"Particularly bizarre, disturbing and sometimes delightful" (Time Out)
Synopsis Established in 1991, Headpress (www.headpress.com) are a publisher of international repute, responsible for the trend setting Headpress Journal (the journal of sex religion death) and books devoted to all that is strange and esoteric (or bland and immaterial) in film, literature and pop art. Now, in conjunction with cult independent producers ShashMedia (www.shashmedia.com), Headpress will take to the airwaves with six half-hour shows exploring the themes, obsessions and personalities that constitute the fun and sometimes frightening world of the underground.
Presented by a variety of B-Movie stars, including Ruby LaRocca (www.fleshforthebeast.com), Jane Scarlet (Flesh For The Beast), Dead Elvis (James Whale Show - UK) and many more... Headpress TV will take you to depths you have never been before. However, everything will be presented in the unique Headpress and ShashMedia styles. Well-written features. Fast Paced filming and editing. And a kick ass soundtrack to boot. Interviews completed in America:
