Schedule of Events:

7:00 PM - Lifers: A Local H Movie; Dir. Scott Lucas; 2024 (82 min)

Scott Lucas of Local H will introduce the film and sign records after the screening next door at Terror Vision

Written and directed by the band’s singer/guitarist, Lifers documents a Local H show shot in real time during a gig at Chicago’s revered music venue, the Metro. Blending elements of a documentary and a concert film, Lifers captures the vibe and atmosphere of a Local H performance: energetic, funny, and a borderline psychedelic experience.

9:15 PM - Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story; Dir. Jake Kasdan; 2007 (96 min)

“You’re gonna have to give him a moment, son…Dewey Cox has to think about his entire life before he plays.” So begins this hilarious musical comedy parody starring John C. Reilly as a fictional early rock and roll pioneer, whose life includes borrowed elements from other notable musicians such as Johnny Cash, Ray Charles, Bob Dylan, and Brian Wilson.
