Good Grief!

Public service announcement: Philadelphians who missed Bubba Ho Tep at the Prince in February can see it this weekend as part of the Bryn Mawr Theatre’s midnight movie series (what? no link? Sheesh. Call 610-520-7373 for details).

In other exciting news, the DVD will be available on May 25th—you can pre-order at Amazon.

Bubba Ho Tep is one of the best movies I’ve seen recently: a cheesy, destined-for-cult-classic-status flick with some depth. See the movie if you’re interested in any of the following:

• the demise (?) of Elvis Presley and his pal JFK
• soul-sucking mummies who write hieroglyphics in the visitor’s bathroom stall
• unexpected heroes
• the plight of being old and poor in this country.
