Snakes on a Plane

Snakes on a Plane 

R16 (movie 105min 69% on Rotten Tomatoes) – this is not a movie for the easily frightened or offended. BUT it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to outside in an amazing setting beside a plane with a group of likeminded people loudly shouting famous line, “I have had it with these motherfing snakes on this motherfing plane!” as it it delivered on the big screen by Samuel L. Jackson (this was probably not something you realised you desperately need to do – until just now!). https://www.youtube.com/shorts/4VeFMByT_BM

The idea for Snakes on a Plane comes from the first (and only) meeting of the Convair Owners Club. James Barron (owner of ZK-CIF in Castlecliff) and Luke Nicholas (the founder, head brewer, and original owner of New Zealand’s Epic Brewing Company drinking Epic “Snakes on a Plane” inspired IPA in the (snake adorned) cockpit of ZK-CIF’s sister Convair 580 ZK-CIE in Epic Brewery’s massive Onehunga Taproom.  Yes the Kiwi sister Convairs have their own beer! Anyhow that’s where the inspiration to show the film comes from. It’s taken some time to pull together, but this year it’s happening!

FREE tickets available from Sherron (from Koha Shed, donations welcome) on site at Castlecliff International Artport from 10am-4pm on 14/15 March. Folk with tickets should get their spot after the gates open at 7pm, then head to the beach to enjoy the 7:40pm sunset, getting back and settled in for the movie by 8:00pm. Folk without tickets will be admitted only IF there’s room after 8pm (so if you have a ticket, be here before 8pm or risk losing your spot!)
