An homage to mediocre movies at the Texas Theatre – The Dallas Morning News

On the first Tuesday of every month at the Texas Theatre, Tuesday Night Trash celebrates B-movies.

This month, TNT screened

Radical Jack

, an unintentionally hilarious action film starring Billy Ray Cyrus that the host of the event, Ben Jousan, described as a “

Roadhouse

rip-off.” The event always attracts a rowdy crowd, but this month, Jousan decided to fan the flames and make it more interactive with the help of guest co-host Bryan Walior (who assists with production on the horror series

The Last Drive-In With Joe Bob Briggs

).

Stuntman John Cann, whose credits include episodes of

Walker,

Texas Ranger

and

Tango &

Cash

, choreographed a barroom brawl behind the screen before the film. From there, the hosts encouraged the audience to drink and shout “radical!” during certain scenes. For good measure, they also passed out 3D glasses and screened the 3D music video for The Judds’ 1990 single “Love Can Build a Bridge” during intermission.

For the next installment on Oct. 1, Jousan plans to screen a 35 millimeter edition of the 1983 science fiction horror film

The Deadly Spawn

, provided by the G. William Jones Film and Video Collection at Southern Methodist University.
