Homebodies (1974)
Director: Larry Yust
Douglas Fowley, Ruth McDevitt, Frances Fuller, Ian Wolfe
Through an afghan darkly...a delightful little yarn about a really nice group of senior tenants. Sure, they seem content and quiet enough...but when their cozy apartment building is threatened by the construction of a new skyscraper this octogenarian crew just might muster up enough gumption and moxie to stick-it-to-the-man and stay put in their homes no matter what the cost!

J.C. (1972)
Director: William F. McGaha
Starring: William F. McGaha, Hannibal Penney, Joanna Cook Moore
"J.C." preached love... lived violence!!
Jesus Christ is born again on Earth. He grows up, flips off his Baptist Father's uptight modern Christian ideals and leads a biker gang on an LSD fueled pilgrimage out west. A classic 'What If' story framed by 60s counterculture and 70s biker exploitation. Yet another thought provoking mainstream 70s anti-establishment release later buried by said establishment. How far we have fallen....

Mysteries from Beyond Earth (1975)
Director: George Gale
Narrator: Lawrence Dobkin
Weird Phenomena Documentaries...while always an exciting prospect at the Hex, there is always a bit pf apprehension prior to first screenings. The flood of these films at the height of the genre's popularity in the mid-70s lead to what some would call a large, gaping fissure in quality control. This is why we are proud to bring you Mysteries from Beyond Earth. This one stands out from the chaff--the sheer number of topics it covers prevents it from ever dragging on a technical level...but it also approaches all the subjects at hand with an earnest seriousness and appreciation. TV character actor extraordinaire Lawrence Dobkin (who also took a stab at Pontius Pilate with In Search of Historic Jesus) hosts the piece with a gravitas that makes you feel like you are part of a 2am gentleman's debate of the topics in the study with 25 year old Scotch and Cuban cigars. Telepathy & Psychokinesis, Bigfoot to Black Masses, UFOs & Atlantis, Kirlian Photography, Cloning, Cryonics...and that's just the beginning of this awesome film. Are we indeed the new Atlantis?

Starcrash (1979)
Italy
Director: Luigi Cozzi
Starring: Marjoe Gortner, Caroline Munro, Christopher Plummer, David Hasselhoff
Before Luigi Cozzi made the best Italian Alien rip-off (Contamination), he made the best Italian Star Wars rip off ever...and this deliriously masterful rip off has definitely stood the test of time. 30ish some odd years later, on those particularly crazy nights when the disciples gather in the catacombs and the drinks flow free and the SciFi siren sings her sweet song...Starcrash wins every time. It seriously never gets old...a massive Sinbad vibe, a mercifully masked David Hasselhoff, SFX ranging from, well, all over the place...oh, and mind boggling sex goddess Caroline Munro makes this just about perfect. Munro plays Stella Star, who, with her smuggler partner and hick robot, fight...well, you know the drill - good guys, evil masked counts, laser swords, royalty rescue, giant 5 story robots...this has it all and then more and that IS a good thing!!! Drink, watch, and party 'cuz life is good! Cozzi also co-wrote Argento's Four Flies on Grey Velvet.

Firepower (1979)
Director: Michael Winner
Starring: Sophia Loren, James Coburn, O.J. Simpson, Eli Wallach, Anthony Franciosa, Billy Barty
Firepower is a drinking game. Each time something explodes or bursts into
flames you must take a shot...ten minutes in...you're WASTED!!! This is a rare
Michael Winner 70's effort with no Bronson in sight. The ultimate replacement
recipe equals James Coburn, O.J. Simpson and Billy Barty. What arises is
arguably the last bad ass Coburn role and the completion of the O.J. holy
trinity which began with The Klansman and Capricorn One.
Enter at your own risk...full bottle recommended.

Planet of Storms (1962)
Soviet Union
aka Planeta Bur
Director: Pavel Klushantsev
Deja vue is what you're feeling, but its just the fact that Roger Cormen used footage from this Russian film in 38 ½ of his own low budget ‘classics’ (woe is thee, Mask of the Red Death.) Startling, poetic and expanding...the future of what what SciFi was before Star Wars, Capitalism and the Now got hold of it...worship.
