The Decline of Western Civilization Part II: The Metal Years
(12:30am, Sundance Channel)
Man, Sundance is on some sort of roll showing these films that aren't available on dvd. This one goes for $40-$50 on Ebay but evidently it's coming to dvd soon. And just look how cheezy and ridiculous Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley act and look... I am embarassed to admit that I saw them live entirely too many times in the 80's. SANS MAKEUP. And how could I not notice that obvious wig on Gene's head? Oh, you also get Alice Cooper, Lizzy Borden, Poison, Aerosmith, Ozzy Osbourne, Vixen, Motorhead, Megadeth and more!

Lipstick & Dynamite, Piss & Vinegar: The First Ladies of Wrestling
(6:40am, Starz Cinema)
I missed this one at the Maryland Film Festival and it's played at quite a few fests in the U.S. and Canada. I understand that a lot of these old ladies cuss and tell you how it was during the glory days of wrestling. One grandma hid a spoon in her bra so she could gouge out the eyes of opponents. Crazy shit like that. I am not waking up at 6.40 to watch this but I will certainly have a fine cup of Joe in one hand and my Tivo remote in the other checking this doc out!
