SCREENING IN congress square park


If you think about ‘Jaws’ for more than 45 seconds you will recognize it as nonsense, but it’s the sort of nonsense that can be a good deal of fun, if you like to have the wits scared out of you at irregular intervals.
— Vincent Canby, New York Times

124 minutes. Rated PG. Directed by Steven Spielberg. In English.

Watch your step! SANDBLASTER! is a collaborative outdoor film series presented by PMA Films, SPACE Gallery, and Friends of Congress Square Park, showcasing a trio of our favorite monster movies that turn the beach and the desert into sites of adventure, scares, and gnarly fun.

When the seaside community of Amity finds itself under attack by a dangerous great white shark, the town's chief of police, a young marine biologist and a grizzled shark hunter embark on a desperate quest to destroy the beast before it strikes again.
