It's Transformers 2, at last! I'm told it's somehow even worse than the first one, yet also much louder.

Here is the map to the studio:

Snacks and pizza will be served, to help ease the pain of exposure to Shia Labeouf.

Note that this is a Friday night, rather than our usual Saturday. Hope to see you there!

Before Robert Reed played the dad on The Brady Bunch, he was Johnny Randall, a vacationing "teenager" notable for wearing the tightest shirt in cinema history. Reed and his fellow thirtysomething teens end up on an exotic jungle island inhabited by the most horrifying monster of all: a hammy guy in a vandyke and smoking jacket who thinks he's Vincent Price. Will Reed and his gang survive the horrors of Bloodlust? Will we? Fortunately, we've got Mike and the bots to help ease the pain.

Also featuring: Uncle Jim's Dairy Farm and the first appearance of Pearl Forrester!

It all happens Saturday, June 20th at 7:00pm!

Here's a map to the studio, and I look forward to seeing you there!

It's been many months since the last Meetup, but due to major construction at the loft, the delay was unavoidable. And when I say "major construction," I mean that we had no walls or doors.

Well, the place is still a mess, with cables dangling from the ceiling and giant slabs of metal littering the floor, but the projector and speakers are set up, and that's all we require!

To understand how a movie like "Hobgoblins" could possibly come to exist, it's necessary to take a little trip back to 1987, the year that "Gremlins" came out. Suddenly horror-comedies starring vicious little creatures were all the rage, and a rip-off called "Critters" soon followed. "Critters" didn't make nearly as much money as "Gremlins," but that didn't stop the producers of "Ghoulies," a cut-rate "Gremlins" rip-off featuring creatures coming out of a toilet. Not long after, "Gremlins" rip-off "Munchies" was filmed, on an even lower budget.

The parade of increasingly cheap "Gremlins" rip-offs continued for a while (don't get me started on "Kamillions" and "Beasties"), culminating in "Hobgoblins": one of the cheapest, most aggressively stupid films ever made. Even Mike and the 'bots have a hard time with this one, going so far as to set up a hotline for viewers traumatized by the film.

Needless to say, only MSTies prepared to endure deep hurting should attend this screening. You have been warned.

Yeah, I know the risks, scheduling a Meetup on a holiday weekend, but like Harry Connick Jr. says, sometimes you just gotta kick the tires and light the fires, big daddy! Man, that is so true.

For those of you too busy with your holiday festivities to attend, my best wishes. For the rest of us, there's "Rifftrax: Independence Day," in which Mike, Bill and Kevin tear the ridiculously stupid "aliens blow up the White House" movie a new one.

It all starts Sunday, July 6th at 7pm! Holiday-themed food and drinks will be served! Aliens will be punched in the face!

Here is the venerable subway map to guide you. Contact me at 646-294-5922 if you have any questions, and I hope to see you there!
