“That’s really quite a world that you’ve shown me. German scientists are as tall as the Empire State Building, and aliens are as big as jumbo shrimp.”
Liquid Sky (1983) plays midnights this weekend (June 15th and 16th) at the Tivoli as part of their Reel Late at the Tivoli Midnight series.
Equal parts satire, self-parody, and science fiction, Liquid Sky was considered ‘New Wave’ chic back in ’83. I saw it then when it played at The Varsity on Delmar and it should be interesting to see how it’s aged. Aliens are after the heroin-like substance produced by the human brain at the point of orgasm. Anne Carlisle, who cowrote the screenplay, plays a lesbian punk model and also male homosexual punk model (talk about range!). As a woman, Carlisle discovers a special sexual power. At orgasm she can make her lover disappear into thin air, courtesy of some low-tech special effects.

Remembered as a briefly hot quasi- avant-garde title, then a cult item, Slava Tsukerman’s brightly colored movie is said to capture a New York fashion ‘n’ drugs scene that could be called Neon Punk. It certainly extended model Anne Carlisle’s fifteen minutes of fame. Oh . . . technically it’s also a Science Fiction movie.
