Keep Rollin Rollin Rollin

     This week- a celebration of France's vampire auteur that avoids almost purposefully avoids his beloved vampire work.

     When Frederic sees a photograph of old ruins by the sea, he suddenly remembers a beautiful young woman his preteen self fell in love with. Obsessing over finding the ruins location, he soon finds himself the target of nefarious forces. Will Frederic find solace in the dilapidated stones or will he only see Lips of Blood (aka Levres de sang).
     Driving along a lonely road late at night, Robert comes across a woman running. Stopping to help the obviously distressed and partially dressed blonde, he soon learns that she has memory issues and doesn't remember who or what she was running from or even who she has spent the last few hours with. A tale of medical negligence and patient abuse- The Night of the Hunted (French title- La nuit des traquees).
     Years ago a small French village murdered a squad of Nazis and dumped their bodies in the lake. As everyone should have. Now the Nazis rise again as zombies hellbent on eating all the women they find and reclaiming one's daughter. Considered by some to be one of the worst films ever made- Zombie Lake (original title Les lac des morts vivants).
     French secret service operative Rick is shot and killed. The only clue to the whereabouts of a new bioweapon he had in his possession is a picture of Eva, a young exotic dancer. Soon a desperate race against an evil syndicate in the search for the dreaded weapon begins on The Sidewalks of Bangkok (aka Les trottoirs de Bangkok).
     All that and Dave gets really reference heavy with the 4th wall breaking meta, Kevin hurries his squirrel scientists to complete their doomsday device, Craig has his say, and Tyler calls out from the void. Join us, won't you?
