SUMMARY:The Brown Bunny
DESCRIPTION:Due to graphic content\, no one under 18 will be permitted to this film. \nThe Brown Bunny is both a love story and a haunting portrait of a lost soul unable to forget his past. After finishing a motorcycle race in New Hampshire\, Bud Clay (Vincent Gallo\, Buffalo 66) loads his racing bike into the back of his van and begins a cross-country odyssey to Los Angeles\, where he is to compete in another race. During his trip\, he meets three very different women: Violet\, a wholesome all-American gas station attendant; Lilly (Supermodel Cheryl Tiegs)\, a fellow lost soul he connects with at a highway rest stop; and Rose\, a Las Vegas prostitute. Throughout his journey\, Bud can never escape his intense feelings for the love of his life\, Daisy (Chloë Sevigny\, Kids\, Boys Don’t Cry)\, so he plans to reconcile with her when he reaches Los Angeles. Arriving in Los Angeles\, Bud checks into a motel before visiting the abandoned home he once shared with Daisy. He leaves a note\, hoping she will turn up at his motel room . . .Building to a notorious climax\, the film presents one of the frankest portrayals of male sexuality ever seen in American cinema.

SUMMARY:The Wolf House
DESCRIPTION:Combining stop-motion\, painting\, and photography\, this exquisitely handcrafted animation tells the story of Maria\, a young woman who finds refuge in a house in the south of Chile after escaping from a sect of German religious fanatics. She is welcomed into the home by two pigs\, the only inhabitants of the place. Like in a dream\, the universe of the house reacts to Maria’s feelings. The animals transform slowly into humans and the house becomes a nightmarish world. \nInspired on the actual case of Colonia Dignidad\, “The Wolf House” masquerades as an animated fairy tale produced by the leader of the sect in order to indoctrinate its followers. It’s film of constant disorienting transformations and smothering claustrophobia\, showing the spirit of unsettling experimental animation found in the works of the Brothers Quay\, Walerian Borowczyk\, Jan Lenica\, and Jan Švankmajer is alive and well. \nFreaky Fridays ticket prices include a free popcorn and soda or lemonade for all attendees! Alcohol can be purchased at Eden Bar. Regular food service will not be available for Freaky Friday events. So\, come early\, and fuel up outside for the night ahead!

SUMMARY:La Haine
DESCRIPTION:Enzian Film Club: Summer School Edition\nSummer school is in session! Our Enzian Film Club professors are on a well-deserved vacation\, but you’ve still got a lot to learn. Join us June–August for screenings and talkbacks with Enzian programmers and community guests\, and keep your brain (or at least your social skills) sharp until our return to class in September. It might not be Driver’s Ed\, but it’s better than independent study. \n30th Anniversary Screening! \nMathieu Kassovitz took the film world by storm with La Haine\, a gritty\, unsettling\, and visually explosive look at the racial and cultural volatility in modern-day France\, specifically the low-income banlieue districts on Paris’s outskirts. Aimlessly passing their days in the concrete environs of their dead-end suburbia\, Vinz (Vincent Cassel)\, Hubert (Hubert Koundé)\, and Saïd (Saïd Taghmaoui)—a Jew\, an African\, and an Arab—give human faces to France’s immigrant populations\, their bristling resentment at their marginalization slowly simmering until it reaches a climactic boiling point. A work of tough beauty\, La haine is a landmark of contemporary French cinema and a gripping reflection of its country’s ongoing identity crisis.

SUMMARY:DEVO
DESCRIPTION:Explore Devo‘s 50-year career through never-before-seen archival and interviews with co-founders Mark Mothersbaugh and Jerry Casale.

SUMMARY:Alien - Director's Cut (4K Restoration)
DESCRIPTION:Guest programmed by Ryan Beesmer\, winner of our “Programmer for a Day” Grand Prize! Ryan won the opportunity to program a film at the theater during our 40th Anniversary Casino Royale Gala. We thank him for his passionate support of our beloved art house cinema \n“My mother was a huge nerd for Sci-Fi movies and introduced me to Alien when I was probably too young. Everyone remembers seeing the chest burster scene for the first time. I was excited to pick this movie because of its place in Sci-Fi history but also because of its importance in my relationship with my mom.” – Ryan Beesmer \nThis landmark science fiction film follows the crew of the commercial spaceship Nostromo as they respond to a distress signal on a desolate planet and unknowingly bring aboard a deadly extraterrestrial creature that begins to hunt them one by one. \nSigourney Weaver (in her first starring role) is Ellen Ripley\, whose strong and resourceful performance broke new ground for female protagonists in action and sci-fi films. Celebrated for blending science fiction with horror in a way that redefined both genres\, its minimalist suspense\, claustrophobic setting\, and slow-building terror set a new standard for cinematic storytelling and visual effects in genre filmmaking (including the instantly iconic creature design by H.R. Giger). More than 45-years later\, the film’s influence can be traced across decades of movies\, video games\, and literature\, as it launched one of the most enduring franchises in film history.

SUMMARY:The Black Cauldron
DESCRIPTION:35mm Screening! 40th Anniversary! \nCome witness the film that changed Disney history. \nDisney’s most daring and controversial animated feature—a gothic\, sword-and-sorcery epic unlike anything the studio had made before\, or since. \nFantasy\, magic and fun are all brewed together in this legendary adventure. Whoever releases the mysterious Black Cauldron’s power will be invincible. The fearsome Horned King will do anything to possess it\, but he is challenged by the most unlikely adversary: a young assistant pig keeper named Taran\, who dreams of doing heroic deeds. With a motley team including the brave Princess Eilonwy\, a minstrel named Fflewddur Fflam and Hen Wen\, a remarkable pig who can predict the future\, Taran embarks on a quest to stop the Black Cauldron’s evil once and for all. Will he have the courage to succeed? \nInfamous for nearly sinking Disney Animation in the ‘80s\, and partially censored before release\, The Black Cauldron was the first Disney animated film to earn a PG rating and is often cited as the studio’s boldest experiment. Join us for a rare chance to see this dark gem as it was meant to be seen: on 35mm\, larger than life\, and straight from the cauldron’s bubbling depths.

SUMMARY:Tangerine
DESCRIPTION:10th Anniversary! \nIncludes an exclusive recorded Q&A with Academy Award-winning filmmakers Sean Baker and Samantha Quan (Anora\, The Florida Project) in celebration of Art House Theater Day. \nSet in Los Angeles\, Sean Baker’s award-winning Tangerine follows transgender sex worker Sin-Dee Rella as she discovers her boyfriend has been cheating on her. Alongside her friend Alexandra\, she traverses the streets of Hollywood on Christmas Eve in a gritty\, fast-paced search for answers and revenge. \nNotable for its raw realism\, vibrant energy\, and groundbreaking use of the iPhone 5s as its primary camera\, Tangerine is widely regarded as a landmark in independent cinema for both its technical innovation and representation of trans characters portrayed by trans actors. It helped launch broader conversations about diversity in film and demonstrated the potential of low-budget digital filmmaking. The film is credited with helping to increase visibility for trans performers\, particularly its stars Kitana Kiki Rodriguez and Mya Taylor\, the latter of whom became the first openly transgender actress to win a major film award (Independent Spirit Award for Best Supporting Female).

SUMMARY:Love & Mercy
DESCRIPTION:Brian Wilson Tribute Film! \nA bold and deeply affecting portrait of Beach Boys genius Brian Wilson\, told through two interwoven timelines. Paul Dano (There Will Be Blood) portrays the young\, tortured prodigy during the 1960s Pet Sounds era\, while John Cusack (Say Anything) plays an older Wilson in the 1980s\, battling mental illness and under the controversial care of Dr. Eugene Landy (Paul Giamatti). Directed by Bill Pohlad\, Love & Mercy avoids the clichés of typical music biopics\, offering instead an acclaimed\, intimate\, empathetic exploration of creativity\, vulnerability\, and healing—set to one of the most iconic soundtracks in American music history. \nBrian Wilson (1942 – 2025) was the visionary genius behind The Beach Boys’ iconic sound—a composer\, producer\, and arranger whose lush harmonies and studio wizardry redefined American pop music. The mastermind of Pet Sounds Wilson fused teenage surf culture with wall-of-sound ambition\, pushing the boundaries of what a pop record could be. Though his career was marked by profound personal challenges\, his influence is immeasurable\, earning him status as one of the most groundbreaking artists of the 20th century.  Join us as we celebrate the life and times of an American original.

SUMMARY:Shogun Assassin
DESCRIPTION:45th Anniversary! \nThe legendary midnight movie sensation that firmly embedded samurai mythology within American pop culture consciousness\, this English-dubbed reedit of the first two films in the classic Japanese chanbara series Lone Wolf and Cub is a giddily entertaining\, mesmerizingly gory classic of East-meets-West grindhouse mayhem. \nFollowing the murder of his wife at the hands of an evil shogun\, an avenging ronin (Tomisaburo Wakayama) roams the countryside with his young son—and the boy’s sword-shooting baby carriage—in tow\, dispatching ninja assassins with steely resolve in operatically stylized flurries of hallucinatory violence. With its pulsing synth soundtrack (cowritten by Mark Lindsay of Paul Revere & the Raiders) and delirious action set pieces—kinetically edited whirlwinds of flashing blades\, spurting blood\, and severed limbs—Shogun Assassin proved an instant cult favorite that has bubbled its way up from the underground to the mainstream thanks to its influence on artists ranging from the Wu-Tang Clan to Quentin Tarantino. \nFreaky Fridays ticket prices include a free popcorn and soda or lemonade for all attendees! Alcohol can be purchased at Eden Bar. Regular food service will not be available for Freaky Friday events. So\, come early\, and fuel up outside for the night ahead!

SUMMARY:Stalker
DESCRIPTION:Enzian Film Club: Summer School Edition\nSummer school is in session! Our Enzian Film Club professors are on a well-deserved vacation\, but you’ve still got a lot to learn. Join us June–August for screenings and talkbacks with Enzian programmers and community guests\, and keep your brain (or at least your social skills) sharp until our return to class in September. It might not be Driver’s Ed\, but it’s better than independent study. \nOne of the most immersive and rarefied experiences in the history of cinema\, Andrei Tarkovsky’s Stalker embarks on a metaphysical journey through an enigmatic post-apocalyptic landscape. A hired guide—the “Stalker” of the title—leads a writer and a scientist into the heart of the Zone\, the restricted site of a long-ago disaster\, where the three men eventually zero in on the Room\, a place rumored to fulfill one’s most deeply held desires. \nAdapting a science-fiction novel by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky\, and making what would be his final Soviet feature\, Tarkovsky created a challenging and visually stunning work\, his painstaking attention to material detail and sense of organic atmosphere further enriched by this vivid new digital restoration. At once a religious allegory\, a reflection of contemporary political anxieties\, and a meditation on film itself—among many other interpretations—Stalker envelops the viewer by opening up a multitude of possible meanings.

SUMMARY:Female Trouble
DESCRIPTION:Due to graphic content\, no one under 18 will be permitted to this film. \nGlamour has never been more grotesque than in Female Trouble\, which injects the Hollywood melodrama with anarchic decadence. Divine\, director John Waters’ larger-than-life muse\, engulfs the screen with charisma as Dawn Davenport\, the living embodiment of the film’s lurid mantra\, “Crime is beauty\,” who progresses from a teenage nightmare hell-bent on getting cha-cha heels for Christmas to a fame monster whose egomaniacal impulses land her in the electric chair. \nShot in Waters’ native Baltimore on 16 mm\, with a cast drawn from his beloved troupe of regulars\, the Dreamlanders (including Mink Stole\, David Lochary\, Mary Vivian Pearce\, Edith Massey\, and Cookie Mueller)\, this film­—the director’s favorite of his work with Divine—comes to life through the tinsel-toned vision of production designer Vincent Peranio and costume designer/makeup artist Van Smith. An endlessly quotable fan favorite\, Female Trouble offers up perverse pleasures that never fail to satisfy.

SUMMARY:13 Assassins
DESCRIPTION:35mm Screening! \nSet in 1844 during the final years of the Edo period\, the film follows Shinzaemon Shimada (Kôji Yakusho\, Cure\, Pulse)\, a seasoned and honorable samurai who is tasked with a covert mission: to assassinate Lord Naritsugu Matsudaira\, the sadistic younger brother of the Shogun. Naritsugu’s ruthless behavior and unchecked power threaten the stability of the shogunate. To prevent future chaos\, Shinzaemon recruits twelve other samurai to form a death squad. Together\, the thirteen warriors prepare for a final\, explosive ambush in a remote village\, culminating in a climactic 45-minute battle sequence! \n13 Assassins received widespread acclaim for its direction\, performances\, and especially its brutal\, meticulously choreographed action. A remake of the 1963 film of the same name by Eiichi Kudo\, it is considered one of maverick director Takashi Miike’s (Audition) most accessible and critically respected works\, marking a departure from his usual horror and avant-garde style into a more classical narrative while sacrificing none of his operatic staging.

SUMMARY:Heartworn Highways
DESCRIPTION:New Restoration! \nIn the mid-‘70s\, filmmaker James Szalapski documented the then-nascent music movement that would become known as “outlaw country.” Inspired\, in part\, by newly-long-haired Willie Nelson’s embrace of hippie attitudes and audiences\, a younger generation of artists including Townes Van Zandt\, David Allan Coe\, Steve Earle\, Charlie Daniels and Guy Clark popularized and developed the outlaw sound. It borrowed from rock\, folk and bluegrass\, with an edge that was missing from mainstream Nashville country. \nMusical highlights include Clark’s brilliant “Desperados Waiting for a Train” and Van Zandt’s emotional “Pancho & Lefty”.  The hard living—and hard partying—lifestyles of outlaw country’s figureheads are played out on screen as we visit Van Zandt’s Austin trailer\, see Coe play in Tennessee State Prison\, join the gang in Nashville’s notorious Wig Wam Tavern and witness a liquor-fueled Christmas at Clark’s house. No wonder the film’s original tagline read: “The best music and the best whiskey come from the same part of the country.” \nThis newly restored edition includes rarely captured performances of the aforementioned musicians as they perfected this then-new style and helped change the course of country music history.

SUMMARY:Mind Game
DESCRIPTION:Screening as part of “Animation August“!\n \nThese are not your childhood cartoons. Celebrate some of the boldest and most visionary works in modern animation during Animation August at Enzian! \nLaunching the program is 2-time Academy Award® nominee Don Hertzfeldt’s World of Tomorrow Trilogy (2016–2020)\, a profound and darkly funny meditation on memory\, technology\, and the fragility of the human experience. From Japan\, Masaaki Yuasa’s Mind Game (2004) explodes onto the screen with fever-dream energy and unrestrained psychedelic imagination\, pushing animation’s limits in both form and philosophy. Rounding out the lineup is Sanatorium Under the Sign of the Hourglass (2024). 20 years in the making\, this haunting new dreamscape from the Brothers Quay—masters of stop-motion surrealism—is a gothic\, ghostly descent into the subconscious. Join us for a collection of films that promise to challenge\, mesmerize\, and linger long after the credits roll. Please note\, this animation program is not intended for children and contains adult themes and content. \nMind Game: \nLoser Nishi\, too wimpy to try to save his childhood sweetheart from gangsters\, is shot by a soccer-playing psychopath and projected into the afterlife. In this limbo\, God – shown as a series of rapidly changing characters – tells him to walk toward the light. But Nishi runs like hell in the other direction and returns to Earth a changed man\, driven to live each moment to the fullest. An exhilarating and wildly entertaining ride\, this mind-bending and unconstrained cult classic is the feature film debut from director Masaaki Yuasa (NIGHT IS SHORT\, WALK ON GIRL and DEVILMAN CRYBABY). \nAbout Masaaki Yuasa: Widely regarded as one of the most imaginative and influential filmmakers working in animation\, celebrated Japanese director Masaaki Yuasa is one of contemporary anime’s most prolific auteurs. His energetic and boundary-pushing style has lent his humor and dynamism to genres as diverse as psychedelic thrillers\, transcendent rock-operas and sweetly subversive teen romances. Since his groundbreaking debut with Mind Game in 2004\, he has consistently pushed the artistic potential of animation. His previous studio Science Saru\, which he co-founded in 2013\, produced hits such as “Devilman Crybaby\,” “Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken!” and Netflix’s “Scott Pilgrim Takes Off.” Yuasa has gone on to direct episodes of Adventure Time\, the Annecy Award-winning Lu Over the Wall (2017)\, and the Golden Globe-nominated Inu-Oh (2021).

SUMMARY:Emma (1996)
DESCRIPTION:2025 marks the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen’s birth. In honor of this literary giant\, Enzian Theater and the Winter Park Library will celebrate with “A Year with Jane Austen”. Scheduled throughout the year\, The Winter Park Library will read each of Austen’s six novels as well as screen various adaptations of the accompanying films and miniseries at both the Library and at Enzian Theater. \nWelcome to a time where Empire-waisted wit is sharp\, and love is found in the most unexpected of places! Where the art of conversation is as important as the plot itself—often more so—and the pursuit of happiness is a delicate dance of propriety and passion. With our special “A Year with Austen” series\, you can sit back\, sip your tea\, and enjoy a romp through a pastoral landscape\, where everyone may be too proud or too prejudiced\, but they’re always too fabulous to resist! \nEmma: \nIn this adaptation of Jane Austen’s classic novel\, pretty socialite Emma Woodhouse (Gwyneth Paltrow) entertains herself by playing matchmaker for those around her. Her latest “project” is Harriet Smith\, an unpretentious debutant\, while Emma herself receives the attentions of the dashing Frank Churchill (Ewan McGregor). However\, Emma’s attempts at matchmaking cause more problems than solutions and may ultimately jeopardize her own chance at love and happiness. \nWith an all-star cast including Toni Collette\, Alan Cumming\, Jeremy Northam and Greta Scacchi\, Academy Award®–nominee Douglas McGrath (Bullets Over Broadway) has crafted\, along with Sense and Sensibility the greatest Austen adaptation of the 1990s. \n

SUMMARY:Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown
DESCRIPTION:35mm Screening! \nThe breakout international hit that propelled Spanish auteur Pedro Almodóvar to global fame\, Women on the Verge of Nervous Breakdown is a wild\, vibrant farce tinged with heartbreak. The film follows actress Pepa Marcos (Carmen Maura) as her life unravels after being abruptly dumped by her lover. With its madcap pacing\, surreal humor\, and stylish flair\, the film became a defining work of post-Franco Spanish cinema—boldly exploring themes of female desire\, emotional instability\, and independence. \n“Women on the Verge” also sparked controversy upon release. Its candid depiction of women’s mental health\, sexuality\, and tranquilizer use challenged more conservative audiences and critics. In Spain\, the film both scandalized and thrilled a society still adjusting to democratic freedoms\, while abroad\, it introduced Almodóvar’s unapologetically eccentric and feminist lens to a wider audience. \nQLatinx will be in attendance and tabling in the lobby!

SUMMARY:The Short Films of Marie Menken
DESCRIPTION:All free La CinOMAthéque screenings will take place in the Truist Auditorium at the Orlando Museum of Art. \nACCESS FOR ALL AT OMA presents: \nLa CinOMAthéque: A collaboration between OMA and Enzian\, with generous support provided by the Art Bridges Foundation’s Access for All program. \nThe Orlando Museum of Art is thrilled to announce the launch of La CinOMAthéque in partnership with the Enzian Theater\, as part of its “Access for All at OMA\,” an all-new program offering FREE admission to the museum! \nAccess for All at OMA is a monthly free day dedicated to the community. La CinOMAthéque will be a series of 6 bimonthly free screenings of experimental\, avant-garde\, art films in the Truist auditorium at OMA on Access for All day. \nEach screening will be introduced by a UCF film professor and include a talkback with OMA Chief Curator Coralie Claeysen-Gleyzon and Enzian Programming Manager Tim Anderson. \n  \nThe Short Films of Marie Menken: \nMarie Menken (1910-1970) is the unsung heroine of the American avant-garde cinema. A mentor\, muse and major influence for such key experimental filmmakers as Kenneth Anger\, Stan Brakhage\, Jonas Mekas and Andy Warhol\, Menken created an extraordinary body of exuberant and stunningly beautiful films shaped\, above all\, by her intuitive understanding of handheld cinematography. Beginning with her celebrated first film\, Visual Variations on Noguchi (1945)\, Menken used the hand-cranked Bolex camera favored by avant-garde filmmakers to introduce a new agility\, grace and spontaneity into experimental cinema\, a lightness of camera and form hitherto unseen in American film. With Noguchi\, Menken also began a spirited dialogue between cinema and the plastic and painterly arts that extends across her films in a witty yet deeply insightful exploration of the formal language and methodology specific to those schools and painters with whom Menken was close – from the Abstract Expressionist drip painting humorously critiqued in Drips in Strips (1963)\, to the factory production of Pop art in the revelatory Andy Warhol (1964) and the Fluxus practice of Robert Watts in Watts with Eggs (1967).  \nFeaturing:\nWatts with Eggs (1967\, 2.5 min)\nWrestling (1964\, 8 min)\nVisual Variations on Noguchi (1945\, 4 min)\nNotebook (1962\, 10 min)\nLights (1966\, 6.5 min)\nGo Go Go!

SUMMARY:Sanatorium Under the Sign of the Hourglass
DESCRIPTION:Screening as part of “Animation August“!\n \nThese are not your childhood cartoons. Celebrate some of the boldest and most visionary works in modern animation during Animation August at Enzian! \nLaunching the program is 2-time Academy Award® nominee Don Hertzfeldt’s World of Tomorrow Trilogy (2016–2020)\, a profound and darkly funny meditation on memory\, technology\, and the fragility of the human experience. From Japan\, Masaaki Yuasa’s Mind Game (2004) explodes onto the screen with fever-dream energy and unrestrained psychedelic imagination\, pushing animation’s limits in both form and philosophy. Rounding out the lineup is Sanatorium Under the Sign of the Hourglass (2024). 20 years in the making\, this haunting new dreamscape from the Brothers Quay—masters of stop-motion surrealism—is a gothic\, ghostly descent into the subconscious. Join us for a collection of films that promise to challenge\, mesmerize\, and linger long after the credits roll. Please note\, this animation program is not intended for children and contains adult themes and content. \nUnleash your inner “Ani-Maniac” and see all three films with a discounted series pass! \nSanitorium Under the Sign of the Hourglass: \nProduced and presented by Christopher Nolan. In their first feature in 20 years\, Stephen and Timothy Quay return to adapt the work of Polish writer Bruno Schulz with a mixture of stop motion puppetry and live action. A ghostly train journey on a forgotten branch line transports a son\, Jozef\, visiting his dying Father in a remote Galician Sanatorium. Upon arrival\, Jozef finds the Sanatorium entirely moribund and run by a dubious Doctor Gotard\, who tells him that his father’s death\, the death that has struck him in his country\, has not yet occurred and that here they are always late by a certain interval of time of which the length cannot be defined. Jozef will come to realize that the Sanatorium is a floating world halfway between sleep and wakefulness and that time and events cannot be measured in any tangible form. \nAbout the Quay Brothers: Identical twins Stephen Quay and Timothy Quay\, known as the Brothers Quay\, are two of the most distinct filmmakers of our time. Their stop-motion animations have introduced a generation of viewers to a lyrical darkness not often associated with animation. Influenced by Central and Eastern European artists and writers like Walerian Borowczyk\, Jan Švankmajer and Franz Kafka\, their work creates haunting\, miniature worlds of uncanny puppets and atmospheric detail that reflects the dark psychology resulting from a century of industrial warfare\, surrealist art\, and dialectical politics.

SUMMARY:Arrebato (Rapture)
DESCRIPTION:4K restoration! \nARREBATO’s dimension-shattering blend of heroin\, sex\, and Super-8 is the final word in cinemania. \nHorror movie director José (Eusebio Poncela\, Matador) is adrift in a sea of doubt and drugs. As his belated second feature nears completion\, his reclusive bubble is popped by two events: a sudden reappearance from an ex-girlfriend (Cecilia Roth\, All About My Mother) and a package from past acquaintance Pedro: a reel of Super-8 film\, an audiotape\, and a door key. From there\, the boundaries of time\, space\, and sexuality are erased as José is once more sucked into Pedro’s vampiric orbit. Together\, they attempt the ultimate hallucinogenic catharsis through a moebius strip of filming and being filmed. \nLong unavailable internationally\, Arrebato has since been rediscovered as a cult masterpiece — a queer-coded\, avant-garde horror tale often described as Spain’s answer to Videodrome or Eraserhead. Legendary director Pedro Almodóvar has cited it as a major influence\, and its reputation has continued to grow for those drawn to the darker\, drug-fueled edges of cinematic obsession. \nFreaky Fridays ticket prices include a free popcorn and soda or lemonade for all attendees! Alcohol can be purchased at Eden Bar. Regular food service will not be available for Freaky Friday events. So\, come early\, and fuel up outside for the night ahead!
