ON FRIDAY NIGHT, MAY 17th, hey, a movie! The Muppets get into all sorts of international intrigue when they pull off THE GREAT MUPPET CAPER (1981)!

We follow that Caper with Jim Henson’s visionary dark fantasy, THE DARK CRYSTAL (1982), a stunning feat of puppetry and production design. Another world, another time…in the age of wonder, two Elflings embark on a dangerous quest to take control from the evil Skeksis and restore order to their world.

ON SATURDAY NIGHT, MAY 18th, a 10th Anniversary screening! The Muppets once again find themselves embroiled in European jewel thievery, in MUPPETS MOST WANTED (2014) – this time finding a nemesis in dastardly Kermit doppelganger, Constantine!

Once the appropriate villains have been brought to justice, the party on the lot continues with Jim Henson’s musical fantasy LABYRINTH (1986)! Jennifer Connelly braves an otherworldly labyrinth, But can she do it before the midnight deadline?
