Stranger, smaller-room, and in-the-know Scope NYC picks for Friday, May 15.
A lingerie fashion show at Althea's Hideaway is a very specific Friday pregame, not another vague nightlife listing.
Honey's hosting a party literally called That Good Sh*t has the right homegrown absurdity for a first-stop deep cut.
Houdini on the big screen at the Performing Arts Library is a pleasingly old-New-York way to turn an archival screening into an outing.
Japan Society putting The Man Who Stole the Sun in a prime slot is a better cult-film choice than chasing the obvious midnight titles.
ReSolute and Discoteca bringing Move D to a secret venue is for people who still treat the address reveal as part of the night.
A music-video night at Cassette is a tight little premise, especially on a Friday when most listings are just DJs and doors.
Spectacle showing Lightning Over Braddock is the industrial-dream oddity that makes the theater useful beyond cult-horror comfort picks.
Short films opening at Green-Wood Cemetery gives the program a setting strange enough to matter before you even get to the lineup.
A ruafza show called trans fats* at C'mon Everybody sounds handmade in the best sense, with a title that refuses to smooth itself out.
Barbara Hammer early works at 10 PM is a smart late Spectacle slot: queer film history without museum politeness.
