Filmmaking Movie Night




These are movies about making movies. Which is like writing a book about writing



or a song about about singing



All of which are legitimate forms of expression, I don't know why I brought it up.

This Oscars-inspired BMN is just bursting with star wattage. Hollywood Boulevard alone has three people that we're keeping tabs on:

Mary Woronov


Dick Miller


and Paul Bartel


That means Dick and Paul are now tied with Linnea Quigley for second place behind Cameron Mitchell, who has 9. I don't think they'll catch up, judging by how many Cameron Mitchell movies are still out there to watch. Although we've been in a little Mitchell drought lately. It's been over a year!

It also stars the guy who directed White Line Fever, the guy who directed Caged Heat and Robby the Robot.


Everyone who was ever successful.

You'll recognize a lot of people in Baadasssss! but mostly you'll care about Adam West and Sally Struthers. Hey, notice how I've been spelling baadasssss the same way for two years? It's because of this movie and the movie it's chronicling, Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song.

 Here's what happened last week:
