Umberto 'Pieces' Live Score Event

Grindhouse in conjunction with Death Waltz Recording Company presents UMBERTO – Pieces Live Re-Score

In 2012 Matt Hill (Umberto) was commissioned by the Glasgow Film Festival to re-score the 1982 splatter film PIECES and perform it live. The re-score was eventually released on vinyl and CD with the title The Night Has A Thousand Screams and has only ever been performed again at Beyond Fest in 2013...

UNTIL NOW! To celebrate Grindhouse releasing PIECES on Blu-ray, we are stoked to bring Matt out to MondoCon to perform his re-score to PIECES for one final time. If you haven't seen the film, you're in for a treat. PIECES is one of the most outrageous and legendary of all the low budget 80's splatter films; it's over the top in every department, each scene more ridiculous than the last. To see it with a crowd is the best way to truly experience it. Every attendee at the screening will receive a FREE exclusive color way of a new Umberto 7' due on the Death Waltz jukebox series featuring two brand new unreleased tracks. We'll also have copies of the Rock Action LP. Matt will be signing after the performance.

Toy Masters Documentary (Free Daytime Screening)

When two friends attempt to discover who created their favorite childhood action figure, they end up uncovering a heated battle for credit that's lasted 30 years and is filled with more colorful characters than any toy store aisle. Filmmakers Roger Lay, Jr. and Corey Landis set out to document the origin of He-Man–the central character in a billion-dollar multi-media franchise–and along the way, they begin to realize that the truth may not be as simple as they'd hoped. Join them as they go from interview to interview of conflicting stories about how it all began–and try to figure out who's lying and who's telling the truth–in this fun, informative doc that plays like the 'King Of Kong' of the toy world.

Live mural painting by Sam Wolfe Connelly

Sam Wolfe Connelly will be creating a live mural throughout MondoCon to give a fascinating look into the artistic process!
