This months meeting of The Arkham Film Society is our first
ever tribute to Lucha Libre films on Monday August 27th. We will be
screening Las Momias De Guanajuato (The Mummies of Guanajuato – 1972), a
classic Mexican wrestling / horror
themed film in which wrestling stars Santo, The Blue Demon, and Mil Mascaras
have to join forces to save a town from rampaging mummies. As an added bonus
this film will be followed by an hour long documentary about Lucha Libre and
its impact on Mexican society. It goes without saying that costumes are
encouraged.
The screening is Monday August 27th, 7:30 pm
doors with an 8:00pm showtime and a $5.00 admission. Screening will be held at
the 95 Empire Black Box, 95 Empire Street, Providence. Plus the first three
people who color our flyer can exchange their colored flyer for free admmission,
extra flyers can be obtained from our sponsors!
