Free Bad Movie Screening

Hey, we're back!

Short notice, apologise! Tomorrow (Saturday 10th) at The Art Syndicate at the top of Surry Hills (Bourke Street, near Taylor Square) doors open at 3pm (or near after if the owner's running late - but he's coming in early, losing quality time with the fam, so we don't mind five minutes..) - movie'll probably start about half past.

Venue's ppl means we can't tell you what the movie is, but we're going for something a little spooky for October, there's a pixelated poster on the events part of our website if you'd like to guess (though, given the obscure nature of the shit we screen, is it really going to help?).

That said, never thought the title was that important, it's going to be fun, we're going to have a laugh (with it, or against it) and we're going to have a few drinks (in cheer, or, well, alcohol does impair short term memory formation...).

They have a great selection of vino, being the only bar in the state to exclusively stock wines from only NSWs - keeping money in the economy whilst lowering the CO2 miles on each bottle..

No food available, but they're welcome to ordering in (especially from the café next door).

I started Shit Movie Group nearly a decade a go with pretty much the same aspirations as r/sydneysocials - the weird dichotomy of how large this city is to how hard it is to actually meet all these people.

Why we start mid-arvo, so you've had time to life admin in the morning, why we keep the entry ticket free (though, if you can buy a drink, it helps with the venue wanting us back) the movie is an ice breaker, we all have a shared experience to discuss / group therapy after and as there's invariably something to laugh at (intentional or otherwise) there's also a whole bunch of psychology on the benefits of laughing in a group.

So, come along, meet some folks, have a laugh, finish up early enough to go on and enjoy your Saturday night.
