Things To Check Out This Weekend (Aug 21) - Image 1

The Bloor Cinema keeps the awesomeness coming from the After Dark Film Festival last weekend with the 420 Film Festival this weekend. It all kicks off Saturday night at 9:20 with a new Canadian 20 minute long Silent Marijuana Western, scored with some funky vintage reefer tunes.  Following this there is a 1915 silent comedy (15 mins), then a 1909 “drug drama” (10 minutes), Bambi vs Godzilla (2 mins), many more random shorts and a performance by The 420 Band. In all, almost an hour and 40 minutes of  Weed related fun for only $10!

The second part of the festival starts at 11:30 Pm with BEYOND THE VALLEY OF THE TRAILERS. A 40 year collection of pre-1980 obscure, cult, horror and just random 35mm trailers played one after another. A new movie every 2 minutes!! Also includes another performance by The 420 Band. This is bound to be an amazing experience which I implore you all to check out. Again only $10 at the Bloor Cinema.

See you Saturday night!
