Shaun of the Dead Screening - Event
Sunday, August 29th @ 7:00PM, Denver Pavilions Theater
This is a VERY special screening of the UK film that will be attended by two of the movie's actors Simon Pegg and Nick Frost. Also the Director, Edgar Wright, will be staying after the screening for a Question and Answer session with the audience.

At last, a romantic zombie comedy! Already a smash hit in the U.K., the “rom zom com” follows the bloody funny adventures of underachiever Shaun and his best mate Ed, as they cope with the Zombie Day invasion of North London and attempt to rescue Shaun’s girlfriend Liz and his Mum, Barbara. It’s going to be one hell of a weekend. On Friday, Shaun is in a rut. At 29, he’s coasted through life – and still hasn’t gotten very far, usually winding up at the well-fortified local pub, the Winchester. Liz is re-evaluating their relationship, particularly after Shaun fails to do something special for their anniversary on Saturday. That day, there are TV news reports of unexplained calamities. These isolated incidents mushroom into a full-on zombie assault and it’s Sunday bloody Sunday. As manners and flesh take a beating, it’s time to separate men from meat, humans from zombies, and living from undead. Shaun and Ed grab whatever is at hand (cricket bat, shovel, LP) to repel the attacking zombies, summoning reserves of strength they didn’t know they possessed and straining muscles they forgot they had. Rounding up friends and family, they press on towards the sanctuary of the Winchester. All that stands (or lopes) in their way are hordes of the flesh-eating undead…

This movie is rated R. You must be at least 17 years of age to be eligible to play this quiz.

Code 46 Screening Quiz/Contest
Screening Thursday, August 19, 7:30PM
at The Chez Artist Theater, 2800 S Colorado Blvd., Denver CO
Code 46 is a love story set in an eerily possible near-future where cities are heavily controlled and only accessible through checkpoints. People cannot travel unless they have papelles a special travel insurance. Outside cities, the desert has taken over and shanty towns are jammed with non-citizens – people without papelles whose lives are severely restricted.

William is a family man who works as an insurance investigator. When his company sends him to another city to solve a case of fake papelles, he meets a woman named Maria. Although he knows she’s been creating the forgeries, he falls completely in love with her. He hides her crime and they have a wild, passionate affair that can only last as long as his papelles: 24 hours.
