No matter how delicious it is, you probably shouldn't eat the "stuff."
- Wednesday, July 31, The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed Up Zombies!!? (1964) -- Gypsies and zombies, this movie has it all.
- Monday, August 5, Roller Boogie (1979) -- It's "love on wheels" (according to the trailer), starring Linda Blair!
