BAR TRASH continues our 14th sensational season — TRASH PLANET 3: APOCALYPSE! — with one of those films that sells itself on the strength of its title alone, SHARKNADO (2013). As the tagline puts it, “Enough said!”.

When a freak tornado swamps Los Angeles, thousands of man-eating sharks are sucked into the swirling vortex, terrorising the water-logged populace and flooding the city with shark-infested seawater. With nature’s deadliest killer ruling sea, land and air, a group of survivors soon realise their best chance to escape the deadly maelstrom is to find a way to destroy it themselves.

Originally streaming to a less-than stellar 1.4million people on the Syfy Channel, SHARKNADO was propelled into cult film superstardom over the next 24hrs through the power of social media. Generating 5,000 tweets a minute at the peak of its Twitter storm, social media A-listers like Wil Wheaton shared their watching experience, adding further hype to the feeding frenzy.

SHARKNADO is exactly the kind of chaos that people expect to see at BAR TRASH, but it is much more than the sum of its PlayStation 2-era CGI body parts. Energetically paced and deeply committed to its own inherent absurdity (energies lost between the title and execution by the similarly hyped SNAKES ON A PLANE), SHARKNADO retains its crown as the ultimate SyFy CGI shark battle and is the perfect film to get drunk to (just take a gulp every time someone yells ‘shark!’).

Polite notice: We are presenting SHARKNADO without subtitles from the best available digital source.

BAR TRASH continues our 14th sensational season — TRASH PLANET 3: APOCALYPSE! — with a special presentation of two post-apocalyptic films made with no money and pleasingly short run times: Michael J. Murphy’s DEATH RUN (1987) and Steven Kostanski’s MANBORG (2011).

DEATH RUN aka ‘Mutant City’ dir Michael J. Murphy (1987 / UK / 73mins)

Shot entirely on home cinema format Super 8mm, DEATH RUN is a rare, bargain basement ‘maxploitation’ flick from prolific British diy filmmaker Michael J. Murphy. A young couple awake from suspended animation after a nuclear war. Captured by marauders, they are taken to Junk City where the tyrannical Messiah forces them to compete in the ‘Run’, a deadly game where participants are handcuffed to an electrified wire and forced to run its length downhill while fighting mutants barefisted.

MANBORG dir Steven Kostanski (2011 / Canada / 62mins)

A throwback to 1980s sci-fi horror action films, MANBORG is the story of a dead soldier who is reanimated as a cyborg killing machine to fight Nazi vampires in the far future. “A marvel of DIY makeup, costuming and special effects" (Toronto Star), MANBORG was made by makeup artist turned DIY filmmaker Steven Kostanski for roughly $1000 Canadian dollars with live action sequences shot in his parents’ garage and everything else thrown together in post production. Befitting our TRASH PLANET 3 season theme, costumes and props were made from recycled junk salvaged from dumpsters, and regularly needed gluing back together during filming.

Polite notice: DEATH RUN screens with subtitles. MANBORG screens without subtitles. Both films will be projected from the best available digital sources. Please approach the original lo-fi materials for these ultra-low budget films with love, wonder and empathy. There will be one intermission between the two films.
