Best Movie Theater — Art House
Coolidge Corner Theatre
The area’s piddling collection of surviving art-house theaters (once there were many) battle it out every year to reign supreme in this category. This year was the COOLIDGE CORNER THEATRE’s turn to come up in the rotation. Yes, the Art Deco talkie kingdom’s revolving roster of indie films makes for a cinematheque elite, but the real showboatin’ gems at the Coolidge are the whacked-out extras — epic festivals, sing-alongs, and midnight shows where anything goes — even naked zombies. Don’t miss playful “interactives,” done in true Rocky Horror style — previous favorites include the Buffy the Vampire Slayer musical extravaganza and The Lost Boys, complete with goodie bags and blood-sucking audience participation.
