The Coolidge After Midnite presents a special Creature Double-Feature of Swamp Thing and Return of Swamp Thing! Screening as part of the Coolidge After Midnite Award honoring Adrienne Barbeau!
After a two week retrospective featuring some of her best known roles, Adrienne Barbeau will join us in-person on December 2 for a 35mm screening of The Fog before recieveing the Coolidge After Midnite Award!
Swamp Thing (1982)
Deep in the Florida everglades, a brilliant scientist, Dr. Alec Holland (Ray Wise), and a sexy government agent, Alice Cable (Adrienne Barbeau, The Fog), have developed a secret formula that could end world hunger.
Little do they know, however, that their arch nemesis, Arcane (Louis Jourdan, Octopussy), is plotting to steal the serum for his own selfish schemes. Looting the lab and kidnapping Cable, Arcane douses Holland with the chemicals and leaves him for dead. Mutated by his own formula, Holland becomes Swamp Thing - a half-human/half-plant superhero who will stop at nothing to rescue Cable and defeat Arcane...even if it costs him his life!
The Return of Swamp Thing (1989)
Screening with Swamp Thing! Everyone's favorite muck-encrusted plant-man is back in this tongue-in-cheek action-adventure, based on the award-winning DC comic series.
