Programmed and Presented by The Abhorrent Cinema
A sexy nightclub owner, Barb Wire (Pamela Anderson Lee) moonlights as a mercenary in Steel Harbor, one of the last free zones in the now fascist United States. When scientist Cora Devonshire (Victoria Rowell) wanders into Barb's establishment, she gets roped into a top-secret government plot involving biological weapons. Soon Barb is reunited with her old flame Axel Hood (Temuera Morrison), who is now Cora's husband and a guerrilla fighter, resulting in plenty of tense action.
About the Abhorrent Cinema:
Inspired by the legacy of glamour ghouls, late-night macabre shows, and the vaudevillian roots of drive-in movies, The Abhorrent Cinema is a celebration of cinema both creepy and camp. Chicago cabaret artist and film buff Noah Grey is the ghostly host of this monthly movie screening variety show that features a different spooktacular picture each month, accompanied by an opening act of genre-inspired burlesque numbers from a roster of ghoulish guest performers.
