If entertaining ‘70s car culture movies with great chases are your thing, then check out DIRTY MARY CRAZY LARRY. In 1974, John Hough delivered a fast paced, and surprisingly entertaining film. Peter Fonda is Larry Rayder, a down and out race car driver with dreams of driving in the big-time NASCAR circuit. Along with his mechanic, Deke Sommers (Adam Roarke), they rob a supermarket to finance their dreams, and make a run to escape with the loot. Along the way, they are blackmailed by fast and sexy Mary Coombs (curvy Susan George), who insists that they take her along for the ride. In their race for freedom, they evade an entire division of Highway Patrol cars, and tough-as-nails Sherriff Vic Morrow in their 440-powered 1969 Dodge Charger only to face their destiny on the brink of their success!

Next is THE 4-D MAN

In THE 4-D MAN (1959), Robert Lansing plays a scientist trying to perfect a way to make solid objects pass through each other. He succeeds so well that he takes the idea a step further: he makes himself pass through solid objects. The process has an adverse effect on his mind, and he starts walking through the walls of banks at night, stealing the cash. Unfortunately, the use of his new power causes him to age rapidly, and the only way he can rejuvenate himself is to absorb life-energy by passing through another human being — even though this kills the victim. Lee Meriwether and Patty Duke costar in THE 4-D MAN, a memorable, rarely-screened ‘50s sci-fi favorite.

There will be movie trivia with prizes and of course The Way Out Club will have a full bar and Way Out Pizzas for sale. Don’t miss it!
