About
Join us for a special Georgia on Film double feature! We'll dive into the notorious Film Ventures International, the Atlanta-based production company and watch two of their most notable works. Introduction by Daniel Griffith of Ballyhoo Motion Pictures and Quarlo Video Clinic. Intermission between features. Sponsored by Videodrome and Quarlo Video Clinic — GRIZZLY (1976) | William Girdler, USA, Horror, 91min “ The movie succeeds by alternating between adorable shots of the bear standing upright... and less adorable shots of him bashing heads between tree trunks.” — KINDERTRAUMA Do not miss "18-feet of gut-crunching, man-eating TERROR!" The ill-fated director William Girdler (THE MANITOU, ABBY) truly established himself in the PG horror arena with this achievement that would be widely considered his artistic pinnacle: GRIZZLY. An indestructible, two-story-tall grizzly bear has realized that human beef beats the hell out of nuts and berries, and it's up to Ranger Mike (Christopher George, GATES OF HELL) and hotheaded gunman Don (Andrew Prine, SIMON, KING OF THE WITCHES) to bring the carnivorous menace to its hairy knees. But when a couple dozen drunk-ass hunters enter the forest on a suicide mission to nail the beast... count on a tidal wave of pine-scented bloodshed. There's no disputing — GRIZZLY is the third most upsetting PG movie ever made! — MUTANT (aka Night Shadows) (1984) | John "Bud" Cardos, USA, Horror, 99min “ Fun in a DAWN OF THE DEAD-lite meets CHUD-lite way.” – Stacie Ponder, FINAL GIRL Wings Hauser (VICE SQUAD) wears short-shorts and battles toxic zombies in the 1980s rager know as MUTANT! Josh (Hauser) and Mike are brothers vacationing in a small southern town... where most of the residents are either dead or missing. After Mike disappears, Josh (Hauser), the local sheriff, and a school teacher team up and discover that the whole town has been transformed into toxic-wastoid zombies!
