Another week inside? We've got some streams and other online fun.


  














Weird Wednesday: WONDER WOMEN
Available Apr 22, 2020, 5:00 PM
$7.75

This is possibly the oddest duck of all Filipino movies, and there have been some real mind-bogglers. This one stars lovely Asian-American Nancy Kwan as a transplant doctor who does a brisk business grafting the sex organs of healthy young male athletes onto the bodies of over-the-hill millionaires. She's aided by a lightly clad army of sexy kung-fu amazons and Sid Haig as an effeminate penis salesman. Do I seriously need to keep typing? (Lars Nilsen, Weird Wednesday host/programmer 2001-2013)
Bonus features include:
- Special intro from Alicia Coombs (AGFA, Cherry Bomb programmer)
- Alamo Drafthouse preshow experience

AGFA and Something Weird Present
DRUG STORIES!

REEFER MADNESS
Both $4.20

From the Something Weird and AGFA archives, we're presenting the hilarious compilation DRUG STORIES – featuring very dramatic re-enactments, spiders on speed, animated LSD tabs, lots of "cold, hard facts," and some straight talk from the inspiration behind STRANGERS WITH CANDY's Jerri Blank. Then we've got REEFER MADNESS, the seminal cult classic from 1936 so preposterous it's like a transmission from Mars. Both films are priced – naturally – at $4.20.
