GRINDHOUSE at the BRIDGE THEATRE
starts April 6th

Hey Everyone,

I've been working hard with the kind folks over at the Bridge Theatre (home to Midnight Mass) on some special stuff for their opening of GRINDHOUSE on April 6th and it's going to be fantastic! The Bridge is pulling out all the stops for this one and the theatre promises to host the most thrilling run of this film in all of Northern California if not the country. Face it- seeing the movie GRINDHOUSE at a multiplex is just plain wrong. Wrong! See it where it's meant to be seen- at San Francisco's very own Bridge Theatre, proud screener of vintage celluloid sleaze for over a decade now.

Fiercely yours,
Peaches Christ


VINTAGE TRAILER SHOW!
* Get to the Bridge early to catch the ultimate "grindhouse" trailer reel featuring thirty minutes of rare vintage exploitation trailers from the 60's & 70's! This continuous reel of authentic grindhouse trailers begins thirty minutes before each scheduled showtime. Titles below.


TRIVIA CONTESTS & GRINDHOUSE GIVEAWAYS!
* Opening weekend giveaways are happening at every show! Trivia contests will precede the feature. Prizes include Grindhouse movie Soundtracks (features a rockin' score by director Robert Rodriguez with vocals by the film's star Rose McGowan)., Grindhouse Movie Posters, the Peaches Christ Short Film Collection DVD featuring her short film "Grindhouse", free movies, popcorn, and more!


ON-HAND NURSE!
*Due to the shocking nature of this film the management of the Bridge Theatre promise to have a nurse in the lobby of the theatre for the Friday & Saturday evening shows. We anticipate customers may pass out from excitement... or worse!
