"High-femme" monsters, David Bowie, a queer neo-giallo, Nathan Lane, and... Chucky?
It's Pride Month, and the Alamo Drafthouse in Woodbury is celebrating. The theater chain's lone Minnesota outpost says it's offering "essential LGBTQ+ cinema" throughout the month.
While we can quibble about whether or not that "essential" label truly applies to all of the movies — ahem, Bride of Chucky — the theater is unquestionably celebrating with a series of films with LGBTQ+ stories at their heart.
Here's what it's got on tap.
June 11: Bride of Chucky (1998)
June 15: The Birdcage (1996)
June 16: Showgirls (1995)
June 16: Knife + Heart (2018)
June 23: The Hunger (1983)
June 25 and 30: Frankenhooker (1990)
Outside of the Pride series, the Alamo, like many other Twin Cities area theaters, is offering 20th anniversary screenings of Ang Lee's groundbreaking Brokeback Mountain (2005). At the Alamo, it'll play on June 20 and 22.
On various dates, it'll also play at Marcus Cinema theaters and the Mann Edina Theatres.
The Birdcage is getting some screen time around the Twin Cities this summer. It'll also play on June 17 at The Parkway Theater and again on July 17 at the Heights Theater. Additionally, the Alamo is bringing the very goofy B-movie Frankenhooker back later in the summer. That'll play on Aug. 2 and 3 at the Woodbury theater.This story was originally reported by Bring Me The News on Jun 10, 2025, where it first appeared.
