Hi there! Every year on my birthday, I like to get a big crowd of people together to watch a double-feature on 35mm. We’ve done this for several years now, showing prints of The Empire Strikes BackIndiana Jones & The Temple of DoomMac & MeNight of the Comet, and yes, I’m still living down the shame from screening Teen Wolf Too last year. – ERIC VEILLETTE

“With more lives than a black cat, the Prince of Hell is back!” This year’s first film, Hellraiser III: Hell on Earth, was the first Hellraiser flick I ever rented in a video store back in the day (along with an Ozzy music video compilation, which we will not be showing), so I’m excited to finally see this goofy, tonal departure-from-the-first-two-films on the big screen. If you like your Hellraiser movies to feature lots of Cenobites adorning cutting edge 1992 technology and mondo Shakespearean dialogue for Pinhead, boy oh boy have I got a movie for you.

About the second feature: The Blair Witch Project (1999)

Three film students vanish after traveling into a Maryland forest to film a documentary on the local Blair Witch legend, leaving only their footage behind.

Director: Anthony Hickox
Cast: Doug Bradley, Terry Farrell, lots of Cenobites

As always, the features will be preceded and interspersed by trailers and shorts, all on celluloid (new stuff I’ve collected recently)!
There will be prizes, probably a custom cocktail called the Lament Configuration? And only $12 bucks for two movies? Cheap!
