DESCRIPTION:Sunday, 11/15\n\nStingray Sam\n\nMovies on a Big Screen at The Guild 
 Theater\n2828 35th St, Sacramento\n7:30 PM\nAdmission: $5.00\n\nCory 
 McAbee's follow-up to the cult favorite, "The American Astronaut!"  An all 
 new scifi musical western!!\n\nA serialized film in six episodes.  The 
 official synopsis: "A dangerous mission reunites Stingray Sam with his long 
 lost accomplice, The Quasar Kid. Follow these two space-convicts as they 
 earn their freedom in exchange for the rescue of a young girl who is being 
 held captive by the genetically designed figurehead of a very wealthy 
 planet."  Of course, that doesn't take into account the pregnant men.  Or 
 the corporate mascot rehab program.  Or the tiny robot.  Or the amazing 
 music by McAbee's band, American Astronaut (formerly, Billy Nayer Show).  
 Starring Cory McAbee as Stingray Sam and featuring David Hyde Pierce (TV's 
 "Frasier) as The Narrator, and McAbee's 5 year old daughter, Willa Vy 
 McAbee.\n\n"'Stingray Sam' leaves one begging for more... think 'The 
 Searchers' meets 'Eraserhead.'" - Variety\n\n"Few films have me chuckling 
 from beginning till end, but this one managed to do it. Well, except when I 
 was laughing.  Don't be deceived by its cheap looks or stunning 
 black-and-white-o-vision, Cory McAbee put more creativity and wit in his 
 film than I've seen in ten movies twice its length and a hundred times its 
 budget." - Twitch Film\n\n"[Stingray Sam is] cool. It's committed to its 
 style. It's self-aware without being self-assured. It's a film you want to 
 bring your new love interest too, because it'll show him or her that you 
 feel comfortable having your postmodernism smothered in hilariousness. 
 It'll prove to this new love in your life that not only can the avant-garde 
 disturb filmic \nconventions, but also be kind-hearted and sweet, 
 subversive yet caring and generous. This is not, however, some "Ice Storm" 
 or "Squid and the Whale" coming-of-age whinery, this is the wild galactic 
 frickin' West.  Bring your gun.  Bring your dancin' boots." -
