    Special Screenings

    A Very Valentine Bride of Re-Animator (1989)

    It’s alive! Alive with Valentine’s Day spirit, that is. Blue Starlite’s new location within the Millennium Youth Entertainment Complex single-theatre cinema screens the 1990 follow-up to Lovecraftian nightmare Re-Animator, where cohabitating mad scientists Dan Cain and Herbert West combine romance and god complexes for a schlock shock to the system. Let green reanimation fluid ooze from your heart when you ask your beloved to share a romantic moment: just you, them, and Jeffery Combs’ giant projected forehead. – James Scott

    AEW Dynamite & Rampage

    Last year left some fans clamoring for a restoration of the “feeling” All Elite Wrestling once gave them. Perennially online CEO/booker Tony Khan – whose longtime passion for pro-wrestling runs deeper than his billion-dollar pockets – recently tweeted “2024 AEW is the next 2021 AEW.” Bringing back elements that separated his action-packed promotion from its competition, like a sports-esque ranking system, has cultivated a promising start to 2024. Wrestlers currently advertised to appear include Adam Copeland (fka Edge), Jon Moxley, and Sting. With AEW building toward Sting’s retirement match next month, this taping may represent the final chance Austin residents get to behold “the Icon” live. – Derek Udensi

    Nightlife & Parties

    Erotica: a Madonna Drag Tribute

    Why celebrate Valentine’s Day when you can celebrate Mother Madge? Presented by sexual health center ASHwell, queens Tatiana Cholula, Harlót, Paprika, and Ryan pay tribute to the queer ally of our time and her landmark 1992 album Erotica. Need a preview? Ryan paid homage to the record’s coinciding coffeetable book Sex last year, so you know she’s got her lewks down pat. DJ Lavender Thug sets the mood before and after the show – erotic, indeed. – Carys Anderson
