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, 2/15 @ 12pm noon
Yesterday was Valentine’s Day, today is the hangover, and that means it’s time for this totally forgotten Hong Kong movie from the early 2000s to get its day in court. This year is the 5th year of Sundays on Fire and that means we’re digging deep into collections and archives to bring you movies that have been truly forgotten and this is one. A big deal when it came out about a quarter century ago, today you’d be hard-pressed to find anyone who’s seen it. That’s about to change. Because this flick takes no prisoners.
Starting with a meet-cute, a totally charming young couple fall in love, fall into a rut, and decide to take a trip to Europe to kickstart their romance. Then their luggage gets stolen. Then this movie sinks its teeth into your brain and doesn’t let go for the next 90 minutes. One of the unlikeliest collaborations in Hong Kong cinema delivers a thriller with enough twists to keep your head spinning, enough hard-slamming action to keep your blood pumping, and enough high voltage, high impact, high wire mayhem to obliterate the hardest heart. No lectures, no moralizing, no lessons about life. Just pure mayhem. With some kissing.
