Plazadrome presents NIGHT OF THE JUGGLER: Thursday, 8/21 9pm at @plazaatlanta NIGHT OF THE JUGGLER (1980) is a lost treasure of ‘dirty New York cinema,’ a genre of sweaty, sleazy, ferocious films shot on the streets of pre-Giuliani NYC in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s. Essentially unavailable for the last 45 years outside of a rare Media Home Video VHS, NIGHT OF THE JUGGLER returns to theaters thanks to a remarkable new 4K restoration from Kino Lorber. A contemporary of cult films like DEATH WISH (1974), THE WARRIORS (1979), CRUISING (1980), MANIAC (1980), and MS. 45 (1981), NIGHT OF THE JUGGLER is the tale of a father’s (James Brolin) relentless pursuit of the psycho who has kidnapped his daughter. Highlighted by some of the more perilous car chases and action set pieces captured on film, NIGHT OF THE JUGGLER is an uncompromising, adrenaline filled thriller that you don’t want to miss on the big screen. Introduction by tough-guy film authority Mike Malloy
