The Grand Illusion

It's Devo meets GREASE in VOYAGE OF THE ROCK ALIENS, a genre-bending musical mutation from the outer limits of the cosmos (aka 1984). A group of new wave extraterrestrials blast through the galaxy in a guitar-shaped spaceship, searching for the truest form of rock 'n' roll. After witnessing Dee Dee (Pia Zadora, HAIRSPRAY) competing to become the top rocker in the small town of "Speelburgh," the UFO lands on Earth and sets off total mayhem—including Michael Berryman (THE HILLS HAVE EYES) as a chainsaw-wielding psychopath. Combining the electric experimentation of early MTV with the spirits of ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW and STAR WARS, VOYAGE OF THE ROCK ALIENS is a glorious, coked-out spectacle that's guaranteed to make you happy.

Tickets are pay-what-you-will with a $5 minimum. All money from ticket sales will go to the Grand Illusion’s relocation fund. Kids 12 and under are free. This movie is rated PG, but it was released a few months before the PG-13 rating was introduced. If it had been released later, it more than likely would have received a mild PG-13 rating. Check out the parents guide on IMDb for more information.

The movie will start at approximately 9:00 pm, but be sure to come early to hang out and get great drinks and good food from the brewery. The fine folks at Dirty Couch are planning a lamb leg roast on a rotisserie, with pita, onions, tomatoes, lettuce, and Tzatziki available to make up a pleasing plate. This meal will only be available until around 8pm, so be sure to arrive before then if you want to make it a dinner and a movie. More fun stuff will be happening earlier in the day. Stay tuned for more info.

“…the songs are delightful. The outfits are all that you could hope for, and the slightly ramshackle quality just makes the film all the more endearing. A future midnight-movie classic.” Jason Shawhan, Nashville Scene

“A jaw-dropping and wildly entertaining time capsule on every pop culture level imaginable.” Mondo Digital
