Popatopolis Wins the Golden Cob Award!

Popatopolis is honored to accept its lumpy rod of an award for Best B Movie Documentary. It's not just your average corn-on-the-cob at the local grocery. We're talking about one of the weirdest awards you could ever claim to have won: the Golden Cob Award!

The Golden Cob Awards are handed out every year at the B Movie Celebration in Franklin, Indiana, recognizing the best in B movies. The 4th annual B Movie Celebration begins September 24th through the 26th, and awards will be given on the 25th.

Maybe Popatopolis will bring home an answer as to why they call it the "Full Brazilian."

Double Feature at the Egyptian Theater in Hollywood

Egyptian Theater - Hollywood, CA - May 27, 2010 @ 7:30pm

Returning to where B-movies first began, Popatopolis will strut its stuff on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame as part of a double-feature celebrating director Jim Wynorski. There will be a Q&A with actresses Julie Strain, Antonia Dorian, and Monique Parent, as well as Director Clay Westervelt, and the man himself, Jim Wynorski. Be sure to stick around after the Q&A for the second feature, The Return of Swamp Thing, starring Heather Locklear.

This exciting evening represents the official DVD release of Popatopolis, complete with a DVD release party, including posters and disc signings and photos with the film's stars. This is all happening in Hollywood at the American Cinematheque's magnificent and historical Egyptian Theater. Let’s just hope Jim doesn’t get an idea to make “The Mammary Returns” at the end of the night.

•Tickets to this event are available here on Fandango.
