"A band on a mission. A door to another dimension." Buffalo 8 has launched the official trailer for a rock comedy called Free LSD, which is not really abut How To Get Free LSD, unfortunately. This wacky, weird punk creation is from a a rock band called Off!, and it's the feature directorial debut from one of the band members - Dimitri Coats (ex-Burning Brides). Alas they are taking an "indefinite hiatus" after a few shows coming up this month. The "breaking up" tour with the band will also include screenings of this film Free LSD showing with a Q&a and other surprises (before it hits VOD). "Sometimes putting the band together is a matter of life and death." This new film is an oddball sci-fi comedy about AI & multiverses. An elderly sex shop owner’s attraction to a younger woman leads him to an erectile dysfunction doctor whose treatment...

Buffalo 8 has acquired the science fiction comedy “Free LSD” from punk rock supergroup Off! and a trailer has been unveiled.

The film, which closed the 2023 Slamdance Film Festival, shares its title with the band’s album that debuted at #20 on the Billboard Album Sales Chart.

“Free LSD” stars Keith Morris (Off!’s frontman) as an elderly sex shop owner who falls for a younger woman. His romantic escapades lead him to an unconventional erectile dysfunction doctor and an experimental drug. The drug’s side effects transport him to a parallel universe where he is not only Off!’s singer but also the target of a relentless AI species bent on preventing the band from creating a consciousness-altering album.

The cast includes Off! bandmates Dimitri Coats and Autry Fulbright II, along with the late Dead Kennedys drummer D.H. Peligro. Joining them are Jack Black, James Duval, Dana Gould, Barry Del Sherman,...

Off!, the hardcore supergroup led by singer Keith Morris and guitarist Dimitri Coats (ex-Burning Brides), have announced a run of final shows to coincide with the release of their new feature film, Free LSD.

The three final shows will take place July 18th at Lincoln Hall in Chicago (with Shellac); July 20th at (Le) Poisson Rouge in New York City (with Fucked Up); and July 26th at The Belasco in Los Angeles (with Surfbort).

Each of those cities will also feature an advance screening of the movie along with a Q&a: July 17th at Music Box Theatre in Chicago; July 19th at Village East by Angelika in NYC; and August 2nd at Nuart Theatre in Los Angeles. Tickets for both the shows and film screenings can be purchased here.

The movie was written and directed by Coats, with a synopsis that is described as follows in a press release:...

"Want what I got? You gotta go all the way." Mill Creek Entertainment has revealed the official trailer for a crime thriller film titled Dead Wrong, the latest from filmmaker Rick Bieber (no relation to Justin Bieber Afaik). This is set for a VOD release at the end of May if anyone is interested in giving this a look. A story of greed, envy, sex and murder. A narcissistic husband is not satisfied anymore and wants more. He devises a psychotic, get-rich-quick scheme with his new, gambling-addicted attorney that ignites an emotional and deadly chain reaction. Which quickly overwhelms the lives of those around him. Sounds like fun, doesn't it? This stars Derek Smith, Katrina Bowden, Chelsea Debo, Cress Williams, Blake Shields, Rosalie Ward, Joshua Bitton, Chet Hanks, with Rob Schneider. Alas this doesn't look like it's worth a rental. // Continue Reading ›...
