Sun Ray Cinema’s series “Blue Skies and Sunshine All Along the Way: The Films of David Lynch” caps off with what Lynch called his most spiritual film—“Eraserhead.”

The matinee will be preceded by a short or other Lynch-related ephemera. After building a loyal following in Jacksonville, Sun-Ray Cinema opened at Tampa’s University Mall last fall and has grown a new contingent of followers ever since.

Lynch, the filmmaker behind dark classics like Twin Peaks and Blue Velvet, died in January at the age of 78.

While Sun-Ray focuses on independent films, it does show big studio films, too. The theater also recently launched a special where it will buy entrance for a moviegoer who brings in a recent ticket stub from AMC Veterans 24—and good news, because this screening is included in the deal.

Tickets to see ‘Eraserhead’ at Tampa’s Sun-Ray-Cinema on Saturday, April 12 start at $6.05. Readers are invited to submit their own events to Creative Loafing Tampa Bay’s things to do calendar.
