Flux Studios and Metro Gallery are joining forces with a show called Sinerama: That’s Exploitation!

At Flux, we’ll be exhibiting a wild, rare collection of outrageous exploitation movie posters and will be screening trailers and the films of San Francisco drag legend, Peaches Christ, all day!

And at Metro Gallery on Sunday 8pm, we will be screening the 70s-style exploitation wonder “Starrbooty” starring international drag legends RuPaul and Lady Bunny! (Do you see a trend here??) We are also proud to be showing never before seen footage and trailers from the upcoming smut-exploitation epic, “Black Devil Doll”. I HAVE A FEW VERY SCARCE 1-SHEET POSTERS TO GIVEAWAY for “Black Devil Doll”!
