It's been a real party so far this year at The Adams Ave Theater, and we wanted to keep the good times rolling. For our 4/20 selection this year, there were a lot of directions we could have gone in. We figured sticking with the most lighthearted movie of all time about a stoner teen killing his parents and his best friends after his hand is possessed by the devil was the obvious path to take.

Rodman Flender's IDLE HANDS has always been an enigma to us, and that's exactly why it's remained one of our favorite films 25 years later. Its blend of the late-90s feel-good teen formula with body horror and seriously fucked-up subject matter is something you can toss around in your head for a very long time and never quite get a grip on completely. If you haven't seen it before, you're in for a real treat.

As we've encouraged you to do for a while now, please come dressed comfortably in your favorite sleepover attire or whatever floats your boat. We'd love to see some undead folks show up as well. Again, we will also have an open section for you to bring your own chairs or blankets too.

On 4/16, come kick your 4/20 celebration off with us as we celebrate one of the most underrated films of the 90s.

IDLE HANDS Synopsis:

Anton (Devon Sawa) would like very much to go about his daily routine of smoking weed, watching TV, and lusting after the girl across the street. The only thing stopping him is his demon-possessed right hand, which seems determined to kill anyone it encounters. After dropping his parents and his best friends, the hand sets its sights on Molly (Jessica Alba), the punk rock girl of Anton's affection. Luckily for him, Pnub and Mick (Elden Henson and Seth Green, his recently deceased buds) are back from below ground to help the problem get solved. But they better get cracking, because the hand is out for more than just a killing spree. If it gets its fingers on Molly before midnight on prom night, her soul is hell-bound.
