Deep Cuts is a celebration of the obscure, under appreciated, and underseen. Things we love: late 70s, early 90s, mid 2000s, camp, arthouse, vampires, women's right & wrongs, coming of age, non-horror horror movies, 15-20% on rotten tomatoes, not taking serious films seriously.

En route from New York City to Greece on New Year's Eve, majestic passenger ship the S.S. Poseidon is overtaken by a tidal wave. With the captain (Leslie Nielsen) dead, surviving passengers, including the passionate Rev. Scott (Gene Hackman), band together in the ship's ballroom. The group struggles to avert fires, flooding, structural instability and mechanical malfunctions as they make their way through a maze of ladders and tunnels in their desperate attempt to escape a watery grave.
"A masterclass of a disaster film filled with characters you care about, nail-biting suspense and some truly revolutionary special effects. The Poseidon Adventure has it all, folks." - Trace Thurman, Horror Queers Podcast
"Fifty years after its theatrical release, The Poseidon Adventure remains one of the gold standards in the disaster genre." - Danielle Solzman, Solzy at the Movies
"When reviewed, for the benefit of 21st century moviegoers, this is a rather silly but sweet disaster flick with a lot of camp appeal. When critiqued, to better understand cinema, this really is a mold-breaking master work"- Grant Watson, Fiction Machine
Tickets $12.65 ($12 at the door if available)
