Hi, looking to watch world classic movies with an interested group and discuss afterward (appreciate them or try to figure them out!) Room for about 10+ people in my apt. w/88" projector screen. Casual, fun, film buff group who can be articulate and listen.

Mondo Culto is a thriving, obsessive, and elaborate "be-in" for friends of Cult Films and the stepping to the punk beat of the East Village: Ass Juice at the Double Down, Karoake at Planet Rose, Cheese Fries at Crif Dogs, and Midnight Movies at the Landmark Sunshine Cinema are just some of the staples of La Vida Mondo Culto. So if you like living after midnight and rocking till the dawn, The Mondo Culto Experience is for you!

Cinema Heads is a movie group unlike the others; our goal is to view movies with a conscious. We enjoy screenings of films prior to their release dates.

Afterwards we gather for dinner and or refreshments to discuss the movie we just seen. You may also consider yourself a "Cinema Head" …

This is the group for movies so bad they're good. Does a one star Netflix rating intrigue you? Would you watch Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter simply because a movie with that title must be awesome? Does your list of cinematic classics include things like Barbarella, Zardoz, and Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus? More importantly, do you want to get together with a room full of people who just said "yes Yes YES" to the above, and spend hours making fun of horrible movies and laughing your ass off? I've b …
