DESCRIPTION:December 28\n\nLocation: 600 4th St, West Sacramento.  Corner of 4th & F in 
 West Sac, just over the river near The Pyramid Building.  7:00 PM.  
 Admission: $5.00.\n\nMovies on a Big Screen presents Life on the Edge/Meet 
 the Hollowheads\n\nThis 1989 obscurity was directed by Tom Burman, mostly 
 known for his makeup and special effects work on hundreds of titles - 
 everything from the "Star Wars Holiday Special" to "Die Hard 2" to "The 
 X-Files" and most recently, "Nip/Tuck."\n\nThe original title of the film 
 was "Life on the Edge," but was recut, had a new soundtrack added and was 
 retitled to "Meet the Hollowheads" by the distributor. This is hard to 
 definitively state in advance, but we will very likely have the unseen 
 original cut of "Life on the Edge" to screen. This will be coming off of 20 
 year old master tapes from the writer of the film, so who knows what will 
 happen, but this is what we are shooting for.\n\nAbout the film: This is an 
 easy one to give a synopsis of, but a tough one to convey what it's really 
 like. The Hollowheads are a typical nuclear family living in a bizarre, 
 surreal futuristic world populated by technology based on tubes. Henry 
 Hollowhead (John Glover), head of the family, is in lower middle management 
 for United Umbilical. His boss, Mr. Crabneck (Richard Portnow) is headed 
 over for dinner, so Miriam Hollowhead (Nancy Mette) kicks into domestic 
 high gear to make an impressive meal. Once Crabneck arrives and begins 
 lusting after Miriam, things begin to go quite awry. Bizarrely fantastic 
 sets, effects, animals, instruments and various other props abound, setting 
 the stage for this darkly comic look at family structure and suburban life. 
 Featuring Juliette Lewis in one of her first major roles (she was 16 at the 
 time) as daughter Cindy, as well as appearances by Bobcat Goldthwait and 
 Anne Ramsey ("Throw Momma From the Train") in her final role.\n\nSeating is 
 mostly on folding chairs - feel free to bring a pillow or cushion, or even 
 your own chair!  Digital projection on to a large screen. \n\nMovies on a 
 Big Screen presents regular Friday evening film screenings (and 
 occasionally, other nights, too)!\nYou can always check
