by Roslyn Barrutia KTSW Other Side Drive This week, I thought I would introduce “Safety Not Guaranteed.” This movie was screened back in 2012 at the Sundance Film Festival. It won the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award, which recognizes outstanding screenwriting. “Safety Not Guaranteed” stars Audrey Plaza, who you might recognize as April from the T-V series “Parks and Rec.” Other familiar faces include Jack Johnson, who plays Nick Miller in […]
by Roslyn Barrutia KTSW Other Side Drive When you’re in college, you always get asked the same questions, what are you going to do after you graduate?, Any plans?, Any jobs lined up? I don’t know about you but those questions stress me out to the max and I’m only in my 20’s. Well, in The Giant Mechanical Man, there are two 30 something-year-old people who are lost, trying to figure […]
by Ace McIntyre KTSW Other Side Drive Munchies is a 1987 flick directed by Tina Hirsch, the editor of a suspiciously similar movie 3 years before called Gremlims. While this movie seems to have all the things it needs to be a cult classic, it’s mostly forgettable and boring. The movie follows Paul, an aspiring comedian longing to move to LA . When he and his archeologist alien conspirator dad found […]
by Ace McIntyre KTSW Other Side Drive Cheerleader Ninjas is a movie from 2003 that looks like an early 90’s film student project. Directed by Kevin Campbell and a special appearance by Kira Reed, this movie tries to be cheesy tongue-in-cheek fun similar to Toxic Avenger but fails miserably. It starts as some women called the Catholic Mothers with too Much Time on their Hands watch a PSA about homosexuality on […]
by Ace McIntyre KTSW Other Side Drive I’m here to inform you about unbelievably bad movies that you never knew existed, with problems ranging from bad acting to non-existent sound design, these things are bottom of the barrel Rock n Roll nightmare is a dumb horror flick directed by the late John Fasano and released in 1987, you know, the year that also gave us Robocop, the Untouchables, and Princess Bride […]
Town Hall Devils were in our studio talking about their newest music and their influences for their music. They also played a song called "Kick It Around" off of their new five track EP "Ouroboros Blues." It's got a bit of a bluegrass feel on top of the classic rock & roll sound and screeching guitar riffs. This is a very talented group of individuals who produced all of […]
Edison Chair recently stopped by our studio to play some live tunes off their new EP for us! They played "You and I" and "I'm Leaving You." Bringing a nice indie/folk feel with a bit of rock and roll influence, Edison Chair really knows how to throw down. They also answered some interesting questions like where they got their name from. Sound familiar? Check out the in-studio and see if […]
Straight out of Seattle, Washington, Craft Spells graced us here at KTSW with their presence. This is their first trip to Texas since playing SXSW in 2012, so we were happy to give them a warm welcome back. The band was started by Justin Vallesteros and has now been playing with this new line-up for a year. I had never sat down and listened to these guys before they came […]
San Marcos hometown heroes The Real Hands stopped by the studio to chat and play some new tunes off of their soon to be released LP called "Get Real." These guys have a nice laid back sound that really represents the spirit of San Marcos well. They start off with "Catch Ya on the Flipside" which is a nice acoustic jam about the beautiful outdoors. They also played new a […]
