Need your fix of the best in sci-fi? This week’s main feature: Jason & The Argonauts (1963). Jason has been prophesied to take the throne of Thessaly. When he saves Pelias from drowning, but does not recognize him as the man who had earlier killed his father, Pelias tells Jason to travel to Colchis to find the Golden Fleece. Jason follows his advice and assembles a sailing crew of the finest men in Greece, including Hercules. They are under the protection of Hera, queen of the gods. Their voyage is replete with battles against harpies, a giant bronze Talos, a hydra, and an animated skeleton army, all brought to life by the special effects wizardry of Ray Harryhausen.

Check out our meticulously curated pre-show filled with all sorts of: animations & short films, trivia, from behind-the-scenes footage to funny retro-PSA’s, non-sequiturs, and everything in between. We have themed-cocktails at the bar, get transported back in time with retro video-games in the lobby, or secure one of our coveted collectors-edition movie posters.

FREE RAFFLE!! - Admission grants you one raffle ticket for a chance to win some very cool, very strange prizes including: movie tickets, figurines, posters, books, cards, VHS movies and more for that inner sci-fi enthusiast and collector in us all.

So gather your friends, family, or come solo, and prepare for a one-of-a-kind cinematic experience. Whether you grew up with the film, are obsessed with all things mythology, or even a first-time explorer of the cult-cinema world — rediscover the magic of movies on the big screen and relish the communal experience that only a gathering at the cinema can offer.
