Robert Ginty. 1948-2009

VARIETY article on the passing of Robert Ginty.

Ginty's defining cinematic role, THE EXTERMINATOR, was a cable cult classic for me and one of the films that anybody could put on and I'd sit down and watch the whole thing.



His was a varied and interesting career. The streets are less safe without him.

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST! + SERIOUS EXPLOITATION SONG OF THE WEEK 5/24/09

Not only do I have my own movie-related/blog issues, I got internal band problems at a late date and a Christian punk rock kid going to A.A this weekend.


I gotta talk all these kids down and deal my own desire to keep the SERIOUS EXPLOITATION SONG OF THE WEEK going. Which I'm going to. So here it is.

First, SERIOUS EXPLOITATION SONG OF THE WEEK :



Second, Christian kid going to A.A. and internal band problems, this should solve it :



I don't have all the answers so this one's for me. I get to have a country radio station that plays only 60's-80's country out of Brunswick, GA. It's a plus in a minus town:





All ya'll, quit calling me.

Oh, and this because I missed it last week.

Poggiali is one of my heroes. I'm fighting for a library science degree. Which means he joins the ranks of Westerberg, Peckinpah, Oates and Stanhope.

Always have heroes.

Hope this isn't creepy, Chris. I really do mean it.

I'm Sorry.

I so want to do movie related things and sometimes I get that weird buzz to do them. Then I get all fucked and A.D.D.. Like right now. Music has so taken over my life as well as my band. Here's my movie poster from a movie poster generator.



The last four movies I watched were:

PRINCE OF THE CITY

THE BIG BUS

JOHNNY HANDSOME

BLAST OF SILENCE

My heart's in the right place.


LAST OF THE FINEST

SERIOUS EXPLOITATION APPROVED SONG OF THE WEEK-5/14/09

While I'm working on this stupid little piece about young people in the movies and how I can't relate anymore because they look TOO young, enjoy the SERIOUS EXPLOITATION APPROVED SONG OF THE WEEK. You're gonna have to go off this page though.



This is Something Fierce, a band from Houston, TX. I don't know what's going on in Texas, but they're putting out some kick-ass rock and roll. I mean, they always have, but with Denton's kind of defunct Marked Men and these guys (and gal), they've got the lock on run around the room and break something rock and roll. The song you need to listen to is TEENAGE RUINS. Click the link below and listen to one of the best songs I've ever heard. I can't stop listening to it. It makes life better, guaranteed.
