and they're adding more dates all the time. They've confirmed that Chicago will be getting dates soon, too.
Eureka Masters of Cinema series will be releasing the film in Jan. 2010; Criterion will be handling the R1 release, though they haven't posted the release date yet.
Here's the cover for the MoC release:
Anyone that has not had the fortune of experiencing this singular weirdo-masterpiece should definitely make a showing if the fates allow, or at least pick it up on DVD when it comes out.
Experience heaps of violent, bizarre, childish goofiness!
