This Saturday night (6/28, on Twitch, OSI74 Roku and Amazon Fire), Mr. Lobo's Cinema Insomnia hosts A Hard Day's Nightmare, where rock 'n' roll gyrations generate hilarious results.
With Richard Something's 2011, Beatles/Monkees-spoofy creation, fans meet real-life rocker, Roger Oddcock (aka Jamie Milliken) and his Clamhawk Manor bandmates (Frankie, Stu and Eight Track) as they trek to cozy Creepsville West. However, the lads must face an audience of monsters along the way, and monsters are rarely subdued, even when anchored by crazy clowns and animal-suited aggressors. In fact, this ravenous lot is dead set on devouring our irreverent artists to ensure they never play again!
Director Something (who co-wrote with Milliken and George Sukara) gives this venture plenty of pep, accentuated by Clamhawk's catchy compositions. (Really, each tune is polished, melodious and memorable.) The amusing costume and make-up effects (by Dave Haz-Baroque, Brit Zane and Traci Wrycza) are also pretty damn neat.
Keeping with tradition, Mr. Lobo (who cameos in the film) layers his dry whimsy across the presentation, astutely comparing the production to Del Tenney's "The Horror of Party Beach" and Ray Dennis Steckler's "The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-up Zombies". In addition, our eager escort bridges the pic with a jam-full of swinging, sing-along inserts and fast, funny fillers, including A Hard Day's Nightmare drinking game and extra-special-guest interviews with the film's talented makers.
The episode begins at 10 pm, with a fun pre-show. Don't miss the rockin' jubilation!
