established in 1920, is New York City's oldest
still operating movie theater and is located in the Inwood Manhattan Washington Heights area of the Northern most tip of the Big Apple on Broadway Blvd. and 181st Street.
Owned and operated by Jesus Nova, Mark Burgios and Nick Guadagno, this theater - in addition to popular current motion picture releases - does exciting stage and screen happenings such as their past art film series that was critically well received.
Yianni Stamas presents YOU on Stage & Screen:
Insanity Fest (NOTE this is not being held at Coliseum Cinemas but was inspired by it).
Although the InsanityFest.com event will not be occurring at Coliseum Cinemas at this time, it was none the less inspired by it.
You see, it is a little known fact that Coliseum is located within blocks of where many years ago once lived the widow of master escape artist and ghost buster Harry Houdini. Bess Houdini lived on Payson during the last ten years of her life in the 1930's and '40's. This means she likely would have attended Coliseum Cinemas during her decade of Inwood/Washington Heights residence. And during this ten year period, every Halloween religiously, on October 31st the anniversary of Houdini's mysterious death, she would hold a seance to try to bring back the spirit of her late husband. None were successful...until now?!
VideoFilmWeb.com Inc. is going to hold a stage and screen seance to bring back Houdini and is calling this documentary thriller, social network and live show InsanityFest.com - and YOU are invited to participate! Just call the midtown east VFW media studio at 212-308-1388 or sign up for the free newsletter. Sometimes the only way to improve the quality of LIFE is to bring back the DEAD!
