COMING SOON
Hope
Wednesday, September 9th
A mysterious discovery is made on the outskirts of the remote harbor town. The residents find themselves in a desperate fight for survival against something they have never encountered before.
This bloody, Korean sci-fi thriller relishes the unease it places on the audience. Hope may lull you into thinking it’s a classic heroic Western before it morphs into a surprising creature feature. It is bold, provocative, and assured filmmaking that oscillates between moments of breathtaking cinematography and satirical characterizations. Sit back and enjoy the bawdy humor, bad CGI, and brilliant action.

Practical Magic 2
Friday, September 11th
A multi generational family of witches, cursed to be loveless for centuries, attempts to break the spell by confronting dark secrets and sacrificing for each other.
Practical Magic 2 returns to a world steeped in moonlit mischief and powerful ancestral magic starring Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman, Dianne Wiest and Stockard Channing. This sequel is the perfect, nostalgic, seasonally appropriate salve for anyone wanting to be promptly whisked away from the current reality and into one where we can all enjoy midnight margaritas while being serenaded by Faith Hill’s This Kiss.

Resident Evil
Thursday, September 17th
A hapless courier (Shay Hatten) is tasked with delivering a package to a remote hospital. He soon finds himself caught in the middle of a zombie outbreak and must fight through hordes of mutated creatures to survive.
Weapons director Zach Cregger delivers a video game adaptation that embraces simplicity, keeps things tight, and doesn’t hold back. This Resident Evil is far more cinematic than its predecessors, with strong visual framing and heavy use of practical effects.

Primetime
Friday, September 25th
In 2006, To Catch a Predator host Chris Hansen (Robert Pattinson) sets out to make television history.
Directed by documentarian Lance Oppenheim - in his fiction feature debut - the film dives headfirst into Hansen's motivations for making the show, and the moral grey area that it occupied — a lucrative, exploitative program, made for primetime entertainment, that proved ruinous for many lives. Pattinson is fully dialed in as Hansen in this dark-but-oddly-zany bio-thriller.

What's Up Doc? (1972)
Fri/Sat, September 25/26 ONLY
The accidental mix-up of four identical plaid overnight bags leads to a series of increasingly wild and wacky situations.
