The Palouse Cult Film Revival began over a night of drinks with friends.

We had three things we wanted to accomplish:

  1. We wanted to bring some of the most bizarre, nostalgic, hilarious cult classics from our living room to the greater community of people on the Palouse

  2. We also wanted to provide a new opportunity for entertainment that allowed people to come together and laugh together.

  3. We wanted to find a way to give back to our community by supporting local non-profits.

So we made it happen.

In 2018, we launched the very first PCFR at the Kenworthy Theatre! Our debut films were Killer Klowns From Outer Space, Troll 2, & The Room. In 2019, we showed Sleepaway Camp, Drop Dead Gorgeous, Best F(r)iends, and continued what is now a annual tradition of screening The Room—which included a special guest: Greg Sestero (aka Mark)!

After a Covid Hiatus, PCFR returned in 2022 with two new films being added to the PCFR books: Bleeders and Miracle Valley.

In 2023, we are headed back to the Kenworthy for 3 new films plus The Room!

“An incredible three nights of awesomely bad cult films, paired with custom drinks and lots of audience participation... Exactly what you want in a cult film fest. I'm looking forward to year after year of fun at this event.”
