In the grand tradition seeking out and screening low budget-high entertainment films, the A/V Geeks are proud to present “Manster”. In this late 1950s Japanese film, an American reporter Larry Stanford, eager to return to the States and his wife, is sent on one last assignment – interviewing a mad scientist who lives on top of a volcano. The scientist sees Stanford as a perfect subject for his experiment involving evolution and cosmic rays. Predictably, this experiment doesn’t end well. This event is FREE, but donations will be accepted. Show up early to catch a film from the A/V Geeks archive and stay after to play trivia and win valuable prizes!
