Citizen Kane, Gone With the Wind, Casablanca, Ninotchka, The Searchers, Vertigo.

Blockbusters? Indie? Cult? You can get those anywhere. This is the group for movies so bad they're good. The weird, the bizarre, the horrible acting, the ridiculous concepts, the non-work-safe hilarity.

Would you watch a movie called Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter, because a movie with that title must be awesome?  Does your list of cinematic classics include things like Barbare …

There are few periods in film history that were more influential and more fun that the Italian Spaghetti Westerns made between 1964 and the mid 1970s. You will find more action or gun play anywhere.

This is a group for contemporary artists in the Silicon Valley area who desire to meet other artists for the sake of fostering artistic community. Silicon Valley is a tough area to work in as a contemporary artist. With the exception of a few galleries and museums, and some small collegial art programs, meeting other artists so as not to be creating is a vacuum is difficult at best. Engaging with other artists is key to sustaining an art practice, both for the purposes of moral support, getting …
