MAY 31 & JUNE 3
BATMAN (1989)
Tim Burton’s blockbuster launched the Batman movie franchise and made “Batmania” a cultural phenomenon. Michael Keaton stars (“I’m Batman!”) and Kim Basinger is inquiring photo-journalist Vicki Vale. With original songs by Prince and a marvelously maniacal performance by Jack Nicholson (“Where does he get those wonderful toys?”) as the Joker (“I have given a name to my pain, and it is Batman.”) Rated PG-13. 126 minutes.

CLUELESS (1995)
Hit 90’s comedy about a “way-normal” teenager (Alicia Silverstone) growing up beautiful, popular and rich in Beverly Hills. She doesn’t date high school boys (“As IF!”) and hasn’t learned to park (“What’s the point? Everywhere you go has valet.”). And ex-stepbrother Paul Rudd is “kind of a Baldwin.” Modern re-telling of Jane Austen’s Emma, with dialogue that is way-quotable. (“He does dress better than I do… what would I bring to the relationship?”) Rated PG-13. 97 minutes.

EVIL DEAD 2 (1987)
A young Sam Raimi co-wrote and directed this indie cult classic of the horror comedy genre, widely considered to be the best of the Evil Dead franchise. While walking in the woods, Ash (Bruce Campbell) and his girlfriend stumble upon a mysterious cabin with a dark secret. Soon Ash is tormented by demons (“Gimme back my hand!”) and there’s an absurd amount of blood and gore, with a healthy dose of slapstick humor. (“Who’s laughing now?”) Rated R.
JUNE 20-21 & 24
RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK (1981)
Celebrate Father’s Day with this non-stop adventure, directed by Steven Spielberg, based on an idea from George Lucas. Archeologist and action hero Indiana Jones (“Trust me”) is in a race to find the mysterious lost Ark of the Covenant. The Ark is said to contain enormous power, and “Indy” (Harrison Ford) and Marion (Karen Allen) must find it before the Nazis do. (“Snakes. Why’d it have to be snakes?”) Rated PG.
JUNE 27-28 & JULY 1
SPACEBALLS (1987)
Celebrate funnyman Mel Brooks’ 100th Birthday with this affectionate spoof of Star Wars. Space mercenary Captain Lone Starr (Bill Pullman) battles the diabolical Dark Helmut (Rick Moranis) (“I am your father’s brother’s nephew’s cousin’s former roommate!”) while John Candy is the half man, half dog Barf (“I am my own best friend!”) Brooks plays two roles: the incompetent President Skroob and the Yiddish-speaking wiseman Yogurt. (“May the Schwartz be with you!”) Rated PG.
