  • Overview

    Ed Blake is a balding middle-aged man who decides to buy an old movie theater, The Ritz, to shape it up into a retro 1950s music hangout. With the aid of loyal girlfriend Nancy, foreman Bruno, and assistant Marcus, Ed is able to assemble a construction team to plan to be on time for the grand reopening. But unknown to everyone, a disfigured character has lived in the passageways of the old theater since the 50s, occasionally popping out to murder an indigent or intruder that happens upon his domain.

1986 - The protest movement against the construction of the nuclear power plant in Brokdorf is on its last legs. Only one rural commune remains: the "Alternative Wohnkollektiv Regenbogen". For them, it could go on and on with endless consensus discussions, shearing sheep and naked communal bathing. One day, the lowland communards are joined by two city dwellers, Hanne and her son Niels. While Hanne gets used to scream therapy and raising vegetables surprisingly quickly - and even more quickly to the tantra games with commune guru Peter - Niels has less and less desire for the dogmatic commune rules. Out of defiance, he joins the violent nuclear power plant resistance, thus upsetting the tranquil chaos of the commune. The big bang, however, comes when a reactor explodes in distant Chernobyl. Exactly on the day Bobby Ewing dies, the petroleum prince from "Dallas" and series favorite of the commune.
