Sundays on Fire III: A New Beginning!
Now extended until the END OF 2025 for your viewing pleasure, on the second Sunday of every month, at high noon, Subway Cinema teams up with the Nitehawk Prospect Park to deliver a 35mm print of a Hong Kong classic. We don’t tell you the title until it appears on the screen, but 2025’s line-up is all killer, no filler. We’re showing several stone cold classics that never play anywhere, and some movies so obscure you’d be hard-pressed to find them even on laserdisc. We don’t know how we got these prints either! Next up…
Sunday, 8/17 @ 12pm
It’s August and that means you want to sit in a dark, air conditioned auditorium, turn off your brain, and see a giant piece of pure cinematic entertainment. Well, don’t worry — we’ve got you covered! Rarely screened for some reason, this ‘80s blockbuster sees three of Hong Kong’s most athletic action stars clock out and head to Europe where they skateboard, run a food truck, fight dudes on dirt bikes, try to impress girls, fail, get in fights, and get in even more fights. A lot of fights. A leisurely action movie, a punchdrunk comedy, a hang out, a vibe — it’s a sheer slice of ultra-‘80s summertime style coupled with a bunch of expert Hong Kong comedy kickass.
(Note: this 35mm print is dubbed in English, but it’s the last dub we’ll be showing this year. And for a comedy this fun, who cares?)
