Back to the Future

He's the only kid ever to get into trouble before he was born.

“You built a time machine…. Out of a DeLorean?”

Great Scott! We thought the time was right to to go back, way back, to 1985… And revisit Robert Zemeckis‘ original 80s classic, BACK TO THE FUTURE. But we’re not just screening the original BACK TO THE FUTURE… We’re also keeping it ramped at 88 and shifting gears for 2015 and then 1955 in BACK TO THE FUTURE PART II.

Michael J. Fox stars as Marty McFly, a typical suburban teenager (circa 1985) who accidentally travels back in time – to 1955! Cue an amazing soundtrack featuring Huey Lewis and the News, Doc Brown, some angry Libyans, the Enchantment Under the Sea dance, and the horror of getting to know your parents as… kids. (No further exposition necessary – you know the story!) Also starring Lea Thompson, Christopher Lloyd, and Crispin Glover.

Take some time to refuel and check your flux capacitator, and then…

In this zany sequel, time-traveling duo Marty McFly and Dr. Emmett Brown return from saving Marty’s future son from disaster, only to discover their own time transformed. In this nightmarish version of Hill Valley, Marty’s father has been murdered and Biff Tannen, Marty’s nemesis, has profited. After uncovering the secret to Biff’s success — a sports almanac from the future — Marty and the Doc embark on a quest to repair the space-time continuum.

BACK TO THE FUTURE Part II (Robert Zemeckis, 1989 / DCP / 108 mins / PG) | “Marty and Doc are at it again in this wacky sequel to the 1985 blockbuster as the time-traveling duo head to 2015 to nip some McFly family woes in the bud. But things go awry thanks to bully Biff Tannen and a pesky sports almanac. In a last-ditch attempt to set things straight, Marty finds himself bound for 1955 and face to face with his teenage parents — again.”
