Grindhouse Weekend

For those of you who weren't able to attend the ridiculously fun sold-out premiere of Grindhouse at the Paramount last Wednesday, this weekend offers a couple fun treats.

Thanks to the intercession of Quentin Tarantino himself, the Alamo South Lamar has been given permission to hold a late-night screening of the film this Thursday April 5th at 11pm. Tickets are going to go fast, so if you're planning on getting 'em, you should probably do it now.

But if you ask us, the best way to see this film will be at the Grindhouse All-night Thrillshow being held at the Alamo Downtown this coming Saturday. This all-night movie marathon will feature four genuine grindhouse exploitation features (The Boss, Revenge of the Cheerleaders, The Losers and Poor Pretty Eddie) followed by a screening of Grindhouse. That's an obscene amount of cinematic awesomeness for one evening.

We will definitely be at the marathon. Besides the fact that Alamo marathons are always a hell of a lot of fun, this is also one of the last major events being held at the Alamo's current downtown location--so soak it up while you can, movie nerds.
