Calling all vidiots: We’re giving away vinyl copies of the Joysticks soundtrack

You’ve probably seen the movie Joysticks and don’t even realize it, sandwiched in between Oddballs and a “skisploitation” movie on USA Up All Night. Joysticks, released in 1983, transfers the “snobs vs. slobs” formula to the world of video games as an evil Joe Don Baker (the best kind of Joe Don Baker) attempts to shut down the most popular arcade in town. Of course, the arcade’s owner, Jefferson Bailey, and his team of misfits aren’t going to let that happen without a fight. There’s plenty of nudity to go around, and the climatic battle between good and evil takes place on an oversized Super PacMan machine. The film’s soundtrack, composed by Ray Knehnetsky and performed by Legion, has never been released for public consumption, but thanks to Eczema Records, that’s about to change. And you lucky A.V. Club readers have a chance to win an advance copy.
