Dedicated Email - Thursday - 10/3/2025 - Carrie 70s Prom

We’re turning back time to 1976 for a night soaked in glitter, film history, and just a touch of psychic terror. DoLA, MUBI, and the City of Hermosa Beach are taking over the exact gym used in Carrie for a full-blown retro prom and a big-screen screening of Brian De Palma’s horror masterpiece.

Yes. That Carrie. That gym. That ending. (And yes, DoSD will be there IRL.)

Here’s (some of) what’s going down:

1. Live-band prom in the original filming location

2. Screening of Carrie (1976) at 8:30PM sharp

3. Prom-style photo booth to capture your peak ‘70s moment

4. Costume contest – go bold, win roses and a MUBI prize pack

5. Guided tour of filming locations

6. Surprises and prom-night weirdness we’re keeping under wraps

Costumes encouraged. Think: feathered hair, velvet suits, floor-length polyester, pig blood if you’re brave. Prom royalty isn’t born – it’s made (sometimes in fire).

This is the first-ever event in CinemAdventures: Films That Pull You Into Their World – our new series with MUBI.
