CISCO PIKE in 35mm

The
Grindhouse Film Festival presents a rare 35mm print of this 1972
existential cult classic. A tribute to Kris Kristofferson
(1936-2024).
CISCO PIKE (1972) Kris Kristofferson stars as Cisco
Pike; a musician who falls on hard times, and starts dealing drugs. When
he gets busted by a crooked cop (Gene Hackman), he's blackmailed into
selling off 100 kilos of marijuana in one weekend in order to get the
charge dropped. With his drug-addled former bandmate (Harry Dean
Stanton) in tow, Cisco hits the streets with his guitar case full of
weed, and his soul swirling down the drain. Co-starring Karen Black and
Doug Sahm.
