w/ ?♂️? & ? & ????? &??? (Screen 1: Heftier Stronghold, Screen 2: I Lean, Screen 3: Negate Nutmeat: Annul Jitters + Wick John)
No MoHA drive-in would be complete without a night that pushes the outer limits of its host’s sanity, and so the MoHA all-night marathon is back!! This time we’re doing 3 screens showing massive movie franchises!! On one screen we got those good hobbit boys trying to find a volcano (extended editions ?), on the other we’ve got those movies where it’s always a big nasty alien fighting a brunette who is often Sigourney Weaver but not always (we’re showing these in chronological order starting with the one that’s named after the guy who stole fire from the Gods. I just googled what that guy did I get why they called the movie that!), and on the final screen we’re showing two beloved trilogies! The first is a 90’s franchise about turtles doing karate and eating pizza, the second is about Keanu Reeves doing fighting and eating probably those gold coins they use for everything! “Whoa dog! Starting with the movie first and not mentioning the activity until now?? What gives Neil?” Keeping you on your toes reader! The activity is cool but I think makes more sense within the longness of the movies! It’s finish that thing night!! If you have a Covid project you’ve been slacking off on, bring it to work on in your car throughout the night! I’m talking anything! Your crochet masterpiece, your screenplay, your 2020 tax return, the perfect over easy egg! We are here for it and support you! We’ll be checking in on people’s projects every few hours whenever it feels like an okay time to pause all 3 movies!

PWR Video Movies Presents: Legend’s of Wrestle (sic)
Presented by Party World Rasslin’
Mush-mouthed monomania and weaponized furniture — that’s wrestling. What else is wrestling? Wrestling is the only real sport. It’s not just humans smacking into each other (thought that happens — a lot). It’s a live exhibition of naked, clashing spirits! Watch meatheads with no business holding a microphone scream their souls bare, and give them your heart. Feel the power of a humble artform that’s been around for longer than rock music. Become enchanted by the heroics, skullduggery, and utter mayhem. Discover a need you never knew you had! Party World Rasslin’s Commissioner Chris Monica presents matches and interviews designed to give a broad overview of the Glory of Pro Wrestling. Hysterical, exciting, raw, and life-changing, wrestling is really fun to watch with friends. See more sweat on human bodies then you thought possible and drink deep of some cask-strength glowering. Thrill to surprising athletics and – most importantly – experience some weird, indescribable moments will be with you long after the event has ended.
Party World Rasslin’ (PWR) is a giant psychedelic party about wrestling that is also, itself, a wrestling league. Our shows have grown since 2014 from small backyard parties for technoburnouts and noise-freaks into giant free warehouse megaspectaculars shaped by our roots in DIY movements across Texas. We love wrestling—we think it’s a perfect thing—and hope you can too.

We welcome the support of our allies and hope to forge strong connections and collaborative networks of resources with other social justice minded and sex worker positive organizations, individuals, and businesses in our city. We encourage and invite any sex workers who are committed to dismantling racism, anti-Blackness, colonialism, transphobia, trans/misogyny, ableism, class-oppression, and whorearchy to join us in creating a loving and supportive community of adult industry providers in Austin TX. Funds donated will be used to support mutual aid assistance for verified sex workers in our community, and to fund operational costs for our organization.
Come to our sexy car wash and screening of the movie Tangerine! Whether you’re here to watch the film or enjoy the sexy views from the wash, you’re in for a spanking good and squeaky clean time.

Sleepaway Camp
Presented by Bambi
Join us for a double feature of Sleepaway Camp (1983) and Sleepaway Camp II: Unhappy Campers (1988) Gather around the campfire or watch the hack and slash thrills from the comfort of your car! During the films, you’ll be able get to know Angela Baker, the survivor of a horrible boating accident which claimed the life of her father and injured her twin sibling – a horrific incident that scarred her family and left her in the care of her domineering, mentally-unstable Aunt. It was under her care that Angela was truly “born,” as, prior to this, a boy. Raised as a boy, and deeply confused about her gender, Angela was eventually sent away to Camp Arawak at age 14 in an attempt to help her integrate into youth culture. The act proved fatal, as young Angela suffered a complete psychological breakdown and began murdering her fellow campers and counselors. As she grew into a young adult, this tradition continued as Angela eventually became a counselor at the campgrounds herself, and she goes down a destructive path to murder her helpless campers to teach them valuable lessons on the harmfulness of bullying, lying, and…fornication in the woods (?) Here’s what you can expect: a subtitled viewing experience of both films, and 80’s tunes all night long! Gather ‘round a nice campfire and enjoy s’mores and scary story telling!
No car? Limited outdoor seating is available! Each socially distanced platform has 4 chairs. Blanket room will also be available for picnic style seating (bring your own blanket). Groups that are not remaining inside their car are limited to 3-4 people. Please limit mingling between groups. Port-a-potty restrooms will be available.

Back to life, back to… (a multisensory and gustatory evening!)
Presented by laura g. gutiérrez
Well, here we are again, saying goodbye to another sucky Summer (are you with me?). Let’s all pretend that a better time existed, one by the ocean that most of us can’t access now for various reasons (global pandemic, poverty, late-stage capitalism and the overdevelopment of beach zones and structural inequalities). This night is an invitation to travel through our eyes, our ears, and other modes of sensing, and to come back to life, as we watch the documentary Vuelve a la vida (Come back to life). This 2010 film by Carlos Hagerman is about a legendary scuba diver, Hilario Martínez, better known as Perro Largo (Long Dog), and his entanglements with a menacing shark and a top model from NYC during the Acapulco of the 1970’s. The film screening will be preceded by some Acapulco-themed songs and a “cooking” demo of “vuelve a la vida” (come back to life), a ceviche style dish whose name is borrowed to title the film. No tastings during the event because of Covid-19, but everyone can take home a print out of the recipe and the playlist. [The film has English subtitles for the Spanish-speaking parts].
Pues aquí de nuevo, despidiéndonos de otro verano mamón (¿están de acuerdo conmigo?). Vamos a hacer de cuenta que un tiempo mejor existió, uno cerca del mar que muches de nosotres no podemos acceder por varias razones: pandemia global, pobreza, capitalismo tardío, el desarrollo exagerado de las zonas playeras y sus desigualdades estructurales. Esta noche es una invitación a viajar mediante nuestros ojos, nuestros oídos, y otros modos de sentir y experimentar, y regresar a la vida mientras vemos el documental de Carlos Hagerman, Vuelve a la vida. Este documental de 2010 trata sobre el legendario buceador Hilario Martínez, mejor conocido como Perro Largo, y sus enredos con un tiburón y con una modelo de la ciudad de Nueva York durante los años setenta en Acapulco. Antes de la proyección habrá música con onda acapulqueña y una demostración de cómo se prepara el cóctel Vuelve a la vida. Dado los protocolos de salubridad por Covid-19, no habrá pruebas, pero se podrán llevar la receta a casa así como una lista de la música que sonará. [La película cuenta con subtítulos en inglés para las partes habladas en español].

OUTside of Society: A Night of Surreal Grotesque and Monsters in/out of the Closet
Presented by and for OUTsider Fest
Amidst the wanton wickedness of the weekend before All Hallows’ Eve, MOHA and OUTsider present a drive-in screening of 1989’s Society—a film in which the worst of the well-to-do get the terror treatment they deserve! Directed by Filipino-American, Brian Yuzna, Society is wild, body horror ride that unleashes all the absurdity, gore and garish of your ’80s/’90s fantasies/frightmares. A campy-cum-creepout class satire that serves up a frightful “fuck you” to the excesses and exploitations of yuppie culture of yore: With its tongue-in-cheek tagline of “the rich have always feed upon the poor,” Society is an outlandish sendup of status that strikes a startlingly salient note about how truly scary snobbery can be.
In honor of this fabulously frightening flick, in which the camp comes out to play and concealed identities creep their way out of the closet, let’s consider: Are the figures that lurk in the shadows the ones we should fear? Or is it the monsters in broad daylight who pose the most devilish dangers of all? Playing off the petrifying potentialities of evils un/seen, come indulge in a night of fantastical festivities, including a costume contest on the theme of (with due respect to Harry Benshoff) “Monsters in/out of the Closet”—let those deviant imaginations run wild ya vamps! Plus, a macabre music playlist curated by the gayazz ghouls of OUTsider, and other tricks and treats—all culminating in an interactive screening of Society that will set your spine all the way to tingle.
OUTsider is an Austin-based transmedia nonprofit that celebrates the bold originality and creative nonconformity of the LGBTQ+ communities through the presentation of provocative, overlooked and out-of-the-box film, dance, theater, performance art, music, writing and visual art.
Through its annual festival and conference, OUTsider unites queer artists, audiences and scholars from around the globe to exchange ideas, ignite conversations, transcend boundaries and experience new pleasures through artistic discovery.

Ruido/Noise presents Rhymin’ Drive-In! Our drive-in theater variety show experience where we pair independent filmmakers, music, and refreshments, along with a foreign language feature film.
For our 5th round our featured film will be Another Round (Danish: Druk, “binge drinking”)\] a 2020 black comedy-drama film directed by Thomas Vinterberg. Four high school teachers consume alcohol on a daily basis to see how it affects their social and professional lives.
Our musical guests will be the collective musical compilation from our project Regreso a Casa. It is an audiovisual compilation of musicians and audiovisual artists located in Argentina, the United States, Colombia, France and Venezuela, curated by Samuel Dario. The goal was to create an album full of memories of their culture, based on re-imaginings of songs that connect them with home.
Our featured independent short film will be Regreso a Casa, a dreamlike short film that travels through the psyche of its protagonist, Ausente, who decides to detach himself from the daily life of his postal office to travel through his psyche and dialogue with the memories evoked by the aroma of a coffee. Directed by Angélica Burgos Colls this is Ruido/Noise’s first film production to date and a sister project to our musical compilation.
There will be a pop-up dinner available to all drive-in attendees starting at 7:30pm and throughout the show. AREPA DEALERS are coming to slang some tasty treats your way. We will also have agua frescas, beer, water, and other refreshments provided by Plásticas Provisions.

Para nuestra quinta ronda, nuestra película destacada será Otra Ronda (Danés: Druk, “beber en exceso”)\] una película de comedia dramática negra de 2020 dirigida por Thomas Vinterberg. Cuatro profesores de secundaria consumen alcohol a diario para ver cómo afecta a su vida social y profesional.
Nuestros invitados musicales serán el recopilatorio musical colectivo de nuestro proyecto Regreso a Casa. Es una compilación audiovisual de músicos y artistas audiovisuales ubicados en Argentina, Estados Unidos, Colombia, Francia y Venezuela, curada por Samuel Darío. El objetivo era crear un álbum lleno de recuerdos de sus culturas, basado en re-imaginaciones de canciones que les conectan con su hogar.
Nuestro cortometraje independiente destacado será Regreso a Casa, un corto onírico que viaja a través de la psique de su protagonista, Ausente, quien decide desligarse de la cotidianidad de su oficina de correos para viajar a través de su psique y dialogar con los recuerdos evocados por el aroma de un café. Dirigida por Angélica Burgos Colls, esta es la primera producción cinematográfica de Ruido/Noise y un proyecto hermano de nuestra compilación musical.
Habrá una cena pop-up disponible para todos nuestros invitados al autocine empezando a las 7:30 p.m. y durante todo el espectáculo. Los AREPA DEALERS vienen a distribuir algunas delicias a tu manera.
