Most people of a certain age will instantly recognize the movie quote, “I want my two dollars!” It brings back recollections of madcap teen comedies filled with the likes of Molly Ringwald, Anthony Michael Hall, and of course John Cusack. Don’t miss your chance to take a stroll down memory lane this Thursday, April 5 when Cinemagic in Hooksett, NH holds a screening of Better Off Dead!
Don’t remember the iconic quote? Need to refresh your memory? Is it possible you’ve never seen the movie?!? Check out the trailer:
Better Off Dead was released in October of 1985, which means it will be 33 years old this fall. Want to see if the laughs you remember still hold up? Tickets are available online now! The movie starts at 8:00 pm, and tickets are $8.75 each. For more information and to purchase tickets, go to: http://www.cinemagicmovies.com/movie/27708/Better-Off-Dead

I have to say I’m excited about the idea of seeing The Last Unicorn on the big screen again! I saw it with Townie #2 a few years ago when Red River Theatres in Concord, NH hosted The Last Unicorn author Peter Beagle for a special screening. It was an honor to meet him!
I also have to say that seeing Excalibur on the big screen would be pretty awesome. What future Cult Classic movies are you excited about seeing?
