Stomp! Shout! Scream!

The "Stomp! Shout! Scream!" DVD arrived in the mail today. After watching the clips on the Official Site I couldn't wait to watch it, the expectation paid off. Directed by Jay Wade Edwards (one of the minds behind Aqua Teen Hunger Force), "Stomp! Shout! Scream!" is a Garage-Beach-Monster-Movie. One of the only genre feature films I've seen recently that pay a respectful homage to the original films and still take themselves seriousley without indluging in their camp-value - which usually creates the exact opposite of what they attempt, there is nothing worse than "camp" that's not entertaining. But again, this is not the case. "Stomp! Shout! Scream!" is funny, looks great and features excellent actors (a very lovely Claire Bronson in particular).

The soundtrack features original songs by Catfight! (check out their Myspace page for more great songs) and songs by possibly the best Garage band playing today, The Woggles.

I urge any fans of the Beach-Party or Beach-Monster films out there to purchase a copy of this film - supporte the arts!



In other news...

* The Pipettes posted two new songs to their Myspace profile- "We Are The Pipettes" and "Pull Shapes". Two great additions by one of today's greatest Girl-Groups. Also watch them live on YouTube.



* Another new band to check out is Vanessa and the O's. Superb French-Pop.
