St. Louis Night Owls, Rejoice! Tivoli Starts the Midnight Series July 17th!

By  | 

TIVOLI

Oh yes,   the midnight show.   If you never have been to one, you must attend.   Granted, the line up is not a true midnight movie line up, but some great movies are being shown.   I’m also pretty sure some of us Movie Geeks will be attending some of these.   Comment below if you want to meet up!   The films run every weekend starting on July 17th and end November 7th with the granddaddy of all midnight movies – ‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show’ at the Tivoli Theatre in the Loop off of Delmar Blvd.

I is movie geek. Hear me rawr. Ok, time for the professional speak. I have always been a movie geek. For serious. My dad fed me on a healthy diet of Blade Runner & Clockwork Orange. My mother introduced me to horror & psychological thrillers like Rosemary's Baby & Robert Wise's The Haunting. These mere morsels of celluoid only whet my appetite. During my teenage years, you could find me searching for the next Full Moon pictures joint on the old VHS shelves. I dug through the archives of backwoods slashers of the 80's and ate spaghetti with the Italian maestros by the flavors of Bava, Argento & Fulci. Now, I have reached the lower realms of depravity by thinking that Cannibal Holocaust is required viewing & running a weekly podcast, DESTROY THE BRAIN!, covering horror & genre film. Hmmm, I'm going to stop while I'm ahead. Favorite Films: Halloween (1978), La Haine, Vertigo, Rosemary's Baby, Fight Club, Nightmare on Elm Street, Kidnapped (Rabid Dogs), The Blair Witch Project..and the list just keeps growing.
