KIM FOWLEY STATEMENT: "PINK CEMENT IS NOT PINK FLAMINGOS" PINK CEMENT is the next step in cinema after Barfly and the last Frankenstein movie..PINK CEMENT is Hard Core/Fun-Filled/Left of Center/ Fright Night in the Day Light.. PINK CEMENT is the Disturbing Kim Fowley movie/creative feature for the Mutants of the Midway..for the Bored, Tormented, and the Over-heated - filmed on location in Neon Babylon, Hollywood, USA, Beverly Hills, and Siberia-with-Sand-Dunes. Devilish dialogue, moronic monologue and a terrifying travelogue set the mood for the interlude of the crude, the nude, the rude, and the sexual multitudes. PINK CEMENT stars Kim Fowley and soon-to-be-announced Devil Dolls, Drunken Sailors, Tinseltown Tailors, and Modern Mannequins. PINK CEMENT is currently @ the start of editing process in the depths of the West San Fernando Valley... Clint M., born in Houston, educated in Tokyo and Nashville, is the Editor of this Super Expensive Product which features many cameras and a tech support crew the size of a small country and Special EFX that make The Creation of the Universe seem like a home movie.
Clint M. avoided film school by absorbing how Nature was conceived and edited by a Higher Force during his exploratory stints in Thailand (ex-Siam), Indonesia, and Australia. Also in the Editing Room with Clint and Kim is Theresa Kereakes, a PINK CEMENT co-director, camera goddess and Editorial Dominatrix.
Theresa also has voice over contributions in the French language and in California English. Theresa invokes the memories of Hedda Hopper, Dorothy Parker and Louella O. Parsons. The Music of PINK CEMENT is from such music hot spots as London, Nashville, Glasgow, Darlington UK, Loma Linda, CA, Memphis, Louisiana, Tucson, Vienna, Liverpool and Silverlake. The PINK CEMENT soundtrack promises to be one of this decade's Biggest Blockbusters! The PINK CEMENT Merchandising Campaign is up and running.

KIM FOWLEY CO-STARS WITH HOLLYWOOD PERFORMANCE ARTIST ABBY TRAVIS IN SENSATIONAL / CONTROVERSIAL PODCAST!!
Kim Fowley has been putting finishing touches on his future Underground Film classic, "Pink Cement." Recent scenes featured Lenora Claire of Frontier Magazine, Adrianna of Alien Showgirls, and Hollywood Performance Artist Abby Travis.
Abby invited Kim to guest on her podcast of September 24, 2006.
The results have been electrifying. But @ the same time, certain conservative elements of the USA music scene have yelled, "Disgusting, ridiculous and unnecessary." YOU BE THE JUDGE... See for yourself! Abby Travis podcast Hipsters, scenemakers from West Coast Babylon to Northeast England have hollered "genius!" (ie: Morley from Dramarama) October 12, 06 is the newsstand date of the Bizarre Magazine (UK) 4-page feature on Kim. The article promises to be BOTH outrageous and controversial in content and presentation. MORE NEWS! Spanish subtitles have been added to Kim's movie about Small Town USA, Jukebox California. The last weekend in October in Barcelona where the movie is being shown, promises to be a festival highlight. (refer to previous blogs for more details) Kim's co-production with Graeme Robinson (Circulation Sound Recordings/Darlington UK) and Maria Baglien (Lo-Fi Studios/Loma Linda, CA) of Frogma begins November 24, 06. Guest musicians feature Chris Darrow (Leonard Cohen, James Taylor, Ben Harper, Kaleidoscope), John York (Byrds, circa Easy Rider) and Patrick Brayer (Allison Kraus, Reba McIntire). Pat currently has a song on the latest Alan Jackson album.
Frogma are a modern variation / version of Fairport Convention on a Steel Eye Span level. Think 21st Century versions of Sandy Denny and Mandy Pryor flanking a more prolific Peter Yarrow. Frogma hail from Newcastle, UK and are a joy to behold.. their vocal blend is astonishing. Kim reminds you that his Folk Music credits include: co-writing stints with Cat Stevens, The Seekers, The Byrds; songs covered by Warren Zevon, Kris Kristofferson, Flying Burrito Brothers; and background vocals with Gram Parsons (GP) and Leo Kottke (singing as "The Jukebox Phantom" on Kottke's debut album, "Mud Lark.")
