Andy's Di$count $inema #6: TERMINAL USA! Asian-American Punk Cult Retrospective
Schedule
Wed Jul 28 2021 at 08:50 pm
Location
Blue Starlite Mini Urban Drive-In | Austin, TX
The Blue Starlite's hit series returns with the criminally underseen satirical masterpiece TERMINAL USA by prolific Hawaiian punk prodigy Jon Moritsugu. Like an Asian-American John Waters, his gloriously trashy 16mm ode to a dysfunctional immigrant family's struggle to fit in remains as relevant and shocking as when it was beamed into the homes of unsuspecting PBS viewers, and quickly pulled, upon its original '93 debut. Minari, this ain't: gunplay, skinheads, mystery drugs & phone sex make for a sitcom spoof like no other that obliterates every stereotype in its trigger-happy comedic crosshairs. It's a visionary gem ripe for rediscovery in these hate-filled times by a singular voice from the American underground, PLUS each ticket comes with the new issue of DRIVE-IN ASYLUM ZINE, featuring an interview with Moritsugu by Andy Ray.
