From the mind of visionary filmmaker Zach Cregger (Barbarian, Weapons) comes a thrilling — and terrifying — reinvention of the Resident Evil franchise! In an all-new story, the film follows Bryan (played by Austin Abrams), a medical courier who unwittingly finds himself in an action-packed, non-stop race for survival as one fateful, horrifying night collapses around him in chaos.
Robert Pattinson stars in a new biographical psychological crime thriller from A24 Studios!
Set twenty years ago, the film details the efforts of Dateline NBC journalist Chris Hansen as he leans hard into creating the compelling (and highly controversial) reality TV series To Catch A Predator — a show designed to catch adult men who sexually prey on minors. To get the series off the ground, Hansen has to walk a very fine line between success and journalistic ethics.

About the Film
Written and directed by Chris Rock, Head of State tells the story of Washington, DC alderman Mays Gilliam who finds himself unexpectedly chosen to be the Democratic nominee for President of the United States when the original nominees for prez and vice-prez are accidentally killed in a plane crash. Gilliam is considered a local hero because he selflessly saved the life of a woman who fell victim to an explosion, and the Dems think that, even though he is not likely to win, Gilliam’s visibility will serve their chances for a victory in an election down the road. Plus, he’s infinitely likeable! When Mays finds himself actually rising in the polls, he starts to take his campaign seriously and begins to speak his mind about what he thinks are the real problems facing the country…in the hilarious way that only Chris Rock can!

On the evening of each event, attendees are instructed to head directly to the Athens City Parking Garage located at 15 E Washington St. Two elevators are available for transport to the top-most level, in addition to a stairwell (for those who enjoy a fitness challenge). Seating for the events will begin at 7:30 p.m., and the films will begin at about 9:00 p.m. (or when it is dark enough for the projected image to be seen on the screen).
Concessions (popcorn, soft drinks, water, candy, etc) will be available for purchase on the rooftop.
Yes! Tickets are $8 for most screenings. Please check individual webpages for pricing. We will have staff checking tickets at the rooftop entrance. If you leave the rooftop, you will need to bring your ticket(s) with you for re-entry.
While we may have tickets to sell the night of the event, it is strongly encouraged that you reserve your tickets in advance in case of a sellout.
Patrons are strongly encouraged to bring their own chairs, blankets, sleeping bags, or whatever other seating arrangement will make them comfortable. We will mark off sections with paths to allow for access to the concession area and elevators.
Don’t forget – the temperature on the rooftop often drops significantly once the sun goes down, even in warmer months. So, we encourage you to bring a hoodie, jacket, socks, and/or an extra blanket…whatever you need to stay warm.
Unfortunately, No.
Due to the recent upgrades to the Athens City Parking Garage, there are no longer any bathrooms available at the facility. As a result, The Athena Cinema bathrooms (20 S. Court St) will be available to patrons of the rooftop movie screening. Just make sure that you hold onto your ticket so that you will be able to get back into the film screening when you return to your seat.
Concessions will be available for purchase on the rooftop.

No alcohol will be served or available for purchase.
Yes! We will have non-alcoholic beverage options — canned soda and water bottles — available at our rooftop concession stand.
Each outdoor screening will have a foul-weather backup plan should the weather not cooperate. The Athena will communicate through social media, email, and our website should the decision be made to either relocate the screening to the Athena Cinema or postpone an outdoor screening. You will not need to repurchase your tickets should the event or the date move.
In the event of rain, the event may be moved inside to the Athena Cinema at 20 S. Court St.
The parking garage has elevator access from each floor that leads directly to the roof. Accessible parking is available in the garage and on the streets in metered spots.
Parking is available in the Athens City Parking Garage levels 2 through 5. The address for the parking garage is 15 E Washington Street. You will use the entrance on Washington Street, NOT College Street. The College Street entrance is only for permit holders.
