Think Rocky Horror Picture Show with less androgyny and more anthropophagy.”

Black Ocean Presents
J. CANNIBAL’S FEAST OF FLESH X
featuring the alien zombie splatter classic NIGHT OF THE CREEPS
plus special guests BLACK CAT BURLESQUE
with live music by PLANETOID
Saturday, October 2nd / 10pm / $10 Adv. $12 Door

Real-life undertaker and long time zombie fanatic J. Cannibal—dubbed the King of Horror Burlesque—presents a gruesome banquet of midnight mayhem!

This frightful night of fun kicks off with Planetoid, whose mission is to enslave the human race with their transmissions of face-melting rock! Marooned on this accursed planet known as Earth, they have taken on the guise of the most highly respected and influential force this world has ever known: That of a rock & roll band! Following their set will be a bevy of grotesque burlesque courtesy of the infamous horror troupe, Black Cat Burlesque. Dedicated to putting the BUMP back into the night, Black Cat Burlesque has been raising pulses, the dead and a whole lot of hell since 2003. As the bad seeds of Boston Burlesque, this scream team mines the depths of their twisted psyches—blending striptease thrills and spookshow chills to push the boundaries of the art form and explore the dark, cobwebbed corners of neo-cabaret.

For the night’s feature, Mr. Cannibal has hand-picked the alien-zombie-splatter-camp-classic, NIGHT OF THE CREEPS. Featuring intergalactic slugs, an 80s teen prom, plenty of blood and more quotable one-liners than you can shake a rotting finger at—this film was destined to be a cult hit. You definitely want to catch this one on the big screen!

Free gory goodie bags will be handed out to all, and J. Cannibal will award a number of prizes for the best zombie costumes.

Brought to you by the creative minds of Black Ocean, this will be a show of insanity from beyond the grave that you don’t want to miss! With hundreds of fiends showing up to each Feast of Flesh over the past ten years, come see what the excitement is about for yourself!

Have to ask about the move. Why the Somerville now? I noticed the Coolidge's horror lineup this year looked pretty weak and, when I saw Feast of Flesh had moved, it didn't surprise me. Does the new Coolidge management suck as much as they seem to?

The Somerville really wanted to work with us, and offered us an amazing deal on the space for nine days. We would not be able to pull off the TerrorThon at the Coolidge. I think the Coolidge just has a different aesthetic vision. However there are still some cool horror-loving managers working there, and in general the staff have always been great. We may still do more events with them in the future!
