HAIL TO THE KINGS, BABY!
What better way to celebrate the birthday of the King of Rock and Roll, than with the King of Cult, Bruce Campbell, in a career-best performance as the one and only Elvis Presley?
WTF Wednesday is thrilled to present Don Coscarelli’s cult classic horror-comedy, BUBBA HO-TEP.
“Elvis and JFK did not die, and today they’re roommates in an East Texas nursing home whose residents are being killed by an ancient Egyptian Soul Sucker named Bubba Ho-Tep. I want to get that on the table at the get-go, so I can deal with the delightful wackiness of this movie, which is endearing and vulgar in about the right proportion.” – Roger Ebert
Based on prolific genre writer Joe R. Lansdale’s novella, and written and directed by Don Coscarelli (PHANTASM, BEASTMASTER). Elvis Presley (Bruce Campbell, THE EVIL DEAD TRILOGY) and JFK (Ossie Davis, DO THE RIGHT THING) team up to save their nursing home from a mummy. What else is there to say?
Come early for the preshow, featuring clips celebrating Elvis, Bruce Campbell, and birthdays (7pm)!
