FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
New York, N.Y., February 14, 2017- Greetings from Tromaville!
"It's Chris Morris meets The Mighty Boosh!" exclaims Lloyd Kaufman, president of Troma Entertainment, Inc. and creator of
The Toxic Avenger
, as he boards a flight to London to attend the World Premiere of
Essex Spacebin
at The Prince Charles Cinema on Saturday, February 18th, 2017, it was announced today by Levi White, Head of Public Relations at Troma Entertainment, Inc.
Essex Spacebin
, a hilarious Brit Sci-fi/Comedy from filmmakers David Hollinshead and Phil Thompson, was acquired by Troma Entertainment in 2016, and the independent film company is thrilled to see the film's World Premiere taking place at such a prestigious theater as the Prince Charles Cinema. Trailer found here: Essex Spacebin Trailer
Essex Spacebin is available for rent and purchase on Amazon Prime!
Follow the adventures of the lovable Lorraine Willy, a middle-aged woman who has suffered a life of mental illness. Lorraine believes she has been infused by God with a divine purpose that only she (and an Intergalactic Rasta named Hogan) can fathom. She begins her journey looking for a "star key" - which she believes can help her access a parallel world known as the 7th Realm where she hopes to meet the maker.
Seeking to conquer time and space with help from her friends & family, a Nissan Skyline and a PDF of Amen-Ra's original Essex Pyramid construction specs, will Lorraine herald the existence of a portal to another world?
 
Essex Spacebin
stars Lorraine Malby, Caryl Griffith and Joerg Stadle
The film has already met with rave reviews from critics such as Andrew Pollard from
StarburstMagazine.com who claims
Essex Spacebin
is a "hugely enjoyable romp through a landscape that feels quintessentially British yet completely otherworldly" and YouTube comedic sensation Cassetteboy told Hollinshead and Thompson, "The ending is a triumph, absolutely perfect and incredibly funny. You've created something very very strange, and completely unique."
A unique film indeed as Essex Spacebin is a one of a kind by today's standards, not only is it gut-bustingly funny, but it is also a technical achievement as Hollinshead and Thompson shot the entirety of the film on 35mm; a medium that is as rare as it is distinguished.
In addition to Essex Spacebin's World Premiere, Troma fans will be treated to a screening of the Tromasterpiece Tromeo & Juliet. This film that boldly satirizes the incestuous nature of William Shakespeare's original play, was directed by Troma's own Lloyd Kaufman and written by Kaufman and Guardian's of the Galaxy director James Gunn.
Mr. Kaufman may or may not be dressed as The Queen of England sporting two Pembroke Welsh Corgis while giving insights into filmmaking and independent art live on stage. As always, Mr. Kaufman will be taking pictures and doing signings for FREE!
A Q&A will be held with the Queen of Tromaville, Lloyd Kaufman
