ALERT. This Sunday, August 16, I’ll be taking part in “It’s a Terrible Movie,” an event brainstormed by Will Radik, loyal Mercury intern and infamous man-about-Portland. Full details are over at PDX Pipeline, but the short version is this: We’ll be screening 1987’s Masters of the Universe—the He-Man flick starring Dolph Lundgren, Frank Langella, that chick from Friends, and Lieutenant Tom Paris—and throughout, Will, KUFO’s Fatboy, and I will be doing live commentary*. Audience members are also encouraged to heckle, and the proceeds will benefit CoHo Productions. It’ll all go down at 10 pm at the CoHo Theater (2257 NW Raleigh, Portland), and admission is $5-10, sliding scale.

(Also, I know it’s Masters of the Universe, with emphasis on the “masters” part, but ever since Will told me which movie we’d be mocking, I’ve had this stuck in my head. IT WON’T GET OUT. Which, actually, I’m totally okay with.)

*Well, Will and Fatboy will be live commentarying, and no doubt being hilarious. I, on the other hand, will probably just be loudly getting drunk near a microphone, rousing myself only to shout occasional obscenities at the crappiest character in the history of cinema.
