Join us as we unzip ourselves from 'Body Bags', a John Carpenter Presents film. This fun 90s anthology film has 3 segments and a wrap-around story starring John Carpenter himself.
The Gas Station - dir by John Carpenter.
Hair (starring Stacy Keach from Road Games) - dir by Carpenter.
Eye (starring Mark "Skywalker" Hamill) - dir by Tobe Hooper.
It was originally made as a pilot episode for a proposed anthology series but Showtime pulled the plug and it was released as a TV movie on video rental. We (Australia) even had it released here.
Full of cameos by directors and producers, it is fun for fans to spot their favourite. It was good to see Stacy Keach dipping his toe back into the horror waters.
The screening gets started at 7.30pm in the cinema at the rear of LongPlay but you'll be able to find us there from 6pm having a bite to eat/catch up beforehand. Please bring cash for memberships, which are available on the night at $15 for three screenings, or $50 for twelve.
Hope to see you there!
