Shredder Orpheus with Director and Producer Q&A

Join director/writer/star Robert McGinley and prodicer Lisa Dutton for a screening of their shot-in-Seattle cult classic, Shredder Orpheus.

The Greek myth is reimagined as a post-apocalyptic skateboard rock opera in SHREDDER ORPHEUS—a low budget hallucination that drops somewhere between the music video for Devo's "Whip It," a Bones Brigade skate tape, and a surrealist art project. The story follows Orpheus (director Robert McGinley), a rock star who descends to hell in order to save his kidnapped wife (and the universe) from Satan and his hypnotic TV signals.

Filmed in Seattle and featuring a rare screen role from Steven Jesse Bernstein—the William S. Burroughs of the Pacific Northwest—SHREDDER ORPHEUS has been newly preserved by AGFA from the original film elements.

After the movie, stick around to ask the Orpheus himself, director Robert McGinley, as well as producer and local filmmaker Lisa Dutton all about their hometown production and the madness that brought this vision to light.

BTW, since you read this far, were you or anyone you know directly involved in the making of this movie? Feel free to email cHJvZ3JhbWRpcmVjdG9yIHwgY2VudHJhbC1jaW5lbWEgISBjb20= and let us know. Robert and Lisa would love to see you and maybe have you join the post-movie fun.

Please note filmmakers will only be in attendance for the Friday 6/13 7:30pm screening.
