Black Ocean Presents
J. CANNIBAL’S FEAST OF FLESH
featuring the insane cult classic WILD ZERO
plus special guests BLACK CAT BURLESQUE
with live music by BEWARE!
Friday April 13 / Midnight / $10
Real-life undertaker and long time zombie fanatic
J. Cannibal—dubbed the King of Horror Burlesque—presents a gruesome banquet of midnight mayhem!
This frightful night of fun kicks off with the beastly beats of
BEWARE!. Drenched in blood and ink, these rock city veterans resurrect old school punk and hardcore with their thirty-second-thrash anthems reminiscent of the Misfits, Suicidal Tendencies and Black Flag. Following their set will be a bevy of grotesque burlesque courtesy of the infamous horror troupe,
Black Cat Burlesque. Dedicated to putting the BUMP back into the night, Black Cat Burlesque has been raising pulses, the dead and whole lot of hell since 2003. The bad seeds of Boston Burlesque, this scream team mines the depths of their twisted psyches—blending striptease thrills and spookshow chills to push the boundaries of the art form and explore the dark, cobwebbed corners of neo-cabaret!
For the night’s feature, Mr. Cannibal has hand-picked one of his all-time favorite zombie films, the rock n’ roll n’ UFO crazed Japanese import, WILD ZERO. Starring legendary Japanese scuzz-rockers Guitar Wolf, WILD ZERO takes you on a ride so insane, it’s spawned its own drinking game! Packed with exploding heads, shooting flames, and never-ending cries of “ROCK N ROLLL!” you can’t afford your chance to miss this on the big screen!
Free gory goodie bags will be handed out to all, and J. Cannibal will be awarding a number of prizes for the best zombie costumes from New England Comics, Horror Business, Hollywood Express, and The Million Year Picnic, plus several passes to see highly-anticipated movie, GRINDHOUSE. If all this ghoulish glory has whet your appetite for freaky films, Boston-area residents can also trek down to their local branch of Hollywood Express and browse J. Cannibal’s very own “picks” section, where they can check out some of his favorite horror movies of all time.
Brought to you by the creative minds of Black Ocean, this will be a show of insanity from beyond the grave that you don’t want to miss!

A thick slab of praise for J. Cannibal and his Feast of Flesh:
“J. Cannibal, the ‘King of Horror Burlesque.’” —Boston's Weekly Dig
“J. Cannibal's Feast of Flesh, led by real-life undertaker and zombie lover J. Cannibal, is a celebration of all things terrifying.” —The Improper Bostonian
“Think Rocky Horror Picture Show with less androgyny and more anthropophagy.” —The Onion
“[J.Cannibal] is the sort of guy people brag about knowing. After all, he sounds like an exotic, epic character: poet, undertaker, horror-burlesque king, small-press publisher, show promoter, fake-blood engineer.” —The Boston Phoenix
