The 1^st Annual East Lansing

Zombie Day

What is it?

Zombie Day is a gathering of like-minded people for a great cause! Part Food Drive, Part Local Business Awareness, and part call to action for the community of East Lansing to stand firm to make Downtown East Lansing cool & relevant again!

Why are we doing it?

Food Drive? Rock concert? ZOMBIES??!! Why wouldn’t we do it?!?! Because 10 years ago, Downtown East Lansing was the center of an amazing Local Music Scene, and the place to be for our indie youth. We’re calling everyone to band together and support the shows, independent business, and help recreate the creative community that can make East Lansing cool again

How do I get involved?

• Simple! Register for updates on Facebook –“Zombie Day East Lansing”, or register in the form below:
• Come to REPLAY ENTERTAINMENT EXCHANGE in Downtown East Lansing on Saturday, May16th @Noon
• Dress like a zombie. Face paint. Ripped clothes. Whatever you want that won’t terrify children or get you cuffed by the cops.
  
• Bring your canned rations/Food donations and check in with your name and email address
• Grab your fliers for a cause & then shamble around ARTFEST.
• Come Back to REPLAY for a FREE rock show at 5:00pm
• Those Zombies around at Night Fall can take part in a Zombie Walk down the famous strip in East Lansing. Guaranteed to be the creepiest thing you’ve ever seen in EL.
• Most importantly, have FUN. That’s what this is all about after all.

The ruthless Nine Devil gang intercept a shipment of gold bullion near a small village and decide to kill all its inhabitants in the most gruesome ways imaginable. One of the men, Ah Tien (Lo Rei), escapes along with the women and children into the mountains where they encounter a wandering monk who teaches the nomads the secret art of Shaolin Chastity Kung Fu (Ton Zi Kung). Training complete, Ah Tien leads the baby warriors into a bizarre battle against the Nine Devils. Seventy minutes of totally insane fight action - a must see!

A coming-of-age tale with a twist, Teeth takes a novel approach towards teen sexual angst. Sunny blonde Dawn (Jess Weixler, a Meryl Streep in the making) promotes abstinence at her high school. Her mother (Vivienne Benesch) is terminally ill, her half-brother (Nip/Tuck’s John Hensley) is a tattooed sociopath, and her stepfather (Lenny von Dohlen) does what he can to keep the household together. When Dawn meets doe-eyed transfer student Tobey (Hale Appleman), her celibacy vow is put to the test. Simultaneously, she starts to realize her anatomy differs from other girls. Though Dawn’s Austin environs recall the serene suburbs of Donnie Darko–except for the ominous smokestacks behind the family’s ranch house–her secret power brings her closer in line with Carrie. It’s a particularly feminine capability. When Carrie felt threatened, she used her mind as a weapon. In Dawn’s case, a certain physical anomaly comes into play: the vagina dentata of ancient mythology (Camille Paglia, author of Sexual Personae, served as a consultant on the film). At first, Dawn has no control over the situation and, like De Palma’s anti-heroine, she’s horrified. But actor-turned-director Mitchell Lichtenstein (Ang Lee’s The Wedding Banquet), son of artist Roy Lichtenstein, ends his debut on a very different note. Along the way, there’s satiric humor, squirm-inducing gore, and a star-making turn from Weixler, recipient of a special prize at Sundance for her “jaw-dropping performance.” Teeth is neither anti-male nor anti-female–as some detractors have claimed–but it’s definitely not for the squeamish or irony-impaired. –Kathleen C.
