THE WRIGHT STUFF @ The New Beverly – Dec 2nd - 17th

Just when you thought you couldn't get any more excited about Edgar Wright's festival at the New Beverly, we've come to blow your mind. The line up of Edgar's special guests are so incredibly awesome, you are going to thank us profusely for the best Christmas present you have ever received.

The following performances will feature introductions from Edgar and Q&A's with these special guests.

Dec 2nd 7.30pm – Bugsy Malone & Phantom of the Paradise

On the night of Dec 2nd , Edgar will start off the whole shebang with a very, very special guest. Not only the super talented composer of Bugsy Malone, but the star Phantom Of The Paradise, Mr. Paul Williams.

Yes, that's right, one of America's greatest songwriters will be in the house and talking to Edgar.

Also! December 2nd, at midnight is the Dangerous Business Secret Show, all are invited, and it's something you certainly won't want to miss!

Dec 5 – Flash Gordon & Danger Diabolik – 7.30pm

In attendance with Edgar will be everyone's favorite Flash nemesis, Prince Barin himself, Timothy Dalton.

Then Joe Dante will be helping Edgar introduce Mario Bava's cult classic Danger: Diabolik!

december 7 - The Last Boy Scout and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang – 7.30pm

In attendance with Edgar, the writer of Last Boy Scout and the writer / director of Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, as well as countless other crime classics, Shane Black, will be in attendance!

Dec 10 – American Werewolf in London and Tremors – 7.30pm

You can't get much more brilliant than John Landis, and we've got him! The director of American Werewolf will be in here in person and in conversation with Edgar

December 12 - Top Secret and Bananas – 7.30pm

In attendance with Edgar tonight, a very special guest. When it comes to comedy, the name Zucker ranks high on the list. It doesn't get much funnier than Top Secret, and it doesn't get much more exciting than a Q&A with David Zucker himself!

Dec 14– Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls (TBC) & Head – 7.30pm

With Edgar. Introducing 'Head'. Mickey Dolenz.

Need we say more?

Dec 16-17 – Raising Arizona & Evil Dead 2

OMG - Head! I saw that in the theater paired with Yellow Submarine - I think my sister was made to take me, and I think I was the only one who wasn't stoned

Of course, the double I want to see most is playing on LotXmas.

Boss Radio 11-27-2007 02:23 AM

I will be joining Jesse on December 2nd for Phantom of the Paradise/Bugsy Malone/Paul Williams Q&A.

Prudence 11-27-2007 01:41 PM

Awww... I love top Secret.

Kevy Baby 11-27-2007 03:07 PM

At first my brain interpreted the thread title as Edgar Winter to program at the New Beverly.

Mousepod into Frankenstein and Free Ride?!?


Ghoulish Delight 11-27-2007 03:16 PM

Oh boy, Raising Arizona and Evil Dead 2 is veeeeery tempting.

Eliza Hodgkins 1812 11-27-2007 05:20 PM

I'm tempted by that night, and the Tremors night. I love me some Tremors. Heh.

mousepod 12-02-2007 12:42 PM

Tonight's the first night! Who else is in?

Here's the Phantom trailer - if you need convincing.

innerSpaceman 12-02-2007 01:10 PM

Phantom of the Paradise never did anything for me, despite all my friends being into it back in the day.


But looking over the schedule again, I see the prime df of Raising AZ and ED2 is also playing the night after LoTmas (albeit w/o live intro).


OMG, though - the New Beverly was a reeking pit of scummy goo in the actual days of L.A. Revival House Paradise (i.e., that's BEFORE any mass penetration of Home Video VCRs, mind you - - youngin's) ... I can hardly imagine what a sorry state it must be in by now.
