"The season of horror is upon us. Spooky World opens this weekend, costume stores are popping up, and J. Cannibal and Garen Daly are presenting a seriously spooky line-up at the Somerville Theatre for TerrorThon ’10. Horror fans can catch New England premieres and contemporary classics like Human Centipede, sit in on a Q&A with director Frank Henenlotter, and watch a documentary on “Godfather of Gore” Herschell Gordon Lewis. But the highlight of this nine-day fest is “Spookadelica” a night of trailers, live performance from Black Cat Burlesque and Babes in Boinkland, and special guests this Saturday, September 25."
While SPOOKADELICA will indeed rock you out of your seats, I have trouble considering it THE highlight. Whether you're coming for the U.S. premier of GODFATHER OF GORE followed by a Q&A with dir. Frank Henenlotter, the festival finale with J. CANNIBAL'S FEAST OF FLESH X, or just any one of the many films we've got playing--I'm sure that night will be the highlight of your week.

"Time after time, season after season, Boston’s midnite movie host, undertaker and showman, J. Cannibal, raises the bar for himself. From September 24 – October 2, he and Garen Daly (Boston Sci Fi Film Festival producer) go 9 steps beyond the normally exquisite Feast of Flesh showings we’ve all come to love at the Coolidge, with a 9 day long horror festival: TerrorThon, at the Somerville Theater, 55 Davis Square... Honestly, if you are anywhere within a reasonable drive’s distance, check out some of these events. "
Thanks to Tony D and the whole crew at SCARS for your interest and support!

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!

In other news, H. Cannibal’s Feast of Flesh just got a nod from the editor’s at the Boston Phoenix for their “Best of Boston” issue. The category? Best Naked Zombies. Check it out:
Best Naked zombies
Feast of Flesh
Twice a year at the Coolidge Corner Theatre, skull-faced gentle giant J. Cannibal presents FEAST OF FLESH, an undead extravaganza featuring live music, a zombie contest, and zombie-themed "grotesque burlesque" (where else can you see green, rotting tits?), all culminating in a cult-classic zombie B-flick, handpicked by the Cannibal himself. He used to be an undertaker, so the man knows his corpses. Feast of Flesh is generally packed to the decaying gills with the freaks and geeks of the local underworld (i.e., Hot Topic enthusiasts) and die-hard fans of horror kitsch, so plan your visit to the Feast early.

J. Cannibal, producer and MC of the bi-annual "J. Cannibal's Feast of Flesh" zombie fest, brings you a program of horror shorts hand-picked from the BUFF meat locker. The real-life undertaker—crowned Boston's king of horror and oddities by local media—has put together an evening of cannibalistic cowboys, gun-totin' grannies, homicidal Christmas trees and nightmarish animations. With more than enough blood to wash it all down, there's something for every freak in attendance! Of the selections, J. Cannibal writes: "There are films here that made me laugh and clap, and a few that genuinely creeped me out. When you cut people open for a living it takes a lot to scare you, or make you laugh. Some of these images have stayed with me for weeks; I think horror fans will be very pleased." Admission to all Boston Underground Film Festival events is only $8.
The night's line-up is set to include:
Dead Bones / Olivier Beguin 2008
I, Zombie / Danny Curtin 2008
Guns and Butter / Nate Chapman 2008
Popsicle / Lucas Amann 2008
