THE BAD FILM SOCIETY SALUTES
BORIS KARLOFF & JOHN WAYNE AT THEIR STRANGEST

The feature will be The Mask of Fu Manchu from 1932 starring Boris Karloff in his first speaking role. He was cast because his natural lisp made his voice sound like a snake. A British expedition rushes to Mongolia to get the sword and mask of Genghis Khan before the fiendish criminal mastermind Dr. Fu Manchu can use the relics to proclaim himself the new Khan and lead the eastern races on a massive jihad west to exterminate the white race. Get ready for tombs, chambers of unspeakable tortures, an alligator pit, mental enslavement drugs, virgin sacrifice, a gigantic death ray gun and Myrna Loy as Fu Manchu’s very vampy and evil daughter. Hubba-hubba!

Speaking of Genghis Khan…John Wayne was horribly cast as him in the 1956 Howard Hughes production, The Conqueror. It is way too pathetic to sit though the whole thing but we will screen the outrageous dance sequence with Susan Hayward. Double hubba-hubba!

There will be a lip-smackin’, paddy wackin’ pot luck dinner followed by delightfully strange cinema. Bring your cringe inducing old videos to give away as door prizes!

Also stay tuned for the 7th installment of the 1936 serial, Undersea Kingdom starring Crash Corrigan and Lon Chaney, Jr. featuring robots, spiked tanks and ray guns in the Lost City of Atlantis! One of the best!
