Let's make this birthday one to remember.

82 years old (Born on August 31, 1942)

Happy Birthday, Mike Kuchar! May your day be as delightfully campy and outrageously entertaining as "Sins of the Fleshapoids." Your films have taught us that creativity doesn't need a big budget—just plenty of glitter, guts, and gusto. You've proven time after time that cinematic genius thrives best in underground brilliance.

Here's to another year filled with quirky characters, unforgettable scenes—and perhaps even more robots falling hopelessly in love. Keep inspiring filmmakers everywhere to embrace their inner weirdness; because let's face it: nobody does low-budget charm quite like you do. Cheers to many more years behind (and beyond) the camera!
