I aimed my gulliver at a freshened arrangement of 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) at Alamo Drafthouse, dialed up A Clockwork Orange (1971) and Eyes Wide Shut (1999) on the telly, and boy what a nice, warm vibraty feeling I had all through me guttiwuts.

As a bonus, catch the vicious young hoodlums of Meeting Tom Cruise and the divine Vinessa Shaw getting real horrorshow on Eyes Wide Shut.
