Can Bruce Dern save the world from Adam Ant? Find out when you join Sleepover Trading Co. for an afternoon screening of the 1987 post-apocalyptic World Gone Wild. It’s like Mad Max but weirder. This film is not streaming or available on DVD in the US so this is a special chance to see this cult gem plus participate in a pre-film VHS swap meet.
It’s 2087 and Lost Wells guards Earth’s most precious resource—water—under guru Ethan (the iconic Bruce Dern in full kook mode) and schoolteacher Angie (Weekend at Bernie’s Catherine Mary Stewart). When Manson-inspired cultist Derek Abernathy (rock legend Adam Ant) discovers the water and threatens to seize it, the outmatched villagers hire mercenary George Landon (Streets of Fire’s Michael Pare, frequently shirtless) to mount a last-ditch defense.
Come buy and trade with fellow tapeheads at our VHS swap meet at 3pm before the movie kicks off at 4pm with drag horror host Glam Stroker, a brand new pre-show and more surprises.
