FernGully: The Last Rainforest

Just beyond your dreams lives a secret world. Where every tree is a home. Every sound is a song. And humans only exist in fairy tales. Until now…

Join us on Earth Day, April 22nd, as we present special screenings of FernGully: The Last Rainforest on a beautiful big screen for everyone to enjoy!

When a sprite named Crysta shrinks a human boy, Zak, down to her size, he vows to help the magical fairy folk stop a greedy logging company from destroying their home: the pristine rainforest known as FernGully. Zak and his new friends fight to defend FernGully from lumberjacks and the vengeful spirit they accidentally unleash after chopping down a magic tree.

Way before Avatar, this Don Bluth-esque animated rainforest romp warmed the hearts of kids everywhere with the voices of Christian Slater, Samantha Mathis, Tim Curry, Robin Williams, Cheech & Chong, Harry Shearer, Tone-Loc, Pamela Adlon, and even David Lynch favorite Grace Zabriskie. We’re delightfully buzzed to be playing a brand new DCP of this psychedelic ‘90s staple from our buds at Shout! Studios and American Genre Film Archive!

Santa Sangre: Presented by Mood Poison

Just added: Mood Poison is giving away a custom Santa Sangre pin to all ticket-holders coming to the Thursday night show!

Forget everything you have ever seen…

Santa Sangre is finally coming back to The Frida Cinema, and this time we are joined by our friends at Mood Poison, who will be selling a brand new, custom pin from the film as well as giving away exclusive prizes to lucky ticket-holders, all in celebration of their 10 year anniversary

The film is a tale of a young circus performer, the crime of passion that shatters his soul, and a macabre journey back to the world of his armless mother. 

Fifteen years after Alejandro Jodorowsky’s El Topo and The Holy Mountain unlocked our collective third eye, the legendary provocateur made his 1980s comeback with this staggering odyssey of ecstasy, anguish, belief, blasphemy, beauty, and madness.  The film continues to enrapture both Jodorowsky newbies and dedicated fans alike.
