THE GHASTLY LOVE OF JOHNNY X
While movie companies like Asylum make shit movies that no one cares about, in a cynical attempt to get audiences they don't like, there are those few Indie filmmakers who never stop raising the birth child of their labor of love.
Whether it's Darren Lynn Bouseman spending years Four-Walling his 2008 magnum opus, REPO: THE GENETIC OPERA! or Caleb Emerson still toiling to bring an audience to his 2005 nudie comedy trashterpiece, DIE YOU ZOMBIE BASTARDS! to the nearly twenty years that crazed directors Wayne Berwick and Ted Newsom took to bring THE NAKED MONSTER merely to Direct to Video. Say what you will about these movies and many have, but you can't deny the unfathomable love these filmmakers have for their precious birth defects.
Which brings me to micro-small time writer and director, Paul Bunnell, and his 1950s retro scifi monster musical, THE GHASTLY LOVE OF JOHNNY X.
Where to begin? Let's start with my 2012 review and bring you up to speed on what is happening in Australia this Friday, January 30, 2015.
