Parasite (1982)
Through our Virtual Screening Room, you can rent films curated by the Coolidge team, while helping to support the Coolidge during this unprecedented time.
In the future, cities are ravaged by atomic fallout and controlled by evil corporations that have developed a mutant pair of flesh-eating parasites. One is feeding inside the man who created it. The other has escaped. Now, with the help of a young woman left orphaned in the wasteland (Demi Moore), a scientist on the run (Robert Glaudini) must destroy these horrific creatures before they can reproduce. But the more a parasite feeds, the bigger it becomes. And the more it grows, the hungrier and angrier it gets.
Released to theaters as “The First Futuristic Monster Movie in 3-D,” this sick shocker co-stars rocker Cherie Currie, drive-in goddess Cheryl ‘Rainbeaux’ Smith, and Broadway legend Vivian Blaine, is directed by cult great Charles Band (Trancers, Blood Dolls), and features juicy creature effects by Academy Award-winner Stan Winston (The Terminator, Aliens).
Every film we offer will be available through the individual distributor's websites and streaming services. You'll be taken to their websites to purchase and watch the film, but a portion of your ticket will help support the Coolidge. Having technical issues? Visit our FAQ page here.
