SHRIEK: LIFEFORCE Heckle Night + Happy Hour

Join us in September for Tobe Hooper's LIFEFORCE! Hooper, the recently departed (RIP) director of POLTERGEIST and THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE brings us a space-vampire-butthole-booby-bonanza with Patrick Stewart and a cast of scenery-eating character actors! Come for the happy hour and heckles, stay for the community conversation afterward. If you love ALIEN but wish it were stupider with more nudity, you'll probably enjoy this one.

Triggers/content: physical and sexual abuse, gore, nudity

Enjoy Naked City Brewery's Sunday happy hour drink specials while we laugh and cringe. Funniest comment gets a prize!

Doors open at 6:30 and opening talk and film starts at 7:00
