SERIAL MOM (1994) w/ Snapped pre-show @ 6 pm

August 7 : 7:00 pm 9:00 pm

“Uproariously funny, maliciously malicious!” – Time Out

The Pope of Trash satirizes the dark heart of suburban normalcy in this wicked black comedy. Kathleen Turner plays wholesome suburban mom Beverly, a picture-perfect homemaker whose fascination with serial killers transforms her into a Good Housekeeping murder queen who kills anyone and everyone who fails to live up to her standards. Featuring appearances by Ricki Lake, Matthew Lillard, Mink Stole, Suzanne Somers, Traci Lords and Patty Hearst, SERIAL MOM gleefully skewers conformity, suburbia, and (perhaps most presciently) America’s obsession with true crime. Grab your own mama and bring her to the movies for a Mother’s Slay that’ll leave you in stitches…if Beverly doesn’t get you first!
