- **Event Description**: “A deeply hilarious film…This satire of the pharmaceutical industry goes down like a miracle drug. It is as intensely weird and dark as it is full-throated funny.” – The Globe and Mail

Forget SNL, Lorne Michaels’ greatest gift to comedy will always be those crazy crossdressing Canucks: Dave Foley, Bruce McCulloch, Kevin McDonald, Mark McKinney, and Scott Thompson. Or as they’re collectively known, The Kids in the Hall. Having revolutionized sketch comedy by wedding bizarrely memorable characters with Pythonesque surrealism and a punk-rock attitude, the Kids turned their hand to the big screen as only they could: By crafting a deeply strange, unsettlingly dark film about depression and pharmaceutical industry malfeasance that features gags about cancer, pornography, and suicide. (The film follows the hilarious fallout from the invention of Gleemonex, a happiness drug that just so happens to put users into comas.) The result was a critical and commercial flop that put the final nail in the troupe’s already well-secured coffin. But in this age of mass chemical dependency, the Kids’ one-and-only cinematic effort has aged like fine Prozac. Silly, absurd, and genuinely daring in way few comedy films are, BRAIN CANDY is the perfect prescription for the winter blues.

Plus, starting at 6 pm, we’ll have a pre-show featuring some of the best clips from the legendary original Kids in the Hall sketch show!
