About the film

The Dude abides! That’s right, Mr. Jeffrey Lebowski, aka “The Dude”, has found contentment living the LA slacker lifestyle…he’s a sort of bodhisattva of bowling alleys, booze, and bong rips. One night, however, The Dude is attacked in his apartment by a couple of thugs who steal his rug…a rug that really ties his living room together. Enlisting the help of his bowling buddies Walter and Donny to investigate, The Dude soon learns that the crime was the result of mistaken identity…there’s actually another Jeffrey Lebowski!

This classic Coen Brothers film has all the hallmarks of their best work – a wild story, unforgettable characters, and an endless list of quotable one-liners. There’s no question why it is recognized the world over as one of the greatest cult films of all time!

About the film

Jimmy Stewart stars as San Francisco police detective “Scottie” Ferguson who leaves the force after witnessing a fellow officer fall to his death and thereafter suffers from acrophobia – an unsettling fear of heights, accompanied by the dizzying sensation of vertigo. When an old friend asks Ferguson to do him a favor and follow his strangely-behaving wife Madeleine, he does so and becomes embroiled in a complex murder scheme that forces him to confront his deepest fears.

Considered by many to be Hitchcock’s magnum opus, Vertigo has everything you could want from a psychological thriller. The beautiful on-location cinematography by Robert Burks also gives audiences exquisite views of San Francisco in its late-1950s heyday. Garnering mixed reviews at the time of its release, this film has since gone on to be considered one of the greatest films in cinema history.

About the film

The year is 1977, and French scientists are investigating the strange reappearance of aircraft and ships that had vanished in previous decades. Meanwhile, blue-collar utility work Roy Neary is sent out on an emergency call to restore power to his rural Indiana territory and has a life-changing encounter with a UFO that leaves a mark both on his psyche and half his face. Afterwards, Roy’s behavior grows more erratic, with an increasing obsession with UFO-logy and unshakable visions of a mysterious shape, until his wife leaves with the kids in exasperation. Eventually, Roy discovers that the shape is actually a terrestrial object – The Devil’s Tower in Wyoming – and he becomes convinced that this geographical location holds the key to the bizarre events that he has been witness to. Joining up with a mother whose child has vanished, the two travel to the natural monument and have a once-in-a-lifetime encounter in one of the most spectacular moments in cinema history.

About the film

Hidden beneath Beverly Sutphin’s veneer of the stereotypical suburban housewife lies the ruthless, bloodthirsty heart of a serial killer who claims her victims over the most trivial of offenses. When a harassing phone call to a neighbor gets the police involved, Beverly’s secret gets uncovered and a viscous spate of killings ensues. Beverly is able to elude capture for a bit, but eventually she is arrested and ends up representing herself at trial. Even though she is acquitted of the charges, she goes back to her old ways and its anyone’s guess if she’ll be caught again.

John Waters is a zany master of satire and all-around weirdness, and Serial Mom doesn’t disappoint. Featuring cameos from celebrities like Patty Hearst, Suzanne Sommers, Joan Rivers, and Traci Lords, this film is the epitome of a cult classic!
