Bellmore , NY at 8PM and is open to the public. Admission is $10. The film is
unrated, but does contain profanity, graphic violence, and nudity, so no one
under 17 will be admitted. An after-party will take place at Willie McBride's one
block away at 101 Bedford Avenue in Bellmore , NY . There will be free food,
drink specials, and karaoke.
Free admission to the after party with your ticket stub!
