CICADA CINEMAS PRESENT:
Black Tight Killers (1966)

7PM
TICKETS $7

Synopsis: Welcome to your new favorite pop-art explosion. Stewardess Yoriko is kidnapped by a team of deadly female assassins who use vinyl records as weapons. Now, it's up to photographer Hondo to uncover the conspiracy while dealing with go-go dancing ninjas and bullets made of chewing gum. The bubblegum reference isn't a coincidence—BLACK TIGHT KILLERS is an ultra-stylish, candy-coated amusement park ride in the form of a movie. This overlooked crime-noir delight shares the visual inventiveness of Mario Bava's DANGER: DIABOLIK and the pulp thrills of Seijun Suzuki's TOKYO DRIFTER. An essential big screen experience.

*In partnership with The Orbit Room, The American Genre Film Archive and Vulture Video, our Cicada Underground series comes from the ethos that while as imperfect as the people who made them, genre films deserved to be screened to both enrich our lives and have a good time doing it!
