Grab a slice and skate on down to The Frida Cinema as Moviebusters presents a very special screening of the 1990 cult classic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turles!
Before superheroes ruled the multiplex, four brothers from the New York sewers saved the world with martial arts and heart. Director Steve Barron’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was a box-office surprise and a practical-effects marvel. Produced on the edge of indie ingenuity, the film blended Jim Henson’s Creature Shop wizardry with street-level grit, creating a tone that felt mythic. Beneath the pizza jokes and wisecracks was something sincere–growing up in a hard (shelled?) city.
