AMERICAN MUMMY 3D, RED SPIRIT LAKE, More Announced for PINION ARMAGEDDON New York

Charles Pinion, the director behind the notorious shot-on-video features "Twisted Issues," "Red Spirit Lake" and "We Await" invades New York for a week’s worth of events to promote his newest feature "American Mummy" from Wild Eye Releasing. 

This one week only east coast appearance by Pinion will include some extremely rare screenings that will be an absolute must for fans of macabre, transgressive and just plain weird cinema.

The events kick off Sept. 12 at Alamo Drafthouse in Yonkers, NY, for a special 3-D screening of "American Mummy" as part of their 3-Delirium series. 

Then on Sept. 15 head to Superchief Gallery for a night of obscure cuts from Pinion’s sordid back catalogue, including his insanely obscure 1990s adult videos and a very rare screening of the completely uncensored cut of "Red Spirit Lake." 

On Sept. 16 meet Charles in a more intimate setting at NYC’s Forbidden Planet, where you can grab an autographed copy of Wild Eye Releasing’s Blu-ray or DVD release of "American Mummy" as well as some other rare Pinion pieces. 

Then later that night head over to the legendary Cinema Village for a late night screening of "American Mummy."

What would a trip to NYC be without a warm welcome from some of the cities most revered underground artists? 

Scooter McCrae’s newest short "Saint Frankenstein" will be supporting both "American Mummy" screenings and Tommy Turner (who appeared in Pinion’s "Red Spirit Lake") will be presenting his little-seen 1985 short "The Magician" at the Superchief Gallery event.

Tuesday September 12 9 p.m. 
American Mummy presented in 3-D, preceded by Scooter McCrae’s Saint Frankenstein at Alamo Drafthouse in Yonkers, NY. With Charles Pinion and Scooter McCrae in attendance.

*American Mummy’s only NYC area 3D screening!* Two kings of 1990s shot-on-video artsploitation team up to show off their new releases, both super-freaky takes on those old Universal Monsters tropes we know and love. Pinion’s American Mummy is a madcap blood-drenched desert romp that’s loaded with 3D gore effects, and Saint Frankenstein is McCrae’s profoundly creepy short film that asks about the Monster’s current whereabouts. Even Andy Warhol would blush!
