The Black Cat House's October movie night is here to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and we're all outta bubblegum!
We'll be showing the 1988 sci-fi/horror classic They Live, directed by the great John Carpenter. The film stars WWE Hall-of-Famer "Rowdy" Roddy Piper as a drifter who gets a special pair of sunglasses that allows him to see through the propaganda and realize that the Earth has been invaded by greedy capitalist aliens! He must then seek allies and find ways to fight back. It may be cheesy in places, but it's also a much-loved action classic of the '80s AND a metaphor for the political situation in the Reagan Era. Last but not least, this film continues to inspire some pretty good political memes.
Discussion will follow the movie.
This event is free and open to the public. The Black Cat House welcomes all ages, and is a drug and alcohol-free venue. To help keep everyone safe and healthy, we ask that all guests wear face masks in our space. We are wheelchair accessible.
