• Chinese American Film Festival

    South Broadway Cultural Center

    A full afternoon-into-evening film program presented by the Chinese American Citizens Alliance Albuquerque Lodge, now in its tenth year at South Broadway Cultural Center on the corridor. That tenure matters: this is an organization that has been doing this long enough to know how to program a room, and South Broadway is a genuinely good...

  • Black + Queer on Screen at Guild Cinema

    Guild Cinema

    Black + Queer on Screen is a Way OUT West Film Fest program at Guild Cinema, with tickets routed through HoldMyTicket. The 90-minute runtime is the useful clue here. This should play more like a focused short block or tight program than a sprawling festival night.

  • Acting Like Women Film at Guild Cinema

    Guild Cinema

    Acting Like Women is a Way OUT West Film Fest screening at Guild Cinema, with tickets handled through HoldMyTicket rather than the door-only shuffle. The late slot at the Guild usually means a room that wants to be there, but Central parking can get weird after dark, so build in a few extra minutes.

  • Zona Rosa Film Screening at Guild Cinema

    Guild Cinema

    Zona Rosa screens at Guild Cinema as part of Way OUT West Film Fest. The late slot should draw the film-festival faithful rather than the casual Central Avenue wanderer, which usually makes for a better room at the Guild.

  • Labyrinth in Concert at KiMo Theatre, Route 66 Downtown

    Launchpad
    DowntownfilmTickets

    The 1986 Bowie-and-Muppets fantasy film screens at the KiMo with a live orchestra playing the score, which means you hear Trevor Jones and David Bowie's songs the way a theater this ornate was built to deliver them. Halloween night adds a cosplay energy that the KiMo's Pueblo Deco interior handles better than most rooms would....

  • Rocky Horror Anniversary Show

    Guild Cinema

    The Guild's fourteenth year running Rocky Horror on Halloween night, which at this point makes it less a screening and more a Central Avenue institution. The audience participation here runs deep, the kind of crowd that shows up in full costume with prop bags and knows every callback by heart. Tickets through Hold My Ticket,...

  • Reel Rock 20 at KiMo Theatre

    Kimo Theatre
    DowntownfilmDetails

    Stone Age Climbing Gym brings the 20th edition of Reel Rock to the KiMo, which means a full night of the year's best climbing films projected in one of the most architecturally wild movie houses in the Southwest. The KiMo's Pueblo Deco interior does something to a crowd, and the Stone Age connection usually draws...
