Spring is finally here, summer is in hot pursuit and the days are getting longer. And for any film fans, they're going to be even longer thanks to the Downer Theatre and the return of its Almost Midnight late night movie series, a collection of retro favorites, outrageous oddities and cult classics perfect for revisiting at wild hours of the night.

The Downer's latest picks might be their best batch yet, starting hot right off the bat with the bonkers Nicolas Cage demon biker horror-thriller "Mandy" – and frankly "bonkers Nicolas Cage demon biker horror-thriller" undersells how eye-buggingly mad this movie is. And that's just the beginning, as Almost Midnight also has the laser-sharp rock rom-com "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World," the 40th anniversary of the iconic sci-fi chiller "Alien," the insanity of the Jananese horror flick "House" and the rock doc joy that is "Stop Making Sense." Plus, it's not a midnight movie fest if you don't screen the so-bad-it's-brilliant classic "The Room."

And there's so much more. Here's the full list of crazy movies headed to the Downer:

April 19-20 – "Mandy"

April 26-27 – "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World"

May 3-4 – "Alien"

May 10-11 – "House"
