Hi
friends. This is possibly the most exciting event I have ever held
since I began inviting you to my events. It is the screening party
for the rough cut of my FIRST MOVIE! The absurdist action/comedy
short subject COMBAT
TWISTER and the Further Battles of Kim Fu Yu and Jenny Rancid!
This
15 minute video is the culmination of a year's work and experiences.
It
is a transitional piece that draws from almost everything in my
recent past as well as my near future. The personal significance of
it to me cannot be understated, and I really want to share it with as
many of you as possible. You can see previews of this movie at
http://www.captainzorikh.com/combattwister
The best part of this is that it is
being shown in a screening party at Otto's Shrunken Head
(http://www.ottosshrunkenhead.com/),
a delightfully tacky yet unrefined tiki bar and lounge at 538 East
14th street, between Ave's A & B. At 10 PM the band
STARK (http://www.laniford.com/
they're in the movie) will play. At 11 PM the video will be screened,
then at 11:30 we will all play Twister, hosted by Dana Sterling,
founder of Disco Crisco Twister (http://www.discocriscotwister.com/).
The whole evening is being presented by Watch This Space
(http://www.captainzorikh.com/wts/)
and Frank Wood (http://www.mrfwood.com/).
Please RSVP for the event so I know
that you're coming (and to see who else is), at

You can also see me in this week's
video of NY Rocks TV! I am interviewed for about ten minutes at the
end of the show

You can see my Pennsic War Documentary DVD and Death Star Repairmen
CD on Phil Fiumano's desk starting at 24:53, and I am actually
interviewed starting at 50:23.
And BTW, rehearsals for my next movie,
The Redemption of Captain Zorikh,
have been going extremely well. You can see video of me running a
gaountlet, wrestling every member of the cast, male and female, big
and small, expert and beginner, at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8uMg4EwLZIw&feature=channel_page.
But
we are still looking for a location to shoot the big tournament scene
on or about April 18. Any space suitable for a wrestling tournament
will be spectacular. If mats are available at the space and a place
for an audience to watch the tournament also that would be fabulous.
Our budget is low but we are willing to give exchanges of services or
favors (a part in the film or the making of it, free grappling
lessons, etc) for consideration.
So
I hope I see you all on Wednesday!
