IF YOU’RE GONNA SCREAM, SCREAM WITH THE DIA DOUBLE FEATURE

This Saturday at 8 PM EST, Unkle Spooky and Mike Justice will join Bill for two wild movies. You can join them on the Groovy Doom Facebook and YouTube pages.

Up first — and this is a first! — is director Mike Justice’s The Trouble With Barry. You can tell Mike what you think of the movie live and in-person. Or at least via char. You can watch it on Tubi.

This week, I’m breaking with tradition by serving two drinks. Yes, each week we watch movies, talk about them, check out their ad campaigns and have matching cocktails.

The first is the actual cocktail that Barry enjoys throughout the movie!

Barry’s Usual

  • 1.5 oz. vodka
  • 6 oz. Fresca
  1. Pour vodka over ice.
  2. Top with Fresca and try not to kill anyone.

Now here’s the second one.

The Burned Gerbil

  • 1.5 oz. vodka
  • 1.5 oz. ginger ale
  • Splash of orange juice
  • Dust of cinnamon
  1. Mix ingredients over ice.
  2. Stir, then top with a little bit of spice.

The second movie is The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane which you can find on Tubi.

Here’s the cocktail.

The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lemonade

  • 2 oz. white rum
  • 2 oz. dark rum
  • 1 oz. lime juice
  • 1 oz. cream of coconut
  • A handful of frozen raspberries
  • 6 oz. lemonade
  1. Muddle raspberries, then shake with all liquids in a cocktail shaker.
  2. Pour over crushed ice and drop an old lady into a trap door.

I will miss everyone Saturday but I will be back next week.
