HOT FUZZTIVAL!
We couldn't be any more psyched about an event than we are about this one. In addition to an all-day and all-night marathon of classic cop movies, we'll also have director Edgar Wright and funniest-man-in-the-universe Nick Frost in the house! And to cap off the whole event, we'll have a special sneak preview screening of their new film HOT FUZZ, which does for the cop movie what their earlier SHAUN OF THE DEAD did for zombie movies.

The classic cop-movie lineup preceding HOT FUZZ includes four of Edgar's favorite cop films:

ELECTRA GLIDE IN BLUE
He's A Good Cop. On A Big Bike. On A Bad Road. Robert Blake stars as a very short Arizona motorcycle cop who becomes a very short homicide detective, as the moral compass of his fellow officers, and seemingly the whole world, spins out of control. Possibly the oddest cop movie ever made, and one of the most stunning.

SUDDEN IMPACT
Clint Eastwood vaulted "Dirty" Harry Callahan from icon to Demigod of Brutality with the most action-crammed entry in the series. See Harry and his impossibly enormous gun commit endless crimes in the name of the law, including homicide, murder, manslaughter, killing, assassination and many many more...all at a frantic, merciless pace that leaves no room for pesky obstacles like humanity or motivation. And if that's not enough, see Harry punch a female villain square in the kisser. Holy crow!

POLICE STORY 2
A whiplash-inducing Jackie Chan knockout! Multiple car chases, eyeball-peeling stunts and nigh-mortal injuries explode on screen. Consider it a complete primer to the most ass-kicking forms of police justice. Featuring self-destructive feats that Landed Jackie in the ER, and early daredevilry by Maggie Cheung.

FREEBIE AND THE BEAN James Caan and Alan Arkin are the two most likable fascist cops in the whole history of the cop movie. This film, by action director extraordinaire Richard Rush, features some of the most buck wild chase scenes you'll ever see, and a patented downbeat 70s ending that further confounds expectations.

...And as if this wasn't already the most cop-tacular event imaginable, we've also got a brain-ventilating assortment of classic 35mm trailers from all your favorite films that put the FORCE in "law enforcement"!
