ONLY IN CINEMAS OCTOBER

SYNOPSIS:

From acclaimed filmmaker David Fincher (Se7en, Fight Club, and Gone Girl), and starring Academy Award Nominee Michael Fassbender  and Academy Award Winner Tilda Swinton comes the neo-noir action thriller THE KILLER

A man solitary and cold, methodical and unencumbered, the killer waits in the shadows, watching for his next target. And yet the longer  he waits, the more he thinks he’s losing his mind, if not his cool. A brutal, bloody and stylish noir story of a professional assassin lost in a  world without a moral compass, this is a case study of a man alone, armed to the teeth and slowly losing his mind. 

“This is a thriller of pure surface and style and managed with terrific flair and Fassbender’s careworn, inscrutable face is just right for it.” – The Guardian 

THE KILLER Red Carpet Preview includes a Stone & Wood beer on arrival.

ONE NIGHT ONLY

SYNOPSIS:

Time Warp into one of our Frank-N-Furter Fridays Hosted Screenings 💋

Get ready for some partici… pation!

Generally credited as being the best-known cinematic “Midnight Movie”, for decades now The Rocky Horror Picture Show has been a “Cult Classic” in every sense of the word.

Starring the inimitable Tim Curry and Susan Sarandon, the bizarre, over-the-top, and very unapologetic sci-fi/horror musical/gender-bending rock opera is a true, undeniable legend of cinema!

But it’s not just the film itself… far from it, even! THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW is all about the fans… and more specifically, the audience participation! Rocky Horror is the first and only true audience partici- (SAY IT!)-pation movie. People yell back lines at the screen during the extended pauses between dialogue, dress up in costume and act out the film, and throw props various times during the film. Think of it as one part dinner theatre, one part drag show, one part roast, and of course, all parts insanity

With free participation kits for all guests, and hosted by Brisbane drag royalty – the most fabulous drag queens on the scene, MAXI-BON at Dendy Coorparoo and SHU SHU FUNTANNA at Dendy Cinemas Portside, this will be night to remember.

So, dress for a trip to Transylvania with our sing-along, dance-a-long screening of this timeless cultural phenomenon.

Screening at Dendy Cinemas Coorparoo and Dendy Cinemas Portside October 13, 2023, you can great tickets here: https://www.dendy.com.au/the-rocky-horror-picture-show—frank-n-furter-fridays/
