Screenings in the Bay (Friday to Sunday): Possession, Nuts!, American Psycho


Happy Friday everyone! Just one last day to get through and then it's the weekend. And we have a lot of options for how to spend the next three days, especially since a lot of movies are starting their runs in theatres today. But not all of these titles are going to be screening for long; Andrzej Zulawski’s Possession will only be playing twice at the Roxie, so plan your attendance accordingly!
And you probably noticed the cool new banner for this article, which is courtesy of The Gross Uncle. Check out more of his work at thegrossuncle.com.
