Through November 27, Dead of the Living Night is up at Space 1026. Artwork by Jonathan Cammisa and Jonah Birns includes a recreation of a horror video store, imagery crafted from gore magazines, found photos and movies stills, and a life-sized stack of monster corpses.

Poprally at MOMA

permalink

In honor of its concurrent exhibition Spike Jonze: The First 80 Years, the MOMA's collaborative arts series Poprally has invited Patrick O'Dell to create a compilation of skate videos from the 1980s on. The screening this Thursday includes a conversation with Jonze, Lance Mountain, Greg Hunt, Jake Phelps, Ty Evans and other skateboarding legends. Sadly, it's already sold out. Time to call you brother's friend's cousin who once interned for the MOMA and see if he can hook you up.

The Rock-afire Explosion

permalink

As an adult, it's not unusual to look back at the staples of your childhood and realize they were all vaguely creepy. Such is definitely the case with Showbiz Pizza and its animatronic band, The Rock-afire Explosion. A group of musical robots in animal suits, it didn't get any weirder, and now it's memorialized in a documentary, called The Rock-afire Explosion, screening tonight at Anthology Film Archives. There will be pizza. (Via The Moment.)

Theroux x Moscot x Mullholland Drive

permalink

Actor Justin Theroux has teamed up with Moscot to release a direct copy of the glasses he wore in the cult-classic film Mulholland Drive. They are definitely a welcome departure from the Wayfarer and look totally unique in style. I could definitely see grabbing these up for my old man. X - Jen
