And, of course, it’s the always-worth-considering Sci-Fi Pint and Pizza Night at the Arcata Theatre Lounge, this week screening the cinematic swords and sandals time warp Ulysses Against The Son of Hercules (1961). While we weren’t able to dig up a trailer for the film online we did come across one troubling scene (watch below, maybe) featuring, one would assume, the “deadly bird-men” promised in the ATL-provided synopsis. Dance, bird-men! —AG
