A Christmas Present

My friend J said I was the inspiration for this fine video he created as a Christmas gift to me. I'm honored!

The Glory of the 80's

In line all of the cult stuff I've put up recently I thought I'd change it up a bit by putting up a cult movie. It is obvious that the 80's were glorious. So why point it out? I'd much rather present you all with a particularly glamorous fake gem from 1985 - the cult classic "The Last Dragon" directed by Michael Schultz. Think Bruce Lee from Harlem combined with a Karate Kid inspired plot. He tries not to fight, but be warned that when he does its on a gigantic illuminated neon glass dance floor complete with lasers, fog and synthesized specialty soundtrack. Also, who doesn't want a gigantic pink plastic triangle to hold their hair together?

The Jonestown Death Tape

I have been developing a recent obsession with the cult leader Reverend Jim Jones, or J.J. as I have so lovingly nicknamed him. Yesterday I discovered his infamous "death tapes" online; the 45 min audio recording of his final sermon before they all drank the kill-aid and blissed out on revolutionary suicide. You can hear babies and children crying in the background as Jim Jones basically tells them all to get on with it. I have also included a link to the original FBI transcript of the tape for your perverse entertainment...
