So here’s something to do tonight if you’re short of cash, nostalgic or just into 1980s movies. A movie from the 80s will be screened outdoors at Drexel Park (32nd and Powelton) every Thursday (except July 4) from tonight until August 15.

Screening tonight.

Tonight you can catch Poindexter, Booger and the gang in the 1984 John Landis classic Revenge of the Nerds. Apparently there will be 1980s seat cushions available free while supplies last. We’re not sure if they are actually from the 1980s or they are day-glo colors or what, but they’re free.

The screenings start at dusk.

Future films include:

June 27 – Adventures in Babysitting
July 11 – Spaceballs
July 18 – Pee Wee’s Big Adventure
July 25 – Die Hard
August 1 – Batman
August 8 – A Nightmare on Elm Street 3
August 15 – The NeverEnding Story
