You will want to see the Psychotronix- for the history, for the hysteria, for the histrionics. You'll laugh and wonder how it was that this corner of culture could ever have escaped your attention. 
See the shocking, eye-staggering truth, the follies and foibles, the catchy tunes, and the tidal waves of terror that are all part of the KFJC Psychotronix Film Festival.

information and play to win points.  Since Max was caught cheating last year, an
impartial judge, Hemroid the Leader, will join. What's the prize? Pasta? A bowl of
crispy cereal? Tune in and find out.
