A four-night pop-up film festival bringing 80s and 90s classics to the heart of Footscray. Think big-screen nostalgia, DJs, cocktails - it's a night out, not just a screening.

ALIEN

During its return to the earth, commercial spaceship Nostromo intercepts a distress signal from a distant planet. When a three-member team of the crew discovers a chamber containing thousands of eggs on the planet, a creature inside one of the eggs attacks an explorer. The entire crew is unaware of the impending nightmare set to descend upon them when the alien parasite planted inside its unfortunate host is birthed.

EVENT INFO

Footscray Flix is a tribute to Footscray's cinematic past, where four large cinemas once operated within 500m of one another. The last of these cinemas closed in 1987. That’s where our programming begins! Four nights of 80s and 90s popcorn classics with a nod to some memorable films of the West.

Enjoy pre-show drinks from Barbarian Brewing and DJs spinning tunes between films. Tickets at 1980s prices!
