Dumpster Raccoon Series: Flash Gordon (1980)
The Revue Cinema announces our new DUMPSTER RACCOON SERIES hosted by Anthony Oliveira!
SEE THE FILM that its own screenwriter declared to his infinite distress “GOT WAY OUT OF CONTROL!”
SEE THE FILM that George Lucas didn’t get to make, so he made some dumb old Star War thing INSTEAD!
SEE THE FILM that is such a glorious camp masterpiece, ONLY QUEEN COULD SCORE IT!
SEE: FLASH GORDON!!!! W/ pre-show drag performance!
When evil intergalactic overlord MING THE MERCILESS (Max Von Sydow, somehow???) grows too bored, he decides to DECIMATE THE EARTH! Only beefy football hero FLASH GORDON and glamorous travel agent DALE ARDEN (and some scientist; who cares) can save the day!
BRIAN BLESSED IS ALSO THERE AND HE HAS WINGS AND A LEATHER HARNESS??? WE’RE PRETTY SURE HE’S DRUNK??? ALSO IS THAT TIMOTHY DALTON??
A true camp classic that landed just as science fiction and comic book movies were demanding to take themselves seriously, FLASH GORDON is a glorious, joyous explosion of music, costumes, and giddy glee! DON’T MISS IT! - Anthony Oliveira
(Flash Gordon - 1980 - PG - 114min.)
With pre-show drag queen performance by legendary star of Church St stage and Netflix screen, Erin Brockobić!
