Ever wanted to produce a top flight box office juggernaut?  Have a thing for hideously deformed monster heroes of superhuman size and strength?  Are you a nerdy old Jew with a flamboyant taste in bowties?

 If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then you're likely a part of the Troma Army.  And you're in luck, because Troma Studio's co-founder and creator of the Toxic Avenger himself, Lloyd Kaufman will be making a personal appearance in NYC.  On November 17th at the Drama Book Shop, Lloyd will be discussing his new book, PRODUCE YOUR OWN DAMN MOVIE, the third in his "Own Damn Movie" series. 

My buddy X and I went last April Fool's Day to his personal appearance at the Strand, where Lloyd was selling his DIRECT YOUR OWN DAMN MOVIE, and I can say this:  Lloyd may seem offbeat, but he is a wealth of information when it comes to moviemaking, as he's thrived for the last 35 years at it.  If you're interested in filmmaking, or just want to meet Uncle Lloyd, this is worth checking out.
