Popcorn Nights & O Cinema are proud to present the 30th Anniversary of Weird Science

Tuesday, March 31st (9pm)

30 years later and Oingo Boingo’s title track to “Weird Science” is still stuck in my head. Coming off films like “Sixteen Candles” and “The Breakfast Club”, “Weird Science” was a bit of a change for writer/director John Hughes. Even though it is a teen film just the like the other two, this one had more of a goofy sci-fi element to it. Needless to say, it still won over the Hughes fans. “Weird Science” is weird but it’s also fun and funny. To this very day, it remains my absolute favorite performance by Bill Paxton, just edging out his role in 1990’s “Predator 2”. Join us for this special 30th anniversary screening of “Weird Science”.

Weird Science is a 1985 American teen sci-fi comedy film written and directed by John Hughes and starring Anthony Michael Hall, Ilan Mitchell-Smith, and Kelly LeBrock. The film’s producer, Joel Silver, acquired film rights to the pre-Comics Code Authority 1950s EC Comics magazine of the same name, from which the plot is developed as an expansion and modernization of the basic premise in Al Feldstein’s story “Made of the Future” in the fifth issue The title song was written and performed by American new wave band Oingo Boingo.

The screening will be hosted by Marc Ferman of PopcornNights.com Giveaways by 80sTees.com
