UNCLE NICK is the story of a family Christmas gone wrong.

Lewd, drunken Uncle Nick (Brian Posehn from Mr. Show and The Sarah Silverman Program) stumbles his way through his brother’s cookie cutter-family’s annual Christmas gathering in the hopes of scoring with a super-hot party guest. But the arrival of his equally crass sister coupled with Nick’s liquor-fueled faux pas cause family secrets to bubble to the surface that might spell disaster for the whole clan before the night is over. Interwoven with the tale of the 1974 Ten Cent Beer Night riot that overtook a Cleveland Indians baseball game, both stories chronicle an evening of alcohol, anger, and heartbreak.

Executive Produced by Errol Morris and directed by former Attack of the Show writer Chris Kasick.

Look back on over 30 years of Ralph McDaniels’ Video Music Box. Featuring rare and unseen live-footage of Nas, Notorious BIG, Kool Moe Dee, Run DMC, Boogie Down Productions, Jay Z, Wu Tang Clan, and many more. Ralph will also be presenting his top 5 hip hop music videos of all time.

After a provocative Christmas party hosted by the wealthy and unconventional Victor Ziegler, Dr. Bill Hartford and his wife Alice (played by at-the-time real-life couple Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman) set sail on a psychosexual journey caught between reality and illusion, jealousy and obsession. When Alice admits to have sexual fantasies about a man she met, Bill becomes hell bent on having an illicit encounter but after he sneaks into a secret society sex party, he quickly discovers he’s in way over his head. With its intimate dialogue and sweepingly vibrant scenes, Eyes Wide Shut is a befitting finale to Kubrick’s stunning cinematic legacy.

Add to that a colorful family and an intriguing new visitor, she’s about to kick off the holiday season with a bang. Everything will be alright if they can all duck the flying turkeys!

Nitehawk presents two special midnite screenings of the once lost DANGEROUS MEN!

Dangerous Men has many characters…like Mina whose life is shattered when two bikers with rape on their minds attack and kill Daniel, her fiancé. Driven by grief, she embarks on a killing rampage, wreaking vengeance upon all the menthat she seductively lures into her trap. In her twisted world, cops and killers are all the same – David, Daniel’s brother, is a cop who relentlessly pursues the killers, while facing a nest of drug dealers, followed by the FBI and the police SWAT team, also in hot pursuit. Mina, a victim of violence, carrying a twisted obsession for justice, is caught between opposing forces in a world of dangerous men.

Two gay men (Sebastián Silva, Tunde Adebimpe) and a nurse (Kristen Wiig) contend with nosy neighbors while trying to conceive a baby.

A Brooklyn couple, Freddy and his boyfriend Mo, who are trying to have a baby with the help of their best friend, Polly but their plans are disrupted by growing harassment from a menacing neighborhood local known as ‘The Bishop’. As their clashes become increasingly aggressive, it is only a matter of time before someone gets hurt.

Famed social psychologist Stanley Milgram, in 1961 conducted a series of radical behavior experiments that tested ordinary humans willingness to obey authority.

Yale University, 1961. Stanley Milgram (Peter Sarsgaard) designs a psychology experiment that remains relevant to this day, in which people think they’re delivering painful electric shocks to an affable stranger (Jim Gaffigan) strapped into a chair in another room. Disregarding his pleas for mercy, the majority of subjects do not stop the experiment, administering what they think are near-fatal electric shocks, simply because they’ve been told to. With Nazi Adolf Eichmann’s trial airing in living rooms across America, Milgram’s exploration of authority and conformity strikes a nerve in popular culture and the scientific community. Celebrated in some circles, he is also accused of being a deceptive, manipulative monster. His wife Sasha (Winona Ryder) anchors him through it all. EXPERIMENTER invites us inside Milgram’s whirring mind in this bracing portrait of a brilliant man whose conscience and creative spirit continue to be resonant, poignant, and inspirational.
