HEART ATTACK: The Early Pulse Pounding Cinema of Kelly Hughes (2013)
Dir: Kelly Hughes | USA, 2013 | 56 mins

From 1991-1993, while Nirvana and Twin Peaks made the Pacific Northwest hip, Hughes quietly created an unprecedented body of work on Seattle's public access TV. His weekly series Heart Attack Theatre was the video equivalent of grunge rock. Aiming for a classy Twilight Zone style suspense anthology, he ended up with a John Waters-esque shock-a-thon, shooting most of his footage in and around his apartment near the University of Washington. In this documentary, Hughes interviews his actors to reveal a pre-YouTube era of do-it-yourself film-making. And showcases his native Seattle in all its trashy glory.

LA CAGE AUX ZOMBIES: Directors Cut! (2013)
Dir: Kelly Hughes | USA, 2013 | 50 mins

Zombies, drag queens, drug dealers, glamour, trash, action, suspense, murder, make-up and so much more!! This rarely screened low budget classic was originally released straight to video in 1995 this special directors cut, ups the pace and gives us a no holds barred rollor coatser ride through trashville!!
