You can watch a movie anywhere these days: your phone, Xbox, iPad, iPod and whatever Apple decides the next iProduct should be (iPants gets my vote - hip yet functional). But despite all the advances in movie-watching technology, there's nothing quite like gritty classic gore projected on the big screen in original 35mm film to a room full of horror nerds. Justin Giallo knows this, which is why he invented the Grindhouse Theater Film Series at The Grand Cinema. This weekend, Giallo - oh boy get ready to crap your pants - will screen the sickest and most violent of all the '80s slasher movies, PIECES "uncut." Get ready to crap your other pair of pants because film critic Joe Bob Briggs will host Saturday's screening. That's right, the opinionated "Original Drive-In Reviewer" will be in the house. Expect a free raffle, trivia with prizes and screams.

GRINDHOUSE THEATER PRESENTS PIECES, 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday, May 24-25, The Grand Cinema, 606 S. Fawcett, Tacoma, $12, 253.593.4474
