Jeffrey M. Anderson's 400 Screens, 400 Blows - Poultrygeist
Filed under: Columns », 400 Screens, 400 Blows »

I noticed that Lloyd Kaufman's Poultrygeist (subtitled Night of the Chicken Dead) has finally emerged in theaters (currently playing on 1 screen). Kaufman is the president of Troma, a production company and distributor that has survived as an indie for over 30 years, mainly due to salesmanship. By any count, they have been responsible for at least 150 movies, and Kaufman himself has over 200 on his resume. Anyone who has ever frequented a video store has probably come across titles like Blondes Have More Guns (1995), Cannibal! The Musical (1996), Chopper Chicks in Zombietown (1991), Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger Part IV (2000) (and, indeed, the entire Toxic Avenger series), Class of Nuke 'Em High (1986), Femme Fontaine: Killer Babe for the C.I.A. (1994), Killer Condom (1996), A Nymphoid Barbarian in Dinosaur Hell (1991), Rabid Grannies (1988), Sgt. Kabukiman N.Y.P.D. (1991), Surf Nazis Must Die! (1987) and Tromeo and Juliet (1996). They have also distributed such nuggets as Brian De Palma's The Wedding Party (1969), Samuel Fuller's Shark! (1969) and Dario Argento's The Stendhal Syndrome (1996).

I must admit -- I was not a fan of Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey's How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. That being said, I like Hudson and McConaughey, and I like good romcoms, so I'm pretty curious about their next flick, Fool's Gold. The film stars McConaughey as Ben, a treasure hunter obsessed with a specific exotic treasure lost at sea in the 1700s. Hudson plays his estranged wife, Tess, who goes to work on Nigel Honeycutt's (Donald Sutherland) fancy yacht. When Ben finds a big clue about the treasure, he convinces Honeycutt to join him on the search, and rekindles things with Tess.
If a gorgeous locale and two alluring people aren't enough to whet your appetites, how about Sutherland, or heck, Ewen Bremner! Seeing that picture above, all I want to do is sit back, see what Sutherland made of this role, and drink a mojito. How about you?
