The Death of Lupe Velez

Grantbridge Street has this old underground comic era story of the self inflicted unexpectedly ignominious death of Kongo co-star Lupe Velez by Jim Osborne. It should be rendered in blacklight velvet flocked posters......

About Us

All of the inmates here at Celluloid Slammer are incarcerated for the same crime - love of movies! The good, bad, ugly - we don't use such mundane terminology.

Many of us honed our skills in working in video stores, and others have chosen - beyond all advice to the contrary - to work in "the biz" exposed by such hard-hitting exposes like "The Oscar" and "The Loved One."

Then there are those of us who grew up only to be disappointed that life didn't have parties like "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls," or took LSD only to find that it wasn't like Mimsy Farmer portrayed.

In any case, we all ended up here - the Slammer!

Hell, it cuts down on innumerable cc'd "Have you ever seen THIS?"emails to LA, Boston, NY, Wales, Montreal, North Carolina, Virginia - the Slammer's inmates aren't bothered by pesky maps. Or reality. Check yourself in!
