- **Event Description**: Attention citizens of earth and the greater Philadelphia region, join us as we embark on our Fourth Annual Sci-Phi Film Festival taking place March 27th through March 29th. From time traveling DeLorean’s to invaders from another planet, our mission is to showcase some of the most exceptional science fiction films of all time over the course of 3 days. The Festival continues on Saturday with one of the most bad-ass movies from the '80s- THEY LIVE on 35mm! 𝗧𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗙𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝟭𝟬 𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗺𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝘃𝗮𝗶𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗮𝘁 hiwaytheater.org/sciphi

𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗲: We’re here to chew bubblegum and play THEY LIVE on 35mm — and we’re all out of bubblegum! This inventive and whip smart sci-fi satire, courtesy of genre master John Carpenter is the pitch-perfect take down of ‘80s consumerism. A drifter (played by pro wrestler Roddy Piper), discovers a plot by alien invaders to enslave the American masses via subliminal messaging. Aided by a special pair of sunglasses. Our hero must expose the conspiracy before it’s too late. As prescient today as it was five decades ago, the film also stars Keith David who goes toe to toe with Piper in one of cinema’s greatest fight scenes. Presented on a 35mm print courtesy of Exhumed Films.

**Because we are operating with a single projector, this special 35mm screening will be presented with a short intermission to accommodate a reel change! **

The 2026 Sci-Phi Film Festival is sponsored by a generous grant courtesy of the Vesta Fund.
