After a brief hiatus The Animated Series! is returning to the Toronto Underground Cinema with a 35mm screening of the Canadian cult classic Heavy Metal on Feb. 17th at 7pm.
Directed by Yellow Submarine animator Gerald Potterton and featuring a stellar cast of canuck voice talent (John Candy, Jackie Burroughs, Eugene Levy), this anthology film, based on the famous sci-fi and fantasy pulp magazine of the same of the name, has endured as both a cult attraction and as a highly influential slice of 1980s animated insanity. It is also responsible for many a fantasy of flying a 1960 Corvette through space.
Heavy Metal repeats the following Sunday at 9:30pm.
Tickets $8.
