The Sugar Club is the venue to be at on February 12th as Kurt Russell’s Jack Burton rides The Pork Chop express into some Big Trouble in Little China.
Cult favorite (and one of director John Carpenter’s personal favorites), Big Trouble in Little China is a non-stop action adventure film that perfectly blends comedy and kung fu with a mystical, monster, ghost story.
Kurt Russell plays hard-boiled truck driver Jack Burton, who gets caught in a bizarre conflict within, and underneath, San Francisco’s Chinatown. An ancient Chinese prince and Chinatown crimelord has kidnapped a beautiful green-eyed woman, who is the fiancee to Jack’s best friend. Jack must help his friend rescue the girl before the evil Lo Pan uses her to break the ancient curse that keeps him a fleshless and immortal spirit.
Carpenter uses all the best elements of martial arts films, 1940s action serials, Chinese mythology and straight-forward American adventure to make up a tale wild with imagination. Kurt Russell is wonderful as the brash, brave, and reluctant hero Jack Burton, who is hysterically out of place in this world of magic potions, goblins and curses.
Join the journey to Little China for a night of beer, pizza, explosive action adventure and comedy.
