Dinosaur Valley Girls

Starring: Jeff Rector, William Marshall, Griffin Drew, Harrison Ray, Karen Black, Denise Ames

Chain-smoking Hollywood action movie star Tony Markham is zapped back in time via a magic artifact to a prehistoric world of flesh-hungry dinosaurs, angry cavemen, and a tribe of exotic, love-starved cavegirls. He must use his modern-day machismo and best karate moves to survive the onslaught of Jurassic terrors while wooing the literal cavegirl of his dreams, Hea-Thor.

Produced, written and directed by fan film pioneer, Marvel Comics scribe and Star Wars novelist Don Glut, Dinosaur Valley Girls playfully and skillfully dives headfirst into the subject matter, including creating a completely new language for the titlular tarts. What could have easily been just a typical late-night slot-filler on Skinemax becomes an epic world-building adventure, complete with stop motion dinosaurs, original music numbers, off-the-wall cameos and more dad jokes than you can shake an Allosaurus bone at.

Aelita, Queen of Mars

Starring: Nikolai Tseretelli, Yulia Solntseva, Valentina Kuindzhi, Igor Ilyinsky, Nikolai Batalov

Join us for the legendary science-fiction film Aelita, Queen of Mars, with a live score from The Flushing Remonstrance, NYC’s premier group devoted to live film accompaniment.

Said to be the first full-length science fiction movie ever made, Aelita is a fantastic adventure about Los, an engineer living in Moscow, who dreams of Aelita, the Queen of Mars, and builds a spaceship to take him to her. They fall in love, but Los soon finds himself embroiled in a proletarian uprising to establish socialism on the red planet. Influenced by the Russian avant-garde constructivist movement, the bold artistry of Aelita’s Martian costumes and sets contributed enormously to the science fiction look as we know it. The Flushing Remonstrance celebrate the centennial of this major work of early futuristic cinema by bringing it to life with their all-new live score.

A Serious Man

Larry seeks advice from three different rabbis, but whether anyone can help him overcome his many afflictions remains to be seen.

UHF

Starring: ‘Weird Al’ Yankovic, Victoria Jackson, Kevin McCarthy, Michael Richards

Part of our recipe book series NITEHAWK CINEMA PRESENTS. Show your ticket at the bar after the movie to buy a copy of the book for only $20!

George Newman (Yankovic) is a man of vision. He can’t hold down a job to save his life, but, still, he’s a man of vision. After daydreaming his way out of a gig flipping burgers, George’s uncle bequeaths the young dreamer the reins of the struggling UHF station, Channel 62. Dead last in the ratings and desperate for programming, George starts letting every flight of fancy and weirdo onto the airwaves, everything from “Conan the Librarian” to “Stanley Spadowski’s Clubhouse,” a kids’ show hosted by a borderline nutcase (Michael Richards) who shoots children in the face with a firehouse (Don’t worry, they love it). Naturally, Channel 62 becomes a ratings sensation — which doesn’t sit well with the corporate grease-balls over at Channel 8 who sic the FCC on George and his merry band.
