The Movie Night and Game Lounge is a monthly film series. We play favourite classic cult movies on our big screen, but along with the movie comes a game lounge, draft beer specials, and a pop-up restaurant.

This month we kick off Season 2 with a Winnipeg favourite, Brian De Palma’s Phantom of the Paradise.  The film forecast the ascendancy of goth rock and reality TV.

Across North America, ‘Phantom’ opened and closed within a week. In Winnipeg, it ran continuously for four months following its release, then on and off until 1976. – Maclean’s
