Bikers By Day...Ninjas By Night...The Action Show and Miami Connection!

So here's  something sweet that's going on in Michigan...on Saturday, February 2nd @ 10pm the historic Michigan Theater in downtown Ann Arbor will be showing one of my favorite film discoveries of the past year, MIAMI CONNECTION! A true "anti-sanity" masterpiece  recently exhumed from its forgotten grave of obscurity  by the fine folks over at Drafthouse films. Miami Connection may just be the world's best ninja/ biker/ rock and roll film of all time! I saw it for the first time a few months back at a midnight showing on its original theatrical re-lease run at the Main Art in Royal Oak and it had the packed house eating out of it's fucking hand! It seriously blew the minds out of the fucking skulls of the group of hardened and knowledgeable film freaks I saw it with like nobody's business! In honor of its theatrical return, Jeremy Wheeler over at Bang! media has organized an art show/pre-party for one night only before the film! The show is called THE ACTION SHOW and will feature art inspired by the films and aesthetic of 1980's action movies. I will have some new work in the show and possibly some prints to sell. THE ACTION SHOW will be in the Vault Ultra Lounge located inside Ann Arbor's sickest comic shop, The Vault Of Midnight (219 S. Main St. , Ann Arbor, MI, 48104), so come on out and tie a few on before the film!
