The Ghastly Love of Johnny X
A truly mad concoction blending 1950s juvenile delinquents scifi melodrama songanddance and a touch of horror everything in just the right combination to create an engaging big screen spectacle This curious and curiously entertaining story involves one Jonathan Xavier and his devoted misfit gang who incidentally have been exiled to Earth from the far reaches of outer space Johnnys former girlfriend Bliss has left him and stolen his Resurrection Suit a cosmic mindbending uniform that gives the owner power over others Along the way there will be several highly stylized musical numbers lots of genuinely humorous dialogue and a wacky plottwist or two all beautifully captured on the very last of Kodaks blackandwhite PlusX film stock
