Saturday, July 17
THE LAKEWOOD PUBLIC CINEMA: The Fly (1958)
Directed by Kurt Neumann Rated PG
With Vincent Price in the lead, you know you’re in for classic suspense horror. A scientist developing a teleportation device is forever entangled with a common housefly when he foolishly experiments on himself. Though not as gory as the 80s remake, this movie is still plenty scary.
6:00 p.m. in the Main Library Auditorium
