What we’re about
Founded by Nick Kuechler (Co-Owner of the Cinemagic Theater), Downhill Film Club is a twice monthly film club that meets at Gift Bar. Every meet up starts with a short presentation from one of Portland's many expert film nerds, followed by an open discussion. Films can be from any genre, but they'll always be something that recently played one of the awesome repertory (aka Revival) theaters in town.

Film Discussion - THEY LIVE and the films of John Carpenter
Gift PDX, 1935 SE Hawthorne Blvd, Portland, OR, USThis week we'll be discussing a personal favorite, John Carpenter's They Live. Though originally a reaction to Regan era economics, the films fear of unfettered capitalism and corporate control is still plenty relevant 40 years later.
Start time is 7:00, and we'll wrap up around 8:00. After that, people tend to hang out and talk shop until late. It's always a good time.
They Live plays December 16 at the Clinton Street Theater, and is readily available for streaming and rental.2 attendees
