Join us Halloween Night for a special screening of CHRISTMAS ON MARS: A FANTASTICAL FILM FREAKOUT FEATURING THE FLAMING LIPS, the directorial debut of the Lips’ visionary frontman Wayne Coyne. Seven years in the making, CHRISTMAS ON MARS features original music by the Flaming Lips, with performances by all band members, comedian Fred Armisen (“Saturday Night Live”), actor Adam Goldberg, musician Isaac Brock (Modest Mouse), among others.
About the film: It’s Christmastime, and the colonization of Mars is underway. However, when an oxygen generator and a gravity control pod malfunction, Major Syrtis (the Lips’ Steven Drozd) and his team (including the Lips’ Michael Ivins) fear the worst. Syrtis also hallucinates about the birth of a baby, and many other strange things. Meanwhile, a compassionate alien superbeing (Coyne) arrives, inspiring and helping the isolated astronauts.
