LAKEPORT >> The GenX Cinema series presents a double feature celebrating 1980s film classics with “Police Academy” and “Revenge of the Nerds” screening tomorrow, June 16 at 7 p.m. at the Soper Reese Theatre in Lakeport.
Entry is by donation. No host beer bar will be open and additional refreshments will be on sale at the concession stand including popcorn and candy.
The 1984 comedy, “Police Academy,” is directed by Hugh Wilson, and stars Steve Guttenberg and Kim Cattrall. So dopey and sophomoric you can’t help but love it. In fact, this film spawned six sequels and an animated TV series. This film is fated R, with a run time of 1 hour and 36 minutes.
Undeniably lowbrow but surprisingly sly, “Revenge of the Nerds” (1984) has enough big laughs to qualify as a classic in the slobs-vs.-snobs subgenre. Rated R, this film has a run time of 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Both films are sponsored by Valenzuela Tire & Wheel and by The Nerd Cave. The Soper Reese Theatre is located at 275 S. Main St., Lakeport, 707-263-0577, soperreesetheatre.com.
