Sundays on Fire V: More Movies! More Mayhem!
Holy cow! It’s still running! Now in its 5th year, 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 we had to dig deep for 2026’s line-up so you’re getting some of the most obscure, rarely screened, and most jaw-dropping Hong Kong classics on 35mm, and the next movie screens…
Sunday 5/3 @ 12pm noon
One of the Hong Kong’s funniest comedies, this flick is a demolition derby of ideas smashing into one another in a cartwheeling cataclysm of ridiculosity that catches on fire and plows into the audience at 500 mph. It’s also one of the unlikeliest movies ever made. Conceived, written, cast, shot, edited, and released in only 27 days (!) it started out as a serious drama about heroic doctors working at a cutting edge hospital but somewhere between day 1 and day 27 its creators realized that hospital dramas were stupid and the only solution was to turn it into a comedy. There hasn’t been a movie this surreal, this freewheeling, or this mean-spirited since Airplane! or the original Naked Gun.
