Small town hairdresser Gail Daughtry is engaged to her devoted high school sweetheart, Tom. Her life takes a turn when a trip to a book signing leads to Tom meeting – and sleeping – with his “celebrity pass”. Reeling from the betrayal, Gail impulsively joins her friend Otto on a trip to Los Angeles, where a psychic convinces Gail that the only way to save her marriage is to “even the scales” with her own celebrity pass: Jon Hamm. Thus begins an epic journey through Tinseltown as Gail and Otto join forces with a talent agency assistant, a paparazzo, and actor John Slattery, all in the search for Hamm. Along the way, they collide with celebrities and are hunted by a group of Italian assassins as they get ever closer to finding the elusive star.

Regen Projects is pleased to present Abstract or Regular?, an exhibition of new video work and a painting by Alex Hubbard.
The show includes six larger than life animations projected onto wooden constructions cut to the shape of their subjects, ranging from cartoon characters to an electrocuted pickle. These works demonstrate Hubbard’s solution to the self-imposed challenge of presenting motion within a fixed object—a physical constraint he contests in works where animated movements push beyond the confines of the custom “screen.”

The bodies of cops, gangsters, and civilians alike begin to pile up when the goods required for a high-stakes arms deal go missing as part of an elaborate scheme to screw over its vicious middleman. But the situation really spirals out of control when two married officers are thrust into the middle of it all, forcing them onto the path of vigilante vengeance. With a star-studded cast including "girls with guns" legend Moon Lee (ANGEL TERMINATORS II), Phillip Ko (THE BOXER'S OMEN), and Ray Lui (HUNTING LIST) and a car chase so irresponsible that you'll never forget it, FATAL TERMINATION is one of the wildest Hong Kong action films ever made.
