O’Shea\, Jim Varagona\, and WWM cast members!\n\n\n\n\nThe Veiled Prophet: Secret Societies\, White Supremacy\, and the Struggle for St. Louis\, by Devin Thomas O’SheaA provocative look at the secret society that has controlled St. Louis for over a century\, revealing how shadowy elites organize themselves against working-class power\, Devin Thomas O’Shea’s The Veiled Prophet is the definitive history of the Veiled Prophet Society in all its violence and pageantry\, offering a colorful alternate history of the United States through the lens of the Midwestern elite. O’Shea follows the Veiled Prophet Society from its origins in the wake of the 1877 general strike\, through the 1904 World’s Fair\, to the height of the Prophet’s—and St. Louis’s—influence during the Cold War. The Veiled Prophet examines the unexpected ways this secret society has shaped the course of history\, from the CIA to the Vietnam War to the assassination of Martin Luther King.The Veiled Prophet will be available for sale on site\, or buy a copy now! \n\n\n\nWorld Wide Magazine\, presented by Jim VaragonaWorld Wide Magazine was a public access television program in St. Louis from 1986–2001. Its creator\, Peter E. Parisi\, chronicled the city in his own way\, pushing the limits of freedom of speech. In the late 1980s and early 1990s\, he and his crew of misfits attended the annual V.P. Fair downtown. The National Park Service tried to keep them out\, but a very public media battle in 1991 led to their filming rights being reinstated. This compilation captures plenty of revelry\, hoosier patriotism\, and bratwurst. Go along for the ride with Pete\, Big Daddy\, Marty\, Marty’s Brother Mark\, Dumptruck Dave Perry\, Miss Cathy\, Black Jesus\, The Mad Russian\, and more. This presentation is curated and will be introduced by Jim Varagona\, archivist of The Pete Parisi Archives. \n\n\n\nThis event is not available for booking with the Club Arkadin pass. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTheater Policies\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll seats are first-come\, first-served.\n\n\n\nThe theater opens 30 minutes prior to showtime\, except for “Happy Hour” events and pre-shows when the theater opens at the listed start time.\n\n\n\nWhen a screening is sold out\, we open a waitlist 30 minutes before showtime.

SUMMARY:CRIP CAMP: A DISABILITY REVOLUTION (2020) presented by the Starkloff Network -- FREE!
DESCRIPTION:“A vital and joyful work that puts a lesser-known part of American civil rights history on the map” – Sight & Sound \n\n\n\nDown the road from Woodstock\, a revolution blossomed in a ramshackle summer camp for teenagers with disabilities\, transforming their lives and igniting the disability-rights movement. At Camp Jened\, teens with disabilities tasted freedom\, friendship\, and self‑expression; decades later those bonds fueled protests\, sit‑ins\, and policy fights that reshaped American civil rights. Through archival footage and candid interviews\, Crip Camp: A Disability Revolution provides a galvanizing chronicle of community united around the fight for rights and dignity. \n\n\n\nThis film is presented with closed captions and audio description. \n\n\n\nPresented on the 36th anniversary of the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act\, this 100% FREE screening is presented by the Starkloff Network.

SUMMARY:Guy Maddin's "hilariously bizarre" CAREFUL (1992) -- new 4K restoration presented by Lost in the Arthouse
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLOST IN THE ARTHOUSE is a monthly series hosted by Arkadin co-owner Keith Watson that takes you to hidden corners of filmdom far from Hollywood. From must-see classics to obscurities waiting to be discovered\, these films stand at cinema’s bleeding edge. \n\n\n\n“Hilariously bizarre… like some lost masterpiece from a time-warped alternative dimension.” – The Washington Post \n\n\n\nArkadin favorite Guy Maddin’s early masterpiece takes place in a 19th-century Alpine village where the wary residents—adult\, child and animal—must speak softly and tread lightly lest they cause an avalanche. But sexual frenzies teem in this world of repression\, setting off incestuous love triangles and quadrangles with deadly consequences. Bathed in lurid\, luminescent tints\, CAREFUL is Maddin’s twisted ode to a largely forgotten film subgenre\, the German “Bergfilme” of the 1920s and ’30s\, which pitted man (and woman) against mountain in epic survivalist adventures. Merging these bygone conventions with Maddin’s own delirious obsessions results in a truly singular work that resembles a vintage melodrama from another planet. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person. However\, we encourage researching titles to determine if a screening may contain content that could be upsetting to you. Please feel free to contact us for guidance on specific films. Information about content can also be found on Common Sense Media\, IMDB and DoesTheDogDie.com\, as well as through general internet searches. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTheater Policies\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll seats are first-come\, first-served.\n\n\n\nThe theater opens 30 minutes prior to showtime\, except for “Happy Hour” events and pre-shows when the theater opens at the listed start time.\n\n\n\nWhen a screening is sold out\, we open a waitlist 30 minutes before showtime.

SUMMARY:MAD MAX: FURY ROAD (2015) -- outdoor screening sponsored by Proper Cannabis
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Believe all the hype: This movie will melt your face off.” – Christy Lemire \n\n\n\nA relentless\, high-octane chase across a sun-scorched wasteland\, Mad Max: Fury Road is undeniably one of the greatest action movies ever made. Director George Miller returned to his Mad Max roots and unleashed a visceral symphony of roaring engines\, explosive stunts\, and mind-blowingly kinetic visuals. Tom Hardy stars as the stoic Max while Charlize Theron is ferocious as Imperator Furiosa. The two form an unlikely alliance to rescue enslaved women from a tyrant’s citadel\, sparking a thunderous rebellion in the process. With minimal dialogue\, a thunderous score\, and wildly inventive practical effects\, Fury Road takes you on a breathless ride through a surreal wasteland in a raw\, powerful and utterly exhilarating odyssey. \n\n\n\nThis outdoor screening is part of the Stoner Cinema series sponsored by our friends at Proper Cannabis and their product line Daily Driver. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

SUMMARY:$3 MONDAY MYSTERY MOVIE: A Demented Black Comedy About a Deliciously Dysfunctional Family
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOn 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!  \n\n\n\nThis month’s Mystery Movie is a hilariously unhinged ’90s cult comedy that combines venomous pitch-black wit with Southern Gothic psychodrama. When the film was released\, critics were divided and audiences were baffled\, but time has been kind to this deliciously demented gem. Anchored by a truly fearless lead performance and directed by a first-time filmmaker who would go on to helm a slew of highly successful studio crowd-pleasers\, this shocking\, hilarious\, and deeply uncomfortable is the family reunion from Hell. You’ll laugh! You’ll gasp! You’ll spend the ride home wondering\, “What on earth did I just watch?” \n\n\n\nThis month’s mystery movie will be introduced by Josh Margherita. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTheater Policies\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll seats are first-come\, first-served.\n\n\n\nThe theater opens 30 minutes prior to showtime\, except for “Happy Hour” events and pre-shows when the theater opens at the listed start time.\n\n\n\nWhen a screening is sold out\, we open a waitlist 30 minutes before showtime.

He remains the visionary of camp and the den mother of the bizarre… This film is a triumphant example of the most vital bad taste in America.” – The Village Voice \n\n\n\nFollowing the unrepentant outrageousness of Pink Flamingos and Female Trouble\, director John Waters brought his notorious trash trilogy to a fittingly twisted close with this antifascist fairy tale. After hysterical housewife Peggy Gravel (Mink Stole) murders her husband with the help of her fed-up housekeeper (Jean Hill)\, the newfound “sisters in crime” escape to the bizarro shantytown of Mortville\, a depraved penal colony presided over by a despotic queen (Edith Massey) whose tyranny pushes her subjects to shocking revolt. Deviant cops\, death by dog food\, DIY surgery—Waters unleashes all this and more in an at once relentlessly warped and oddly moral vision of queer rebellion. \n\n\n\nIn honor of the Desperate Living’s star\, stripper Liz Renay\, this film is presented with a vintage burlesque pre-show\, starting at 6:30 pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

SUMMARY:POINT BREAK (1991) w/ Red Hot Chili Peppers pre-show @ 6 pm
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“A full-throttle action showcase that capitalises on its ‘90s flare and rides the wave right until the end.” – Loud and Clear Reviews \n\n\n\nKeanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze star in one of the greatest action movies of the 1990s! Point Break is a high-octane surf‑and‑sky thriller starring Reeves as rookie FBI agent Johnny Utah\, who goes undercover to infiltrate a gang of charismatic\, adrenaline‑junkie bank robbers led by the enigmatic Bodhi (Swayze). Between dawn surf sessions and gravity‑defying skydives\, Utah’s loyalty frays as he’s seduced by their outlaw code and the intoxicating freedom they chase. Director Kathryn Bigelow blends pulse‑pounding action with philosophical heat\, while the stars ignite the screen with kinetic homoerotic chemistry\, while Lori Petty\, John C. McGinley\, and Gary Busey chew the luscious SoCal scenery. A cult classic that still thrills\, Point Break is a raw\, stylish rush. \n\n\n\nIn honor of Anthony Kiedis’ small role\, we pay tribute to that equally iconic artifact of Gen X LA\, the Red Hot Chili Peppers\, with a pre-show at 6 pm. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.
