Do you have your tickets to The Straight Story yet? It’s screening twice at MTFF, tonight Oct. 23 at 7:00 pm and Sunday, Oct. 26 at 2:00 pm!

Did you know that The Straight Story is the only feature film directed by David Lynch that has never played on Roxy Theater screens? We’re ecstatic to complete his filmography, especially because we get to do it on the only 35mm film print of the movie in circulation! 

We’re saving you a seat in Big Sceeen Country!

⁠
Thursday 10/23 at 7:15 pm - KEEP MONTANA WEIRD. Three gruesome tales from the Treasure State. Whether it be dystopian fallout (Orchards of a Futile Heaven), floral cultists (Bloom), or tentacled monsters (Tenants of Nighmageddon), there's something for everyone to be afraid of in this block.⁠
⁠
Friday 10/24 at 8:00 pm - DEAD LOVER. A fluorescent twist on the Frankenstein story. Watch a stinking gravedigger find love, lose love, and drag love back from the grave, even if it kills her.⁠
⁠
Saturday 10/25 at 8:00 pm - QUEENS OF THE DEAD. Tina Romero follows in her father's footsteps and presents a hilariously chilling zombie outbreak, this time at a Brooklyn drag show. Survive, survive!⁠
⁠
And there are shadows lurking in our shorts blocks... ⁠
⁠
MASKS, screening 10/24 at 7:45 and 10/25 at 2:15 - A woman gives everything she has at an audition (The Other Girl), and a man comes face-to-face with his murdered wife all over again⁠ (Randy as Himself)

PLACES (SORT OF), screening 10/25 at 5:00 and 10/26 at 2:15 - A man keeps vigil with a shadowy entity (It Doesn’t Pass), and a mysterious stranger causes natural disasters in a remote jungle valley⁠ (Vox Humana)

MTFF Shorts Block: PLACES (SORT OF)⁠ ⁠ How doe MTFF Shorts Block: PLACES (SORT OF)⁠
⁠
How does setting–a sense of place, the look of a landscape, the law of the land–shape a story? These nine stunning films take the audience on a journey from the mountains of Yellowstone to the rooftops of Saigon, from a California diner boiling over with political tension to a valley in the Philippines where nothing is what it seems. The stories they tell are as varied and beautiful as the landscapes their characters inhabit.⁠
