Hot Pink Jesus Act III saves Trailer Park Thursday!

Hot Pink Jesus Act III: Have Faith Will Travel from Mad Ones Films

This week on Trailer Park Tuesday – Hot Pink Jesus is here to save us all with the trailer to his latest cinematic effort.  Yes, we’re talking about the latest titanic celluloid outing from the infamous Mad Ones Films of Greensboro North Carolina - Hot Pink Jesus Act III: Have Faith, Will Travel.  The Mad Ones films play like the a nightmarish blend of Tarantino and Rodriguez from an alternate taco-filled reality.  If you’re into grindhouse, grease and tacos – then Hot Pink Jesus is the cinematic savoiur that you’re looking for. 

Don’t take my word for it – let’ hear what the Mad Ones of the wasteland have to say about it:

A gringo whose cozy little job with the Mexican mob went awry, a failed actor and dejected athlete living in the past, a stripping diva with criminal delusions of grandeur, and a prodigal son with something to prove. Unbeknownst to them, they’re all after the same get-rich-quick fix. However, the one man standing in their way doesn’t feel like letting go of his lucky streak just quite yet.

Enter Faith. When a disturbing revelation leads to a life-changing decision, Faith suddenly finds herself plunged headfirst into a shady world of booze, bullets, extortion, larceny and lawn darts. Her only chance for survival is being at the wrong place at the right time because in a world gone mad, bad and dangerous to know, sometimes the only thing that can save you is a little faith.

The Good Critic Dr. Geoff Klock Defends Tarantino's Latest From the Evil Critics.

inglourious-basterds

Dear David Denby,

In discussing the way Inglourious Basterds invokes film and filmmakers — Goebbles, the Art Deco theatre, the cinemaphile characters (including actors and actresses, theatre owners and projectionists, and critics) and the Basterds themselves (“A kind of Jewish Dirty Dozen”) you write, “Tarantino has gone past his usual practice of decorating his movies with homages to others. This time, he has pulled the film-archive door shut behind him — there’s hardly a flash of light indicating that the world exists outside of a nutbrain fable.”

I don’t understand why creating what Tolkien called a “secondary world” should be such a problem. I understand that that is a different project from trying to make a film “about something” (rather than a film that “is that something itself”); I fail to see why the former is necessarily better than the latter. I am also puzzled why of all people a film critic should be so bothered by a film that is soaked in films. It seems to cater to those of us that love film. Also: there are so many plays about plays for example, including Midsummer Night’s Dream — are they all deficient on principle as well?

(Read the rest of Geoff’s defense over at his blog – Remarkable.)
