Predictive Gaming For Substandard Films

Predictive Gaming for Substandard Filmsis an evening of entertainment that incorporates game show elements into a screening of a "so-bad-it's-good" style movie. Halfway between Mystery Science Theater 3000 and Scene It!, Predictive Gaming invites movie fans to place bets on the plot of a campy B-movie throughout the screening in hopes to take home fabulous prizes - like Schubas, Lincoln Hall & Metro guest list spots & saki gift certificates! So as to prevent precocious predictors from premeditating their prizewinning, the film being screened will not be announced in advance, but bad movie fans (and game show enthusiasts) must trust that saki has dug up a real winner!

Predictive Gaming for Substandard Films, the bad movie game show, is Friday, January 20th at
8pm at saki. RSVP on the book of faces if you wanna be social about it...! As with all our events, Predictive Gaming is FREE & BYOB if you've got your ID.

Christmas Mansion Fun Times!

We'd love to give you our own version of how the saki After Hours Holiday Programme went, but the slideshow on the TimeOut Chicago website reminds us that a picture is worth a thousand words. So take a look at a few thousand words.

saki After Hours: Christmas Mansion!

saki is proud to announce the latest in its After Hours series: A Christmas Mansion Holiday Party. The time when all is bright, merry, and joyous, when movies and television remind us of the true meaning of the season. And we all warm a little in our hearts even as the biting freeze of a winter's day relentlessly attacks us like falling icicles from a shaken tree. On Saturday, December 17th, you can add one more bringer-of-good-tidings to that list of nostalgia driven entertainment when you come to enjoy saki's Christmas Mansion Party with performances by Ami Saraiya & the Outcome and Bob Dey's Tank Engine Man. If ever you wished that life could be more like it is in the movies, let us be your Christmas Genie. Below is a list of exactly what you won't want to miss.

The Party:

- sweater contest

- egg nog, snacks, other tastes of the season

- cookie exchange (bring your own cookies and share with others)

- Christmas Freak Out Room (you'l have to come here and find out)

- sing alongs

- games and other small forms of entertainment

The Performances:

Ami Saraiya and the Outcome will be performing for the release of a brand new record on that day, just in time for Christmas!

Bob Dey's Tank Engine Man will, of course, make their customary After Hours appearance. However, they are currently holed up in the DC/DI Department of Records and Record Keeping working on their own recordings and will be beaming in via "in person" with a Special Christmas Message.
