Texas psychedelic legend Roky Erickson, lead singer of the 13th Floor Elevators and subject of the acclaimed documentary "You're Gonna Miss Me" and the new Process book "Eye Mind: The Saga of Roky Erickson and The 13th Floor Elevators, The Pioneers of Psychedelic Sound," knows a thing or two about horror stories—as writer of classic spook-rock songs like "Stand for the Fire Demon," "I Think of Demons," "Don't Shake Me Lucifer," and the aforementioned "Creature with the Atom Brain". Erickson will be on hand to introduce this feverish 50's B-picture, his favorite horror film. Think of it as "The Godfather" meets "Dr. Strangelove" in Frankenstein's castle: an exiled American gangster bent on revenge hires a maniacal ex-Nazi scientist to create radio-controlled killer zombies. Soon, the police, the army and the kitchen sink show up to battle it out in a climax your nightmares will take notes from. Roky will be present after the screening with "Eye Mind" author Paul Drummond to sign copies of the book.
