Sept 22-28 Chuck Vincent Week: No one did it like Chuck! He’s the unsung king of Up All Night comedy, a queer director making the straightest romcoms but throwing in muscle studs and drag queens. His films explore the concept of romance from almost every angle – he was deeply passionate about love.

Directed by Chuck Vincent and written by Mark Borde and Avrumie Schnitzer, this had such a low budget that the cast and crew actually stayed at camp to save money.

Here’s the story: Camp Malibu’s director, Herman (John F. Goff using the name Jack Barnes), invites past campers to a ten-year reunion in the hopes of persuading the young adults to help save the camp. Hijinks ensue, and at least everyone is in their twenties, right? But why are they having a contest over who can poop the most?

It’s also a The Witch Who Came from the Sea reunion! John F. Goff and Virkina Flower were both in that. At least this time, he wasn’t her abusive father, and she wasn’t the younger version of his daughter.

Speaking of Virinka, her career was wild. As a child, she appeared in the aforementioned Matt Cimber film and Drive-In Massacre, as well as Mag Wheels, The Capture of Bigfoot, Beyond Evil, Terror On Tour (as the “well-endowed lady”), the end-of-times movie Early Warning, and the Leif Garrett film Longshot. She went on to be a costume designer — on the Chuck Norris kid film Top Dog and the Aaron Norris starring Overkill — as well as a set decorator on Kirdy Stevens’ adult film Playing With Fire, as a wardrobe supervisor on Frightmare, They’re Playing With Fire, Silent Night, Deadly Night, Midnight and Grounded for Life, plus being the assistant director on Island Fury. And oh yeah! She’s the daughter of George “Buck” Flower.

If you see Barbara Gold in this role as Pam and wonder, “Why do I know her?” That’s a super young Linnea Quigley.

Also look out for Brenda Fogarty (Fairy Tales, Fantasm Comes Again) and Vincent as a prospector under the name Dustin Pacino Jr.
