The time is nigh for the #1 viral joke of the summer to either sputter away or go out in a blaze of glory. Of course, we mean the official
"Storm Area 51" event scheduled to go down Friday in Nevada.
Instead of Naruto-running your way into an arrest — or worse — at a top secret government facility, we've rounded up some suitably weird ways to spend your Friday right here in San Antonio.
Film buffs have two options.
First, they can can head to the Alamo Drafthouse for a special screening of Tim Burton's 1996 flop-turned-cult classic
Mars Attacks! $12, 7:25 p.m., Alamo Drafthouse Westlakes, 1255 S.W. Loop 410, drafthouse.com.
Or they can go to a free mystery screening held by the
Black Moon Society's newly debuted monthly film series Strange Cinema Club.
Free, 8 p.m., Mantle Art Space, 714 Fredericksburg Road, facebook.com/strangecinemaclub.
