Good Vibrations 3rd Annual Amateur Erotic Film Festival is here!
By Allison • Oct 29th, 2008 • Category: Blog, Events, Film FestIf you’re in San Francisco and love kinky film, then there’s no better place to be tomorrow night than at the Castro Theatre for Good Vibration’s Third Annual Amateur Erotic Film Festival, sponsored by Tantus Toys and Digital Playground films. This year we’ve gone bi-coastal, accepting entries from both California and Massachusetts for one hot spanking night of freaky and fabulous amateur films you won’t see anywhere else. The infmous Peaches Christ of Midnight Mass fame will be hosting this year’s festivities alongside a few of her Drag Queen diva friends who will be entertaining the crowd between films with their hilarious thoughts on each piece.
After three years of putting on this festival you never can tell what kinds of films people are going to send in and it’s always a treat to see just how creative these aspiring filmmakers can be in ten minutes or less. Without giving away too many spoilers, I can say that there are a few pretty amazing firsts this year including our first ever animated selection and one fantastic bicycle you won’t want to miss. To find out the rest you need to join us for the party of the year at San Francisco’s historic Castro Theatre, this Thursday, Oct 30th!
And it wouldn’t be a Good Vibrations event if we weren’t ready to party. This year’s festival theme is the 1970s Sherman Oaks Porn Scene, so dust off that polyesther, put on your finest disco threads and hustle on over to our VIP Pre-Party, starting at 7pm on the Mezzanine of the Castro Theatre. For only $10 you can indulge with Dj Wrong? of The Magnificent 7 as he spins the funk, enjoy a glass of Roshambo wine or beer from the open bar, spin the “Wheel of Pleasure” for free prizes including special give-aways from our co-presenters Tantus Toys and Digital Playground films, and get your groove on with dancers from The Lusty Lady, San Francisco’s finest peep show.
Tickets to the show are only $10 and available in advance at all of Good Vibration’s retail locations. Tickets will also be available the night of the show at the Castro Theatre for $12, with entry to the VIP Pre-Party and open bar only $10 more! Tickets for the VIP Pre-Party are only available for purchase at the Castro Theatre the night of the show.
The VIP Pre-Party begins at 7PM and the screening starts at 8! So grab your sweetie and join us at the Castro Theatre, 429 Castro Street in San Francisco, this Thursday, Oct. 30th.
Whether you’re a film fan, a porn purveyor, or a true artist, there’ something for everyone at GV’s 3rd Annual Amateur Erotic Film Festival.
