THE KING VS. THE KING OF THE DEAD
An aging Elvis Presley and an African-American “JFK” stay in a nursing home where nothing much happens - that is, until a wayward Egyptian mummy comes and sucks out the old people’s souls thru their a-holes. The two decide to fight back.
I got to go see a screening with the director, writer, and Bruce before this opened wide. Super cool to hear from them.
I went to a screening of John Dies at the End in 2012 and met Don Coscarelli afterwards. He was standing off to the side chatting with someone who appeared to be a friend of his.
I’d brought my DVD of Bubba Ho-Tep and asked him to autograph it. He looked at me for a couple of seconds, turned to his friend, and said “Can you believe that it’s been 10 years, and people still like this movie?” We all laughed and he was happy to sign it. Very cool guy.
Yeah, I’ve heard that Don is a super chill dude who really appreciates his fans. :)
