The Cinefamily Los Angeles

Once an actual silent movie theater with a storied past, the local cinephile staple is the place to go for all things cult — from Jerry Lewis retrospectives to blaxploitation film series. Check out double-feature Fridays and music Thursdays.

El Rey Theatre Los Angeles

El Rey means “the king.” As in, this place is the king of that uniquely L.A. brand of deco theater-turned-hip music venue. This one’s a cut above: beautifully restored with a diner-style cafe for hanging out before the show.
