Killing is the only way out

Come for the Jungle Adventure, Stay for the Rubber Monsters! Strap in and prepare for a movie that dares to ask, what if Romancing the Stone had way less romance, way more fog machines, and an unlimited budget for rubbery reptile creatures? Starring the always-effortless Peter Fonda as a jaded helicopter pilot and Deborah Raffin as an anthropologist on a mission to find a legendary lizard-thing, this movie delivers everything you never knew you needed: steamy jungle locales, droning synth scores, and creatures that look like they escaped from a high school theater department’s fever dream. And just when you think it couldn’t get any weirder—John Amos pops in for a cameo that defies all logic and reason.

Directed by the genre-hopping Gus Trikonis—who danced his way out of West Side Story and into a career of offbeat classics like The Evil and Take This Job and Shove It—this film is the perfect mix of adventure, horror, and unintentional comedy. Whether you know it as Dance of the Dwarfs, Jungle Heat, or Easy Flyer (because, you know, Peter Fonda), this is one expedition you won’t forget—no matter how hard you try.

So, grab your best khakis, practice your terrified jungle screams, and join us for a screening that will leave you questioning everything—especially how this movie exists in the first place.
