🤯 Movie Roadhouse and The Hideout are teaming up—one film, two communities, and this time, we’re geared up to do some brain damage!

👋 Hi guys! This a grotesque and hallucinatory tour de force, Brain Damage exemplifies Frank Henenlotter’s signature blend of body horror, dark comedy, and urban decay. With surreal practical effects, pulsating gore, and a warped sense of humor, the film transforms the human body into a battleground of parasitic control, addiction, and the intoxicating allure of self-destruction…

The film is set set in the shadowy underbelly of New York City, a young man named Brian becomes host to a parasitic creature named Aylmer, which injects a euphoric, mind-altering fluid directly into his brain. As the addiction takes hold, Brian finds himself caught between pleasure and destruction, forced to commit increasingly violent acts to feed the creature’s insatiable hunger. Checkout the Trailer

We'll meet at The Nickel Cinema, the heir apparent to the historical Scala, which is the home to the most subversive, bewildering, sensational, fearless, sublime, shocking, transgressive, death-defying, psychedelic, psychotronic, bizarre, rebellious and baffling cinematic treasures - from the silent era to the digital age.

Check out the details below—I'll see you all there!
