Let’s all do our part to beat this thing so we can go back to the complete movie going experience!
Kim Jee-Woon's I SAW THE DEVIL starts off with a horrifying cold-blooded murder in a taxi careens into an unexpected cat and mouse game between the murdered woman's fiance (who turns out to be a highly trained Korean Secret Service officer) and the Seriel Killer before exploding into all out jaw-dropping mayhem as more serial killers, unexpected results pile on.
Rarely (if ever) has a horror movie so willingly jumped tones from somber serial killer genre to revenge thriller to crazy anti-hero opera to a shockingly (but brilliant) climax where everything we've seen before gets re-contextualized and the futility of "revenge" comes into sharp focus.
Not for the squeamish but definitely for cinema lovers who can stomach confrontational horror and great cinema, I SAW THE DEVIL, is this programmer's favorite South Korean movie of the last 20 years.
Best always,
Craig Hammill

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS FOR OUR IN-DOOR THEATER SCREENINGS
REFUNDS:
We can offer refunds up to 24 hours before showtime. Please request a refund through Eventbrite and we will process ASAP. After that, no refunds. Sorry.
However if something last minute comes up and you can’t make the screening, for whatever reason, just write us at: community@secretmovieclub.com and we’ll offer you complimentary tickets to a future screening.
WHY ARE THE TICKET PRICES HIGHER THAN NORMAL?
In order for us to re-open, maintain health protocols , and screen movies on 35MM, we need to temporarily raise our ticket prices. We apologize.
However, if you could look at this as partially helping the Secret Movie Club Theater re-open, make the improvements as we go to turn this into the amazing movie watching, movie making center we know it can be, we would be eternally grateful.
We should be able to lower our ticket prices soon as we are able to increase capacity and lower restrictions.
If you could look at this as all of us being in this together, we WILL remember your kindness.
HELPFUL SECRET MOVIE CLUB (1917 Bay Street, 2nd Floor, LA, CA 90021) THEATER PARKING TIPS:
We recommend that you park just outside our theater. Remember our theater is actually in a beautiful street art alleyway in the back of the 1917 Bay Street building. You get to our entrance by taking a right on Wilson, then a right behind the building. We are the first set of black steps on the right after the big gate.
We will have a staff member on duty to monitor all cars parked in the street-art alleyway at our entrance.
There is also a parking lot at the corner of Mateo and Violet Street, just 2 blocks from our theater, which costs $7 per car.
HOW WILL OUR STAFF MAKE SURE THE THEATER IS AS SAFE AS POSSIBLE:
We will have staff in the theater at all times who make sure everyone is wearing masks and obeying protocols. We will have signage at entrance, markings at concessions, restrooms, etc so folks keep 6 ft distance at all times.
Anyone not observing safe protocols will kindly be asked to leave. On top of this, we’ll be making announcements at the head of each screening to make sure everyone understands the rules & regs!
