URANIUM CAFE DOUBLE FEATURE: PSYCHO A GO-GO W/ MANOS: THE HANDS OF FATE
Thursday, February 26th, 2009PSYCHO A GO-GO
1965/Director: Al Adamson/Writers: Mark Eden, Chris Martino
Cast: Roy Morton, Tacey Robbins, Nadine Arlyn, John Armond, Joey Benson, Johnnie Decker, Kirk Duncan
Al Adamson is one of those filmmakers who divide the masses. In this case he divides not the masses of main stream movie goers from the purveyors of b-movies and fringe indie-films, but divides the very schlock movie crowd itself. Even lovers of “bad cinema” find Adamson’s work to be intolerable. Now before I continue I should make clear, as I have done before with films like The Creeping Terror, that while I put this film into my bad movies to avoid category I can still recommend it to the elect few. When I say avoid this film I am speaking here of course to the bulk of mankind who did not grow up in the shadow of a leaky nuclear power plant. There are of course those of the cognoscenti who spend a lot of time searching for these oddities in the back of small video/DVD stores or online in eclectic BT sites. I have to admit that I fall into this category of masochistic film viewers who wants to not avoid the works of people like Al Adamson but wants to see as many as I can. That being said, if you do not fall into this category you are well advised to steer clear of Psycho A Go-Go, and most certainly clear of this Double Feature’s second feature, Manos: The Hands of Fate.
