On Friday and Saturday, August 9th and 10th, The Mahoning Drive-In Theater brings back the glory days of disreputable films playing in disreputable theaters, when we present a rare 35mm screening of Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino’s ode to devious double features of the past with GRINDHOUSE (2007)!
One movie, two features, all action! Together in one smash explosive show!
Join us as we deep dive into the glory days of downtown urban theaters and rural Drive-Ins who’d run fantastic flicks filled with cheap thrills and high-octane excitement to audiences hungry for more, more, MORE!
Return to the GRINDHOUSE with Robert Rodriguez’ goopy, gory ode to Italian splatter films, PLANET TERROR, starring Rose McGowan, Josh Brolin, Freddy Rodriguez, Bruce Willis and Fergie, all running and gunning for their lives during a zombie outbreak!
Then! Quentin Tarantino drops the hammer and hits the blower into overdrive with his ode to 1970s car chase flicks with DEATH PROOF, starring Kurt Russell as a former stuntman who has a car that’s built for speed and ready to kill!
Along with the two features are the original fake trailers and snack bar ads included to create the illusion of seeing these films at an actual grindhouse or Drive-In, making for a sleek 3-hour slip back in time!
PLUS!
As an added bonus each night, we’ll be screening a vintage grindhouse flick from deep within the mighty Mahoning vaults! Guaranteed imperfection and vintage vibes, the titles will remain a mystery until they hit the screen!
Arrive early for a live DJ set, themed raffles, and more fun!
