Zombies! Nudity! Blaxploitation! Must Be Thursday

It's not every day that little ol' SLC has a chance to premiere an NC-17-rated blaxploitation horror film, but Thursday just happens to be that day.

Head on down to Brewvies for an 8 p.m. screening of Black Devil Doll, and you will be treated to a flick that combines "elements from horror films such as Child's Play and blaxploitation films like Dolomite." And the hype I read promises "equal parts blood, nudity and puppets."

Sounds dreamy! Here's a synopsis of the film:

"A young, moist, buxom teen vixen finds herself hurled into an odyssey of forbidden sex and unspeakable violence after an innocent evening dabbling in the occult. What started as a simple child's game has now become a fight for her life! What is this evil that she has summoned from beyond? And why does it have a fro? What kind of horrific acts will she be subjected to? And what price will her super-hot, half-nude friends have to pay? But more importantly, how much Caucasian blood will have to be shed to stop....the BLACK DEVIL DOLL?!!"

I'll either be there or at Thirsty Thursday with the Salt Lake Bees.

Among the other options Thursday night:

- Classical-popster and PBS cash-cow Andre Rieu headlines a gig at Usana Amphitheater in West Valley City.
- White Rabbits headline at Urban Lounge.
- Telekinesis plays a show at Kilby Court.
- The Audition apparently went well; they play at Sho inside Murray Theater.
