LOST BOYS…Tonight!

10 Jul

“One thing about living in Santa Carla I never could stomach, all the damn vampires” — Grandpa.

Lost Boys night is finally here, and the weather promises to be glorious down at Valentino Pier.

The Lost Boys starts screening at 8:30 p.m. (or as close to that as possible, depending on sundown). But before hand, we’ll be showing a few old Popeye cartoons courtesy of Sunny’s Bar.

Come hungry. Our sponsors, Fort Defiance and Dry Dock, are offering a Lost Boys-themed dinner; plus there’s popcorn from Home/Made and key lime tarts from Steve’s Key Lime Pies.

Just remember these few rules:

1. There is no bathroom on site. The nearest one is at Fairway. Plan accordingly.

2. No drinking. Really. The cops ticket.

3. No bikes on the lawn; lock them up on the fence.

3. Dogs are welcome, if quiet/on leash. (We don’t want to ask you to leave, but if your dog barks, we will.)

4. Lawn chairs only at back of lawn – don’t block people sitting on blankets.

Other than that, have fun with vampires that don’t sparkle.

Sponsor Photos Are Here!

28 Jun

Leisah Swenson and Monica Byrne sweeten up Home/Made.

Each year, Craig LaCourt shoots photographs of our sponsors so you can get to know them face-to-face. This year, he went for a heroic look and asked each person to bring something that is essential to his or her business. The results show both great portraiture and the amazing personalities of the people who stand behind Red Hook Flicks.

Above you see Leisah Swenson and Monica Byrne of Home/Made. Below is Susan Povich from the Red Hook Lobster Pound.

TONIGHT! Princess & the Frog

31 Aug


Get ready for some romance. Disney’s PRINCESS AND THE FROG is up on Tues., Aug. 31, brought to us by Fairway. It’s set in New Orleans, y’all. And that’s practically Red Hook’s sister city.

And no complaining that it’s a Disney movie: I’ve had grown men (yes, plural) tell me the love this flick.

Set up begins at 8 p.m.; film will roll at 8:30 p.m.

As always, Home/Made popcorn will be available for $1. (All proceeds support the film series.)
