I Shot Andy Warhol (1996) – Lili Taylor portrays the woman who tried to kill Andy Warhol in 1968. Directed by Mary Harron, the film is one of those underseen 90’s indie films featuring great performances and being rediscovered in 4K restoration screenings around the country.

Screens on Sunday July 5th

The American Astronaut (2001) – Very low budget, grainy black and white…. I remember this film being the sensation of Sundance and other film festivals that year. I honestly don’t remember much more than that. Celebrates a 25 year anniversary.

The Terminator (1984) – Screens on Tuesday July 7th

Coneheads (1992) – Alongside It’s Pat!, maybe the weirdest Saturday Night Live film offshoot?
