October 20 at 4:15pm +8
Brooklyn Academy of Music · Fort Greene • $17
Ken Russell's once-banned provocation returns in a restored 4K director's vision. Oliver Reed and Vanessa Redgrave burn through this epic of obsession, corruption, and mass hysteria.
October 20 at 7:30pm +1
Spectacle · Williamsburg
A grieving firefighter digs up the wrong grave in this gloriously gnarly 1999 regional creature feature, newly restored and expanded with extra monster footage. Practical effects, backwoods folklore, and zero concern for pacing.
October 21 at 7pm +1
Brooklyn Art Haus · Williamsburg • $17.5-$35
Sweet transvestites, toast throwing, and the Time Warp: the cult classic screens with all its gloriously campy chaos. Costumes and audience participation aren't just welcomed, they're the whole point.
October 22 at 10pm
Spectacle · Williamsburg
A mad scientist's chemically reanimated corpse can only be soothed by song. This 1992 Hong Kong oddity pits Taoist priests against a superpowered hopping vampire, with Lam Ching-ying mugging through his most comedic undead showdown.
Oct. 23 & Oct. 29 at 7:30pm
Spectacle · Williamsburg
Grindhouse meets arthouse in Michael Findlay’s infamous "Flesh" trilogy, where graphic sexploitation is elevated by Roberta Findlay’s stunning black-and-white cinematography. Not for the faint of heart.

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.

Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
