3:30 pm
MASTER OF THE FLYING GUILLOTINE (1975) The ultra-weird martial arts masterpiece! A blind assassin armed with a vicious flying guillotine is out to kill the legendary one-armed boxer (martial arts superstar Jimmy Wang Yu). Along the way, he interrupts a bizarre kung fu tournament and heads start to roll. It's up to the one-armed boxer now, with his skull shattering punch and his ability to walk on walls. Eagle claw masters, a monkey style fight, and a Swami fighter with ten 
foot arms are just stepping stones to the massive showdown with the flying guillotine. Filmed in Super Cine-Vision!
5:30 pm
GATES OF HELL (1980) A surreal Italian gutmuncher from gore-maestro Lucio Fulci! A priest commits suicide and unwittingly opens the gateway to hell. The rotting dead rise from their graves to feed on the living in gruesome fashion, while a psychic and a journalist attempt to stop the rancid carnage. This is Lucio Fulci at his finest, so forget about the “plot” and prepare yourself for zombie killing, head drilling, and intestine spilling! Powered by Fabio Frizzi's creepy soundtrack and top notch special effects.
7:30 pm
LADY TERMINATOR (1988) A beautiful woman is possessed by an ancient mystical queen out for vengeance, turning her into an unstoppable killing machine! She takes off on a rampage across Indonesia, gunning down anyone who gets in her way, and blowing apart half of the country. She also sports a mean leather jacket… except when she's naked… which is a lot. But for those foolish enough to try to put their hands on her, she also castrates men with an eel that lives in her vagina. Bullet-riddled disco shootouts, mind-boggling dialogue, a mullet-headed cop who drives a tank, and so much more. All in full-throttle '80s excess!

I want to go because I love ridiculousness.
December 28, 2010 at 06:46
Sweet. i live about two blocks from the Hollywood and have come to know the place quite well. Also I’ve had the flu over Xmas and went on a little horror movie (and Simpsons) kick to pass the time. Would love to check this out.
December 28, 2010 at 07:16
I would like to be entered for the contest because I’m a huge hardcore grindhouse fan. Every chance I get, I attend the screenings at the Hollywood theater in full support!
December 28, 2010 at 08:37
Wow! Three super amazing films! AND beer?! I would love to start the new year off in such a perfect theater ambience–particularly because I probably won’t want to be moving around too much after the previous evening!

Just got laid off the day before Thanksgiving and married the day after. Still haven’t found work yet, but I think this would take my wife’s mind off of it. And if she wanted to talk about it, all I’d have to do is whisper, “Shh. We’re in a movie theater.” I wouldn’t even sound like a jerk. It’s a win/win situation.

Awesome! I missed Flying Guillotine the first time around. Not going to miss it this time!
December 28, 2010 at 10:24
It’s necessary for my survival that I learn how to a) mate, then terminate, b) wield and deploy a flying guillotine, and c) fight off Italian zombies. Only seeing these three movies for free will net me the kind of savior faire I need.
December 28, 2010 at 11:23
Free tix would be awesomeness for my first dip into grindhouse mania!
December 28, 2010 at 11:34
Movie marathon on a cold, rainy day with beer. Count me in.
Please.
December 28, 2010 at 13:18
I’m only an apprentice of the Flying Guillotine so it’s mandatory I see this flick in order to advance my skills to the level of master. That, and lady terminators of course
December 28, 2010 at 14:24
Sounds like a great way to be hung over the day after New Years Eve. :)
December 28, 2010 at 14:38
This would be a very interesting movie marathon.
December 29, 2010 at 23:51
I live for film, and since moving to Portland a few months ago I have had zero opportunity to get out and see any! Nothing like a grindhouse marathon to enliven my passion!
December 30, 2010 at 09:29
Grindhouse is what film is all about. The oldschool gritty feel to film. Just all out awesome!
December 30, 2010 at 14:37
Lucio Fulci films are great. I would love to attend the fest
December 31, 2010 at 01:15
Titties, unspeakable English dubbing, and physically impaired kung-fu.
December 31, 2010 at 07:00
I’d like to win tickets because I’m too damned cheap to buy any.
December 31, 2010 at 08:22
I would like to win the tickets because I need something good to end the old and bring in the new.
December 31, 2010 at 08:56
Fun stuff.
December 31, 2010 at 09:04
My man would loooove to go to this! He is a movie freak-has his own ‘theater’ in his basement. And, bonus, it’s the beginning of the New Year, so what better way to bring it on than with this Ptown extravaganza. Cheers!

grindhouse movies are the best thing since saturday morning cartoons. i would LOVE to win tickets for this awesome showing.
December 31, 2010 at 09:25
If I don’t attend these features, how will I learn the ways of the kung fu zombie killing vagina eel? HOW??????
December 31, 2010 at 09:27
What a way to celebrate the new year! I love movies and promise I won’t be too hungover to really enjoy them!
December 31, 2010 at 09:28
HUGE fan of Grindhouse & Dan Halsted! Pick me, pick me, pick me! I NEED this full day of grindhouse blitz to start 2011 off RIGHT. Thanks to PDXPipeline for keeping us schmucks updated on RAD events & opportunities to get it into ‘em for free! (yep, I’m a name dropper & a kiss ass) *** hearts & stars ***
December 31, 2010 at 11:25
I want to win !!! So madly !!

“As you think, so shall you become,” ~ Bruce Lee. I think a Grindhouse Film Festival is in my future!
December 31, 2010 at 12:57
Would love to win so I can bask in the glory of grind!
December 31, 2010 at 15:01
I would love to win passes as this sounds like something great to watch as the effects of the previous night’s psychedelics wear off! :)
December 31, 2010 at 16:18
I would love to go because I am a big Grindhouse fan and these are all amazing movies! I also have nothing to do on New Years and I am too broke to pay my own way to the film festival.

New Year’s Resolution #7 – More exploitation on weekends

I’ve wanted to see _Gates of Hell_ since I was a pre-teen growing up in a fundamentalist household.
