Ti West’s "Pearl" is the leadoff title for an innovative monthly series with exclusive pint glass designs and themed menus dedicated to A24’s legendary catalog
Alamo Drafthouse Cinema is proud to announce the launch of A24 Cinema Club, a year-long partnership with the global entertainment company behind “Backrooms,” “Marty Supreme,” and last weekend’s release, “Primetime.” Kicking off this November with Ti West’s “Pearl,” A24 Cinema Club brings film fans together for a year-long “films with benefits” screening series featuring selections from A24’s legendary film library paired with a ticket bundle that includes brand new pint glass designs and a special A24-themed menu.
“Pint glass designs for the A24 Cinema Club line are truly limited editions, only available at these Alamo Drafthouse shows and nowhere else,” says Chaya Rosenthal, Chief Marketing Officer at Alamo Drafthouse Cinema. “It’s everything, everywhere, once a month. I geek out over A24 films just as much as our guests do, and getting to build merch this thoughtful and specific is one of the best parts of my job. A24 makes the kind of movies Alamo was built for.
This collection is how we celebrate that together.”
It all starts on Sunday, November 22nd (in most locations) with the 2022 instant classic “Pearl,” director Ti West’s prequel to his paean to porno, X. Set in 1918, “Pearl” follows Mia Goth’s farm girl as her dreams of movie stardom take a dark turn.
Every ticket sold to “Pearl” includes a collectible pint glass featuring striking designs by artist Chris Bilheimer depicting Pearl’s iconic axe and rather intimate encounter with a scarecrow.
Additional planned titles include:

Every A24 Cinema Club screening will feature a themed food or beverage menu inspired by the A24 library, including the Eddington Margarita, Everything Popcorn All At Once, Lady Bird Loaded Fries, The Florida Project Mahi Mahi Sandwich and the Green Knight Shake.
The A24 repertory series continues Alamo Drafthouse’s tradition of turning moviegoing into something more than simply sitting in the dark. Recent “films with benefits” collaborations have included the wildly popular TohoScope retrospective series that’s produced limited run, artist-driven designs for hats, sweatshirts, and a very highly-coveted Godzilla popcorn bucket. These events offer a standing invitation to revisit old favorites, discover something new, and to bring something unique and wonderful back home.
Tickets for “Pearl” with the exclusive pint glass are on sale now at drafthouse.com.
