The Warriors
Alright, you mavericks, listen up! Picture this: an alternate future where the Big Apple's street gangs are dolled up like they've just waltzed out of a twisted off-Broadway fever dream. Enter THE WARRIORS, a tale of grit and grime, headlined by Michael Beck (yeah, you know him from Xanadu and, well, The Warriors). Our ragtag crew heads to a gang summit in the heart of The Bronx, only to get framed for a murder they didn't do. Now, every bloodthirsty gang in the city is on their tails as they claw their way back to the safety of Coney Island. Will The Warriors crush the hordes of New York's underworld, or get swallowed by the city's seedy underbelly?
If you've ever craved a 90-minute blast of pure street brawls, dripping with the raw energy of Michael Jackson's "Beat It" video but stripped of the tunes and twirls, then THE WARRIORS is your jam. And here's the kicker, folks: this ride is brought to you by The Grindhouse Film Club and could be their last show ever at the legendary New Hope Cinema. Don't miss out... it's gonna be a wild one!
