Welcome to the NYC Grindhouse - the only group on Meetup.com that deals specifically with the Exploitation Film Genre. We'll be watching old classics such as Russ Meyers 'Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!' and Jack Hill's 'Coffy', the film that launched sexy Pam Grier into the spotlight, as well as new Grindies like Tarantino's 'Death Proof' and my recent favorite, 'MACHETE'! When summer comes, we'll take a few weekend road-trips to check out the few remaining DRIVE-INs in NY - the closest one i …

This is a group with only two requirements: love movies and love LGBT people. We want to bring LGBT movie fans in NY together to see new LGBT films and then discuss them over drinks.

To start, we'll try ordering out (there are plenty of good but inexpensive places nearby that deliver (Thai, Janpanese, Italian, Indian, etc.); please bring your beverage of choice.
