THE DRAGON

Williams (Jim Kelly), Lee uncovers Han's slavery and drug trafficking
ring located on a secret island fortress.
4:15pm - RIKI OH: THE
STORY OF RICKY
(1991) The only known 35mm print of this ultra-violent
classic! In the near future, a corrupt prison system is run by shady
officials who work with prison gangs to oppress the inmates. In steps
Ricky; the new kid on the prison block. He's a kung fu master with a
distaste for injustice, and a punch so powerful it literally mutilates
his opponents. Based on a popular manga, this is one of the weirdest,
craziest and goriest martial arts movies ever made!
6:15pm - THE
KILLER
(1989) John Woo's masterpiece of bullet ballet. Chow Yun-Fat
stars as a reclusive assassin who accepts one last hit. He hopes to
raise money to help a woman he accidentally blinded, but when he is
instead double-crossed by his boss, it's time for a million bullets to
fly.
