There’s an unrivaled decadence that accompanies film-festival immersion. Closed off from the world, cell phones shut down, we sit in meditative, dark calm for days at a time, allowed to exist in a tiny pocket of protected, curated experiences.... More »
No matter what you may hear, it’s not a cult. The Tribe of the new film, M15F1T5 is actually a group of misfit kids (er, young adults) who band together for do-gooding, and they somehow evolved into a social and political movement set to change... More »
Considering more than one third of Dallas’ population is Spanish-speaking, our lack of interesting bilingual entertainment is glaringly evident. Major theaters don’t offer reliable alternatives, only increasing the divide between cultures and,... More »
Dean Worrmer and the Omegas seriously had it coming to them. You don’t mess with the ragtag crew known as the Deltas, a lesson well-learned in the classic National Lampoon’s Animal House. For more than two decades, the granddaddy of all college... More »
Better upgrade your mapping app and pump up those bicycle tires, because the Oak Cliff Speedbump Tour returns this weekend to bait you inside the homes of stranger artists. (Somewhere right now, your mother is irrationally angry but doesn’t know... More »
Southfork's own Jock Ewing haunts Texas Theatre, looking just a tad rough around the edges. Moviegoers at the historic Oak Cliff cinema palace are always treated to a special pre-flick spot from Ewing (played by local musician and lovable cable-access weirdo George Quartz). The ghost of the great man is shown lurching unsteadily toward the bar, tipping his 10-gallon back on his head, boring the bartender shitless with a semi-intelligible story about a giant catfish. "Whence using the powder... More »
Not all romances fit the conventional confines of a mall's megaplex. Some need booze. Recycled junk yard cinema. And reanimated corpses, having threesomes. For those modern age Romeos and Juliets, there is Tuesday Night Trash, a free weekly Texas Theatre series organized by crap's curator, Travis Box. Looking at TNT's monthly calendar is a little like digging through the VHS junk drawer in a dilapidated haunted house. Will you wind up with 80 minutes of demonic blobs, hungry for human... More »
Do we need to add to what we said in previous Best of Dallas write-ups, or the People Issue love we showed for the guys behind The Texas Theatre's revival? A refresher: the so-bad-they're-good genre flicks at Tuesday Night Trash; the bar; the arthouse films you won't see anywhere else; the bar; the revival of past classics; the bar; the Oak Cliff Film Festival; the bar. For us, seeing Raiders of the Lost Ark on 35mm was enough to seal a repeat victory. More »
The historic Oak Cliff theater boasts a roster of some of the hippest events in town. Pair that with a damn good bar that serves everything from canned beer to Prohibition-era cocktails and you have yourself a Dallas hipster den. So, whether stopping by Texas Theatre for a psychedelic DJ set, the Geeks Who Drink trivia night, or to check out your favorite cult classic film on 35mm, chances are you'll bump into a hipster dreamboat before the night's end.

It's hard to walk into Oak Cliff's Texas Theatre and not feel the history thick in the air. The stucco walls on the interior cover up the theater's original architecture that was in place the day Lee Harvey Oswald ducked in without paying, shortly after the death of President John F. Kennedy. Since then, the theater has changed hands several times, and in 2010 was reopened under the management of Aviation Cinemas Inc., which screens an impressive mix of award-winning indie flicks and cult...
