other cinema: 'IT CAME FROM KUCHAR' (W/ GEORGE & MIKE IN PERSON)

Two legends of underground filmmaking—twin brothers George and Mike Kuchar—are the subjects of Jennifer Kroot’s new doc, affording a hilarious and at times bittersweet intro to these Mission-based kitsch-meisters. Since the ‘50s, when the teenaged twins wowed the art world with their 8mm extravaganzas, they have continued their low-budget, totally idiosyncratic pursuit of cinematic expression. Alongside Warhol and Anger, the Kuchar brothers were pioneering members of the ‘60s New York underground, and they’ve since inspired John Waters, Guy Maddin, Pedro Almodovar, Todd Solondz, and thousands more. Director Kroot is here in the flesh to present her stars and answer questions, before the show climaxes with the ‘65 Sins of the Fleshapoids. Free wine. $8*
