The Carmike Market Square theater is restarting its ReRun Film Series for five weeks, starting tonight with “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.”

All ticket proceeds will go to the Children’s Memorial Hospital in Chicago.

The ReRun Film Series is a long-standing tradition for the theater, starting when it was owned by the George Kerasotes Corp (GKC).

“Under GKC, we did two festivals a year for quite a number of years,” said Assistant Manager Jeff Kerman. The tradition continued when the theater was bought by Carmike, but with the re-fitting of all Carmike theaters to digital projectors, the film series saw a two-year hiatus.

It returns tonight with “Fear and Loathing,” followed by the other four most-requested films of previous ReRun audiences. Each flick will be screened at midnight Friday and Saturday from April 18 to May 17.

“The films that are requested are exactly what you’d expect from a college town,” Kerman said of the lineup.

“I’m most excited to see ‘Boondock Saints,’ only because it never had a proper theatrical release,” Kerman said. Kerman is also excited about the gory “Battle Royale.”

“I am a big Asian cinema nerd; the chance to be able to play a film like that is really awesome,” Kerman said.

Other highly-requested films include “Monty Python and the Holy Grail” and the live-action “Masters of the Universe” movie, but the all-time top-requested film will not be playing at the film series.

“‘Rocky Horror Picture Show’ is the No. 1 most requested film over all the years of the ReRun, but we won’t play it for security reasons,” Kerman said.

Kerman associates the film with fears of audience riots and destruction of the theater, and for that reason, “We can’t do it,” he said.
