MURS
"So with Murs for President, he just did what he does, churning out another strong album of choppy retro samples that pretend chipmunk-soul and snap never existed." - Village Voice

"Murs' spitball rhymes and thick beats have always showcased a proclivity for stardom, and they bear fruit on the soulful piano galumph of 'Time Is Know.'" - Filter

Suite 420 Tour

Devin The Dude
"There are no state-of-the-art flourishes (like Kanye West’s sped-up soul samples); he furnishes most of his own hooks, without the assistance of Auto-Tune, the now ubiquitous vocal effect favored by rappers who can’t really sing (Devin sings, and quite nicely too); and the only big-name rapper he invites is Snoop Dogg, with whom he shares some genuine stoner chemistry. Track after track (there are only twelve, and mercifully no skits), the beats land just so. And nowhere is he more confident than in his rhymes." - NY Magazine

TOYS GONE BAD...

Child's Play 7:00pm
1988

A chubby toy doll named Chucky becomes an instrument of terror in director Tom Holland's unnerving tale of horror.

Phantasm 8:30pm

1979
Often considered one of the icons of 1970s independent horror cinema, director Don Coscarelli's classic nail-biter follows two boys who, in pursuit of an odd-looking grave robber, may wind up as the newest members of a freshly dead slave race.

Puppet Master 10:00

1989
In director David Schmoeller's taut chiller, perverse master puppeteer Andre Toulon (William Hickey) harnesses the power of ancient Egyptian magic to breathe life into his crew of marionettes, who morph into demonic killers.
