Come watch this banger with us on July 3, 2026, at 7:30 P.M. Central Daylight Time. Preceded by the original Night of the Living Dead (1968), at 5:30 PM.

Following the collapse of his clan, an unemployed samurai (Tatsuya Nakadai) arrives at the manor of Lord Iyi, begging to be allowed to commit ritual su***de on the property. Iyi’s clansmen, believing the desperate ronin is merely angling for a new position, try to force his hand and get him to eviscerate himself—but they have underestimated his beliefs and his personal brand of honor. Winner of the Cannes Film Festival’s Special Jury Prize, Harakiri (1962), directed by Masaki Kobayashi is a fierce evocation of individual agency in the face of a corrupt and hypocritical system.

School’s out, but the trouble is just beginning.

Join us for Summer School (1987), the comedy classic where a laid-back gym teacher gets stuck teaching a class of misfits over summer break. Packed with quotable jokes, lovable weirdos, and peak ‘80s charm, it’s the perfect way to kick off the season, no homework required.
