The Orchard’s going to have one crazy Swayze summer

Published 9:06 am Tuesday, May 5, 2009

The Orchard is going retro this summer.

During each weekend of the summer, it’ll be featuring a different throw-back movie to accompany its current weekly releases. It all kicks off May 15, starting with the retro-classic party flick “Dazed and Confused.”

“Aliens,” “Back to the Future,” “Raiders of the Lost Ark” and “Fight Club” are also on the list.

But as soon as those hot August nights roll around, moms of all ages and all stripes should swoon for one of the ultimate beefcakes — as the Orchard goes “Swayze Crazy” with showings of “Roadhouse” followed by the retro summer finale: “Dirty Dancing.”

Indeed, “Dirty Dancing” back on the big screen, in all its beehive hairdo, tight black T-shirt-wearing, hip-shaking, pompadouring glory.

Here’s the list:

“Dazed and Confused” opens May 15th

“Pink Floyd’s The Wall” opens May 29th

“Aliens” opens June 5th

“Labyrinth” opens June 19th

“Raiders of the Lost Ark” opens July 10th

“Fight Club” opens July 24th

“Back To the Future” opens August 7th

“Road House” opens August 14th

“Dirty Dancing” opens August 21st
