Double Dribble
I’m back in NY after a great rehearsal in Philly. We got to finish up some ideas and concepts that we’ve been playing with for quite some time. We’re going to be playing a show in late October that’s supposed to be a night of “experimental” music/bands. We kind of fit in this category but it’s given us an excuse to do some weirder stuff that we’ve discussed in the past.
We watched Brainscan Saturday night. It was fun to watch something with such a strong mid 90s kind of feel. I’m sure if I had seen this movie when it came out I would have loved it but it was still enjoyable. There was some really great music in there like Primus and White Zombie. Today we watched Night of the Dribbler with lunch. I got this movie from Amazon the other day and it was one of the few times that I brought a movie to watch in Philly that I hadn’t yet watched. The movie was made in the mid 90s (fitting the cinematic theme) but was “lost” and never released in theaters or home video until recently when it was found in a warehouse or some craziness. It’s supposed to be “the first and only basketball horror-slasher-comedy” according to the box. It’s definitely got a lot of basketball. I can’t say there’s much genuine horror but it’s got elements of a slasher film. There’s a crap ton of comedy though mostly unintentional. I could talk a lot of trash about this movie but I was entertained by it’s junkiness. It was also great to see an accidental shot of what looked like electrical and masking tape covering up some nipples. Both movies are worth downloading or checking out on Netflix. Balls.
