The Rental with writer/director Dave Franco
In 6 days · Oct 13 Vidiots at the Eagle Theatre, 4884…

Everyone has been on the group trip where the house was beautiful and something was wrong. Not wrong enough to say out loud on the first night - just a door that did not lock right, a host who answered too fast, a friend who got quiet in the car. You spend the weekend deciding whether you are being paranoid or polite. That is the nerve this movie puts a thumb on, and its director is going to be standing in the room afterward explaining exactly how he built it. Dave Franco made his directorial debut with a vacation-rental horror film that understood the real fear was never the stranger - it was the four people you already knew. He is bringing special guests and taking questions on 35mm-house turf where the crowd actually stays for the Q and A instead of filing out. Insider note: the Eagle Theatre seats about 270, and guest nights sell through before the week starts. One night only, Tuesday October 13, 7:30pm.

Bones on 35mm with director Ernest R. Dickerson
In 14 days · Oct 21 Vidiots at the Eagle Theatre, 4884…

There was a shelf in the video store nobody's parents walked down, and whatever was on it got passed to you by an older cousin who swore you could handle it. For a lot of people that was this one: a haunted-house picture built on a Black neighborhood's memory of what got taken from it, starring Snoop Dogg as a ghost in a full-length fur, with Pam Grier in the house. It was dismissed on arrival in 2001 and has spent the years since becoming a genuine cult object. Now the man who shot Do the Right Thing and directed Juice is bringing it back on an actual 35mm print and standing up to talk about it. Ernest R. Dickerson is one of the most important cinematographers in American film and he does not do many of these. The print is the point - the reds in this movie were designed for film and have never looked right on a stream. The print screens Wednesday, October 21 at 7:30pm.

Oct 26, 2026 Vidiots at the Eagle Theatre, 4884…

A mother and a daughter share a shack in a Manila slaughterhouse district, and the mother's much younger boyfriend moves in, and from that one sentence the whole machine of the film grinds forward with no possibility of anyone stopping it. Lino Brocka shot it in 1976 inside the actual Tondo neighbourhood, during a dictatorship that was censoring everything it could reach, and it became the first Filipino film ever shown at Cannes. What lands hardest now is not the cruelty but the heat: you can feel the corrugated roof, the queue for water, the way privacy simply does not exist as a concept. Hilda Koronel plays the daughter's turn from endurance into calculation so quietly that you miss the exact moment it happens and spend the rest of the film hunting for it. It screens Monday, October 26 at 7:30pm in Eagle Rock. Anyone with family in the Philippines should bring somebody who has only heard the stories second-hand.

Italo-Disco Horror Night - Argento's Deep Red
Oct 27, 2026 Vidiots at the Eagle Theatre, 4884…

Giallo and italo-disco came out of the same country in the same decade, and almost nobody thinks to put them in one room. Argento's 1975 picture is the one with the Goblin score, the murder glimpsed through a window by a man who cannot trust what he saw, and a colour palette that makes no logical sense and perfect emotional sense. A DJ spins italo before the film and again after it, so you dance, then you watch somebody get killed to what is essentially a prog-rock lullaby, then you dance again — and the second dance feels different, which is the joke and also the point. It screens in a restored Eagle Rock movie house that still runs 35mm and keeps a thirty-six seat microcinema down the hall. Doors open ninety minutes before the picture, because the first set is not a warm-up act. Horror obsessives and record collectors end up finding each other in the lobby, which is not something either scene planned on. Doors six, picture seven-thirty, Tuesday the 27th of October, at the old Eagle Theatre on Eagle Rock Blvd.

Ginger Snaps
Oct 28, 2026 Vidiots at the Eagle Theatre, 4884…

Two sisters make a pact to die together rather than grow up separately, and then one of them gets bitten. Everybody describes this as the werewolf-as-puberty film, which is accurate and also sells it short, because the horror is not the transformation, it is watching a person you organised your whole personality around start finding you embarrassing. It came out in 2000, was barely released, and survived entirely on word of mouth and traded copies until it became the thing a certain kind of teenager hands to another certain kind of teenager. Katharine Isabelle and Emily Perkins play the sisters with a deadpan that makes the funny parts land and the sad parts land harder. Seeing it with a room that already loves it is a different experience from discovering it alone at sixteen, which is how most people here did. Wednesday, October 28 at 7:30pm in Eagle Rock. Text your sister.

Physical Media Mind-Melters: Vidiots in Space!
Oct 6, 2026 Vidiots at the Eagle Theatre, 4884…

That shelf in your apartment has never once been justifiable and you have never once considered getting rid of it. Discs you will probably never play again, some of them scratched, a few of them still shrink-wrapped, all of them heavier than the streaming library that replaced them. You keep it because a menu that can change overnight is not the same as owning a thing. This is a night for people who feel that in their chest. The room goes dark and what comes up is 35mm - actual film, actual grain, actual splices - pulled from the strangest corners of the space-movie canon and programmed by people who treat physical media as a moral position rather than a hobby. Psychedelic, funny, deeply weird, and assembled specifically to be seen alongside other people who will gasp at the same cut. A detail the regulars know: the Eagle Theatre is a restored 1929 house, and the projectionist runs it hot and loud on purpose. It runs Tuesday, October 6 at 7:30pm, in the old Eagle Theatre that Vidiots restored.

Carnival of Souls
Oct 5, 2026 Vidiots at the Eagle Theatre, 4884…

Some films are frightening. This one is worse, because it is about the sensation of being present at your own life and unable to make contact with any of it. A woman walks out of a river after a car goes off a bridge, takes a job playing church organ in a town where nobody quite meets her eye, and keeps being drawn toward an abandoned lakeside pavilion. It was shot in three weeks in 1962 by a man who otherwise made industrial and educational films, on almost no money, with a cast of non-professionals, and that accidental amateurism is precisely why it works: nothing behaves the way a studio picture teaches you to expect. The organ score does most of the damage. Directors have been quietly stealing from it ever since, usually without saying so. Monday, October 5 at 7:30pm in Eagle Rock. It runs seventy-eight minutes and it follows people home.
