It’s Not What You Think It Is! SOCIETY Screens Midnights This Weekend at The Moolah

By  | 


“You were right Billy, I am a butthead!”


SOCIETY (1989) screens Midnights this weekend (March 29th and 30th) at The Moolah Theater and Lounge (3821 Lindell Blvd, St. Louis, MO 63108) as part of  Destroy the Brain’s monthly Late Nite Grindhouse film series.


SOCIETY (1989) directed by Brian Yuzna (producer of RE-ANIMATOR) is a strange horror/sci-fi satire on the yuppie way of life.


Beverly Hills teen (Billy Warlock – great as our perplexed and horrified hero.) begins to suspect that there’s something very wrong with his snobbish family, is he imagining it or are they… inhuman?!

SOCIETY is one original and shocking black comedy. There’s never a dull moment in the wacky story, which starts out as a paranoia mystery then only gets increasingly weird from there on out. It all builds to a warped finale that you won’t forget! It’s one of those surreal and gruesome terrors that makes you wonder if you should be laughing or screaming at what you’re seeing. The makeup work of Screaming Mad George is very effectively disturbing. The direction of Yuzna is well-done and the addition of the Eton Boat Song as the films theme is a clever touch.

SOCIETY is one of those unique genre oddities that must be seen to be fully realized, one very wild trip that’s well deserving of a cult status and lucky St. Louisans will have the rare chance to see it on the big screen this weekend at The Moolah.


THE PSYCHOTRONIC PRE-SHOW STARTS AROUND 11:30P WITH THE FILM STARTING AT MIDNIGHT.


The Moolah Theatre & Lounge serves alcohol until 2:30AM! Feel free to show up early and stay late to have some drinks and get friendly with the amazing Moolah staff.
