The Lower East Side Film Festival is kicking off their 2016 lineup Thursday night with Art of the Prank, an excellent documentary about the multimedia satirist Joey Skaggs.
This year's lineup offers screenings at the Sunshine Cinema (including a special 25th anniversary midnight screening of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II, The Secret of the Ooze), the beloved "Gay Night Pool Pary and Dive-In Movie" at Sixty LES, and a Horror & Suspense Screenwriters Panel at the newly opened Ludlow House.
