 Saturday, October 21st, 11:59pm (midnite) The Orkly Kid – Directed by Trent Harris Containing: Crispin Glover, Elizabeth Daily 1984, 34 mins This half hour short film was made just before Back To The Future and is actually the grand finale of it’s own trilogy: The Beaver Trilogy. Salt Lake City filmmaker Trent Harris cast Crispin to re-enact a documentary he made a few years prior about an Olivia Newton-John impersonator who designs a talent show in his small town of Idaho, hoping to showcase his disco-diva performance.

Rubin & Ed – Directed by Trent Harris Containing: Crispin Glover, Howard Hesseman, Karen Black 1991, 82 mins  Crispin wanders across the Utah desert wearing bell-bottoms & 6 inch platform shoes, hoping to find the perfect place to bury his dead cat which he is carrying around in a cooler filled with ice. Did I mention his sidekick is Howard Hesseman from Head of the Class and WKRP in Cincinnati? Pure cult classic. And of course this is an extremely Rare 35mm screening! (Not on DVD)Sunday, October 22nd, 11:30am Back To The Future – Directed by Robert Zemeckis Containing: Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson, Crispin Glover 1985, 111 mins  George McFly is one of the all time greatest characters from the 1980s. And looking back on this film, which is over 20 years old, Crispin is even more convincing now when you realize that he is actually the main character of the film! Bring out your kids, grandmas, little brothers and older sisters to one of the greatest films ever made... from the 1980s!plays with...  1:40pm Bartleby – Directed by Jonathan Parker Containing: David Paymer, Crispin Glover, Joe Piscopo, Seymour Cassel 2001, 83 mins Dead-end jobs are brought to life by Crispin’s wonderful performance in this dead-on deconstruction of desk-jobs. Based on Herman Melville's existential short story, Bartleby questions society with the simple response, “I would prefer not to.” This overlooked gem is a perfect counterpiece to Willard, Crispin’s r.a.t. infested remake proving that this decade is definitely Crispin’s return. plays with... 3:15p Willard – Directed by Glen Morgan Containing: Crispin Glover, R. Lee Ermey, Laura Elena Harring (of Mulholland Drive) 2003, 100 mins, ‘SCOPE  Crispin takes the lead role in this horrifying remake about a man who after being fired by his cruel boss, finds revenge by calling upon his rodent friends, especially one big, fat rat, Ben. Crispin sheds real tears in this frighteningly disturbing flick. Plus he sings the closing credits song, “Ben”, originally written and performed by Michael Jackson! In Widescreen!

This supposed “final chapter” not only is the goriest film in the series, it’s also the best. A 13-year-old Corey takes on Jason Voorhees while Crispin does one of the greatest solo dance routines ever filmed. Special effects wizard Tom Savini returns to create the disturbingly gruesome murders and finally, we get to see Jason’s disfigured face. What more can you ask for? How about a reel of trailers preceeding the film, all of which have Crispin in them at some point!
