Once far away, light years, distances beyond thought, a great slender ship with a tail of fire

slid through the black reaches of space. On that ship was Zatine, a prisoner named Zatine.

Words cannot describe his evil, but shortly thereafter,

Zatine escaped in a tiny scout craft.

A fantastic escape from that spaceship.

And soon he found a hiding place on the planet.

Junk Food Cinema, Hi, this is Dick Miller.

If you're listening to Junk Fu Cinema,

who were these guys?

Yeah. Welcome and thank you for visiting Jump Food Cinema brought to you by FilmSchool Rejects.com.

Dot cam.

Dot com.

Dot hail setine. This is, of course, the weekly cult and exploitation film cast so good it just has to be fattening i'm your host brian salsbury and uh i'm afraid cargo could not be here today because he is busy with the uh cissophian task of descending atlanta's largest escalator but in his stead guest today, I'm beyond thrilled to have this gentleman on the show.

He was for many years a programmer at the Alamo Draft House.

He's currently the lead film programmer at the Austin Film Society.

He is a fellow lover of the esoteric and an author.

His new book Warped and Fated is, I would say, an exhaustive history of the Alamo Draft House of Weird Wednesday in the formation of the American Genre Film Archive.

Lars Nilsson, welcome to the show, sir.

Hello there.

Yeah, you're way more hyped up than I am.

I, you must have just had your first seven cups of coffee because you were ready to go.

Yeah, I mean, I dump a little bit of Four Locco in my coffee just to give it that extra edge. So, you know, I'm definitely amped up.
