Hollywood Entertainment returns to the microcinema with Inspector Ike (2020) and special guests!

‍

We’re very excited to present a rare VHS screening of this incredibly funny and charming comedy with director Graham Mason and co-stars Matt Barats, Jessica Damouni, Anthony Oberbeck, and more joining us in person to discuss their meticulously silly cult classic. A modest and subtle movie that feels massive in its ambition and deeply absurd execution, Inspector Ike successfully and lovingly evokes television’s past while signaling comedy’s cleverer future. Tune in for a stunning cast of superstars. Recipe cards recommended! (H.E.)

‍

Inspector Ike, New York City’s greatest police detective, finds himself in a high-stakes game of cat-and-mouse after the conniving understudy of an avant-garde theater group knocks off the star actor. A “lost TV movie” from the 1970’s, INSPECTOR IKE mixes visual gags, slapstick, gross food, and heartfelt emotion. Think COLUMBO meets THE NAKED GUN, featuring a rogue's gallery of NYC's best comedians. (Factory 25)
