CHATTERIS Community Cinema has a double bill on Saturday May 11, with an afternoon showing of the animated comedy Hotel Transylvania, and an evening screening of Dustin Hoffman’s Quartet.
Hotel Transylvania (U) tells the story of Dracula’s lavish five-stake resort, where monsters and their families can live it up, free to be the monsters without humans to bother them.
On one special weekend, Dracula (Adam Sandler) has invited some of the world’s most famous monsters - Frankenstein and his bride, the Mummy, the Invisible Man, a family of werewolves, and more - to celebrate his daughter Mavis’s 118th birthday.
For Dracula, catering to all of these legendary monsters is no problem, but his world could come crashing down when one ordinary guy stumbles on the hotel and takes a shine to Mavis.
Quartet (12A) is a comedy starring Tom Courtenay, Maggie Smith, Billy Connolly, Michael Gambon and Pauline Collins. Reggie (Courtenay), Wilf (Connolly), and Cissy (Collins) reside in Beecham House, a home for retired opera singers. Each year they stage a concert to celebrate Verdi’s birthday, which also raises funds for the home. Reggie’s ex-wife Jean (Smith) arrives and creates tension, playing the diva but refusing to sing in the concert.
Hotel Transylvania will be shown at the King Edward Centre at 3pm and Quartert will be shown at 7.30pm, doors open half an hour before the screenings. Tickets cost £3 for children and £4 for adults, Contact 07759 049619 for reservations. For further information: www.chatteriscommunitycinema.co.uk
