The Room
directed by Tommy Wiseau starring Tommy Wiseau, Juliette Danielle and Greg Sestero (2003)

“Must be seen to be disbelieved.Must be seen to be disbelieved.” —The Chicagoist
The Outfit
directed by John Flynn starring Robert Duvall (1974)
In one of the greatest crime films ever made, Robert Duvall plays a man avenging his brother’s death at the hands of the mob. Released from prison, he teams up with his former partner to pillage the mob at their card games and collection points until he collects an amount of money he deems sufficient for his loss, or until they pay him off. Criminally under-seen, do not miss this!

When a Sumatran rat-monkey bites Lionel Cosgrove’s mother, she’s transformed into a zombie. She begins killing (and transforming) the entire town while Lionel races to keep things under control. Events culminate at a house party that turns into a blood-drenched zombie buffet. 20th Anniversary!
