10:00 AM : Invasion of Astro-Monster

Director : Ishirô Honda, Language : English, RunTime : 1 hr 33 min

In this vibrant Kaiju film from the Shōwa era, aliens from Planet X strike a deal with Earth to provide a cure for all disease. In exchange, they ask to borrow Godzilla and Rodan to defeat the cataclysmic three-headed monster currently terrorizing Planet X – King Ghidorah. Chock full of giant monster fights, handcrafted special effects from Eiji Tsuburaya, and a fun campy performance from Nick Adams, this sixth film in the iconic Toho franchise is a must see on the big screen. We’ll be showing this monster classic dubbed in English so the littlest monster fans in your life can get in on the fun! 

12:25 PM : The Thing From Another World

Director : Howard Hawks, Christian Nyby, Language : English, RunTime : 1 hr 27 min

Researchers at an Arctic research station discover a block of ice that harbors an alien entity. When the body is unintentionally thawed, the scientists find themselves at the mercy of this malevolent being. Drawing inspiration from the 1938 short story 'Who Goes There?', THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD played a pivotal role in launching the '50s sci-fi wave of alien terror on the big screen! This film is particularly significant as it marks Howard Hawks' sole venture into the science fiction genre and inspired one of the most acclaimed remakes in film history, The Thing (1982).

2:45 PM : Paprika

Director : Satoshi Kon, Language : Japanese (with subtitles), RunTime : 1 hr 30 min

The final film from renowned Japanese animator and manga artist Satoshi Kon (Perfect Blue, Tokyo Godfathers) is truly unique. When an experimental device that allows users to share dreams falls into the wrong hands, a scientist and her dream alter ego — a detective named Paprika - embark on a quest to apprehend the perpetrator. PAPRIKA is a surreal investigation into the realm of dreams and the complexities of the human psyche, showcasing stunning animated visuals and a narrative that significantly inspired Christopher Nolan’s Inception. In Japanese w/ subtitles. Rated R.

7:00 PM : Terminator 2: Judgment Day

Director : James Cameron, Language : English, RunTime : 2 hr 17 min

A landmark film for the sci-fi and action film genres, TERMINATOR 2 is widely regarded as one of the best sequels ever made! Set eleven years after the events of the original film, Sarah Connor finds herself in an institution while her rebellious teenage son, John, destined to lead the human resistance, is hunted by two Terminators. One is an advanced liquid metal entity known as the T-1000, while the other is a specter from Sarah's past who becomes an unlikely ally. T2 features groundbreaking CGI effects, dazzling action sequences, and a heartfelt story about what it means to be human. Rated R.

In anticipation of the much-awaited remake to be released later this year, we present this underrated sci-fi gem based on a novel by Stephen King (written under the pseudonym Richard Bachman).

Arnold Schwarzenegger stars as a convict forced to participate in a TV game show that pits prisoners against eccentric adversaries in a bid for their freedom. This action romp is packed with memorable one-liners and bloody mayhem! Rated R.
