$3 MYSTERY MOVIE: An Outrageous Black-Directed Horror Fantasy Comedy Musical
February 24 : 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
On the last Monday of every month, Arkadin chooses an underseen deep cut to inflict upon an unwitting audience. Though the genre and tone may change, the price always remains the same: three measly bucks. You can’t afford not to get yourself a ticket!
This month, our $3 Mystery Movie crosses over with our Offbeat Black Comedies series as we presented a truly outrageous and wonderful horror-fantasy-comedy-musical hybrid that must be experienced to be believed. As jubilant as it is bizarre, this truly singular film by one of African-American cinema’s great eccentrics is an effusive celebration of Black life that also happens to be one of the strangest damn films you’ll ever see. Just three dollars to cleanse your filthy soul! How can you refuse?
This film is screening as part of Arkadin’s “Offbeat Black Comedies” series, a collection of wonderfully peculiar films made by African-American directors.
