About this Event

Join Tobener Ravernscroft for an afternoon of vampires, free legal advice and a fundraiser in support of Movement Legal. We will screen the other great Vampire film of 2025, Landlord at New Parkway Theater!

If vampires need an invitation to enter your home, what happens when they own it? Remington Smith’s 2025 Landlord, part crime drama and part horror film, follows a bounty hunter who moves into a rundown apartment complex to discover something strange is happening with the tenants. If you like your social commentary with a bucket of blood, this is a film you can sink your teeth into!

First time director and writer Remington Smith will be in attendance for a special appearance.
This is a free event with a suggested donation of $10-$20. All donations go towards Movement Legal, a housing non-profit who spearhead policy development and impact litigation advancing the tenant movement.

After the film, tenant attorneys from Tobener Ravenscroft LLP will host a FREE Tenant Rights Legal Clinic in the mezzanine for attendees with real-life housing questions. Tenants will be able to receive legal guidance from experienced housing attorneys on issues such as:

  • Rent increases
  • Eviction notices
  • Repair issues and reasonable accommodations
  • Emotional support animals
  • Discrimination or harassment by a landlord or property manager
  • Landlord retaliation


Food and beer will be available for purchase at the café.

12:00 PM – Doors open
