'Flashdance' and Live Comedy at Hollywood Theater

Two recently released films are in the lineup at Dormont's Hollywood Theater this weekend, plus a special series.

"Beware of Mr. Baker," Jay Bulger's 2012 film about Ginger Baker's musical career with Cream and Blind Faith, will run Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Crime-thriller "Sushi Girl," another 2012 film, this time by Kern Saxton, is on the marquee Friday and Sunday.

Saturday is the start of a new series at Hollywood Theater. The "It's So Good It's Bad" series kicks off at 9 p.m. The featured movie is "Flashdance" (1983), and the group Hustlebot will accompany the movie by providing some creative, comedic comentary.

"Think 'Mystery Science Theater,' where the comedians heckle with microphones during the movie," said Hollywood Theater manager Chad Hunter.

Tickets for It's So Good It's Bad are $10.
