They don’t advertise for killers in the newspaper. That was my profession. Ex-cop. Ex-blade runner. Ex-killer.

Thanks to everyone that voted last week. We knew from the outset that there was a clear favourite for this one. After all, when it comes to visions of the future nothing quite hits the spot like… Blade Runner!

And what’s even more exciting is that we’re going to have both the original and the directors cut at our disposal, so we’re going to put it to the audience to decide which one we screen with a show of hands.

So come join us this Weds 16th September to have a peek into the future and figure out if you like what you see. Doors are at 7pm as per, and we’ll be starting the film at 7:30pm sharp at An Outlet on Dale Street. Remember there’s a very limited seating capacity (30) so make sure you get there on time to avoid disappointment.

There will be £6 bottles of red and white wine available to purchase, as well as a range of lovely bottled beers, popcorn, nachos and penny sweets. And as always entrance is 100% free.

We hope to see you there!

The eighth party….

Monday, September 7th, 2009

Hello folks - thanks to you guys who braved the weather and managed to made it down to Groundhog Day last week. Hooray for Bill Murray… and even Andie McDowell who wasn’t quite as annoying as usual.

For the eighth party we’re stepping things up a notch and taking a trip into the future. For the eight Arty Farty Film Party we’d like you to vote for your favourite… 80’s vision of the future! All that spandex and those shoddy stage sets really capture a future I’d like to be a part of.

Now we will be doing a party dedicated to 80’s sci-fi in the not to distant future so don’t worry about having to stick all your Star Wars and other 80’s space films in this genre… they will get their day!

I want to see all those films that predict how our lovely earth will supposedly be altered… well, by now in a lot of cases! Golly didn’t the year 2000 seem awfully exciting back then…

Remember: with the new poll you can vote for an existing film, as well as adding your own choice of film, and if you really think one of the other film suggestions is complete pap you can ‘bury’ it (which is like knocking one vote off). To cast your vote just click on the square to the right of the film title you want to vote for. Also - you can vote for every film if you care to, but only one vote per film. Just to help you out if you’re feeling torn!

The vote closes at 12pm, Friday 11th September.
