 Director ALEJANDRO IÑARRITU always creates cinema that deserves to be seen in its native habitat. His newest DIGGER pairs him with "CHIVO" once again for sweeping tracking shots and hyper wide lenses that are breathtaking to behold. Not to mention TOM CRUISE playing an oil tycoon that might destroy the world feels like early Halloween candy. We've also tacked on a repertory screening of KUBRICK's DR STRANGELOVE to give you a hint on the vibe this week only!  Until quite recently, GREGG ARAKI was an underground icon even in his own time. The teenagers watching the APOCALYPSE TRILOGY were in-the-know cinephiles that scoffed at "main stream" underground in favor a more razor edged approach. This week MYSTERIOUS SKIN, his 2004 romantic UFO story based on the book by SCOTT HEIM comes to TX Theatre for just two nights.  Perennial favorite CARRIE jumps off the page for this edition of GREAT ADAPTATIONS with a "Prom Gone Wrong" themed party to get the engines revved for the season, and we've got a couple live scores from returning artists with HÄXAN and JOAN OF ARC and plenty more where that came from. Hope we see you soon! - JR
