British talk-show host David Frost has become a lowbrow laughingstock. Richard M. Nixon has just resigned the United States presidency in total disgrace over Vietnam and the Watergate scandal. Determined to resurrect his career, Frost risks everything on a series of in-depth interviews in order to extract an apology from Nixon. The cagey Nixon, however, is equally bent on redeeming himself in his nation’s eyes. In the television age, image is king, and both men are desperate to out-talk and upstage each other as the cameras roll. The result is the interview that sealed a president’s legacy.
“Structured as a prize fight between two starkly ambitious men in professional crisis, FROST/NIXON makes it clear that the competitor who controls the camera reaps the spoils.” —NY Times.

Miss Nelson can’t control her crazy classroom because she’s just too nice. But when she disappears, her replacement is the hard-as-nails, detention-loving, recess-canceling, homework-overloading substitute teacher Viola Swamp! With the Big Test approaching, the kids suddenly realize how much they miss Miss Nelson and they’ll do anything — including hiring a private eye — to solve the mystery of her disappearance and bring her back.
Showtimes are Thursdays at 3:00PM, Fridays at 1:00PM and 4:00PM, Saturdays at 1:00PM and 4:00PM, and Sundays at 3:00PM.

Get ready for Halloween Movie Week at Asheville Pizza “Boo & View” from Friday, October 26 to Thursday, November 1st!
Tis the season for spooky movies, and we have something for people of all ages and tastes. Check showtimes on our website here:
https://www.ashevillebrewing.com/movies/
TICKETS FOR MONSTER HOUSE & 28 DAYS LATER – $3.00 tickets are available one day in advance of your desired showtime. For example, tickets for Friday the 26th go on sale Thursday the 25th. No online tickets. Only available at our 675 Merrimon Avenue location.
The week’s movie lineup is…
MONSTER HOUSE IN 3D (2 matinees each day):
This 2006 classic from producer Steven Spielberg is always ranked as one of the best Halloween movies for kids. It’s hilarious, action-packed, and just a little bit spooky. There will be 2 matinees each day in 3D except on Tuesday and Wednesday when we show it in regular 2D.
28 DAYS LATER (Friday to Wednesday at 10:00pm except on Saturday, Oct. 27th):
Oscar-winning writer/director Danny Boyle flipped the zombie genre on it’s head in 2002 long before The Walking Dead appeared. It’s considered one of the best horror films of all time, and is absolutely terrifying on the big screen in a dark theater.
ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW (Saturday, Oct. 27th @ 10:00pm):
Rocky returns for a special Halloween show with a live shadowcast (Unexpected Pleasures) performing along with the movie. This will sell out in advance, so get your tickets early. Advance $6.00 tickets are now on sale at the ticket link above. ADULTS ONLY SHOW, AGES 18+.
BEETLEJUICE ~ 30th Anniversary (October 29 – 31 @ 7:00pm):
The Ghost with the Most is back! We sold out 2 shows last year with people begging us to bring it back. It’s weird, wild, hilarious and we expect people dancing in their seats at the dinner party scene. Advance $3.00 tickets are now on sale at the ticket link above.

CompostNow, Asheville GreenWorks, & New Belgium Brewing are teaming up to fight scary Halloween food waste!
Most of the 1.3 billion pounds of pumpkins produced in the U.S. end up in the landfill. We think there’s a better way to use old pumpkins which is why we’re hosting a free community event “Smash Don’t Trash” on Sunday, November 4th from 12pm-4pm at New Belgium Brewing.
Community members are encouraged to bring their old pumpkins to be composted rather than landfilled. The event will host pumpkin smashing stations, kid-friendly activities, and music on the spacious lawn at New Belgium Brewery. You can also get a $1 off the Voodoo Ranger Atomic Pumpkin beer while supplies last!
All compostables will be processed by Danny’s Dumpster, a family-owned hauling and processing business in Asheville. All compost created from “Smash Don’t Trash” will be shared with Sand Hill Community Garden and Asheville GreenWork’s Sand Hill Orchard and Nursery.
Can’t make the event? There will be a dumpster on Craven Street in front of the brewery all weekend long! Drop your pumpkins off and they’ll still be composted!
All are welcome! Join us for a smashing good time!
