Not only is Mr. Cupcakes himself here in person to host and inspire movie-related mischief, he also comes armed with groovy limited edition Tees to sell that are made just for each show -- get 'em while they're hot!

With their neighborhood in danger of being bulldozed and turned into a golf course, a plucky group of misfit kids set out to save their beloved 'hood in the most logical way possible: by embarking on a quest to find lost pirate treasure, naturally. Of course the path to the loot is paved with perils, including a host of imaginative booby traps, awkward adolescent moments, and a band of bumbling crooks out to claim the treasure for themselves. Yup, it's pretty hard not to love this Spielberg-penned swashbuckling family adventure from start to finish. But just in case you needed one more reason: the incomparable Corey Feldman as Clark "Mouth" Devereaux. 1985, dir. Richard Donner, 1h54m

"The Room is the Citizen Kane of bad movies.'' - Ross Morin, assistant professor of film studies at St. Cloud State University in Minnesota.

For the past five years, a Los Angeles billboard has perpetually and ominously promoted a film simply titled: THE ROOM. Those who could no longer stand the suspense and actually sought out screenings of this film have been exposed to what some people are saying is the greatest midnite movie since THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW.

Midnite crowds have flocked to attend this show due to it's "so amazingly bad it's 'effing great" charms. In recent years, some of Hollywood's most talented have counted themselves being in the cult of THE ROOM. Paul Rudd, David Cross and Jonah Hill catch the film whenever they can.

THE ROOM's director, producer and leading man is the mysterious Tommy Wiseau. In the film, Tommy portrays "Johnny", a man who becomes involved in a love triangle when the woman he loves begins sleeping with another man. Johnny is also the mentor of a drug dealing man child, a dog aficionado and possesses an alarmingly unnerving giggle.

Kept as a L.A. secret for half of a decade, THE ROOM has now found its way to the east coast and we here at the Coolidge are proud to present it in all its baffling glory.

But don't just take our word for it, check out what EW and The Onion have to say about the strange new phenomenon of THE ROOM:

PEE WEE'S BIG ADVENTURE

"I know you are, but what am I?"

This classic story about a rebel and his bicycle is one that sticks with us like scotch tape on the face. When Pee Wee's beloved mode of transportation is stolen, he embarks on a cross-country odyssey that pits him against drunken bikers, child actors, a trucker named Large Marge, angry husbands and even Godzilla himself! The success of this film made it possible for Pee Wee to move into his wonderfully demented Playhouse, where he made us laugh at jokes we wouldn't fully understand until adulthood. See this big adventure as it was meant to be seen, on the Coolidge's big screen!
