Saturday!


Terror On Tour (1980; 90 Brain Eaters) : This 1980's low budge slasher film was written by Dell Lekus and directed by Don Edmonds. It stars Rick Styles, Chip Greenman, Rich Pemberton, Dave Galluzzo and so. This film was made in 7 days and the band "The Clowns" was actually a real band call "The Names". This is not the greatest movie but who can say no to a film about a rock band and a psycho killer...
  The Clowns are a rock band trying to make it out of the scene and into the mainstream. They dress in black with faces painted half-clown and half-skull. Their over the top faux onstage mutilation stage theatrics have become a big hit and they like their tunes loud and racy. They’re still playing clubs, but their album has charted and the future looks bright. Until their zany onstage performance of decapitating mannequins may have been taken to heart by a crazed fan. During the show, a dealer is murdered and the cops are sure it was a nutty member of The Clowns taking stage games into reality. Soon enough things really get out of control as dead groupies begin to pop up after every show and party The Clowns are a part of. The police hire a con to go undercover and infiltrate their world in hopes find incriminating evidence to take one of them down. Is it a band member? A promoter? A strung-out junkie? Like a bottle of booze, The Clowns will get to the bottom of it by the time the show is over.
