    In the last several decades of our cultural history, NO ONE has provided more laughter and sheer, unbridled FUN than "Weird Al" Yankovic. Al's humble beginnings as a brilliant song parodist have led to platinum albums, three Grammy Awards, countless international tours and media appearances and -- last but not least -- the most hilarious movie to ever bust mankind's collective gut: UHF!!

    In 1989, funnybones were splintered by the millions in this insane cinematic assault on TV and everything else, starring Al as hard-luck entertainment warrior taking on an evil corporate overlord! Along for the ride is a spazztacular assortment of '80s/'90s comedy luminaries, taking uproarious swipes at everything from Rambo to Gandhi! It's the only movie that will make you laugh until your skull falls off, and YOU will see it with its star "Weird Al" Yankovic IN PERSON at the beautiful historic Paramount Theatre!

    The screening will be preceded by a Sing-Along Celebration of his timeless music videos and followed by a full live Q&A with the man himself! All this plus an avalanche of other surprises, including Twinkie Wiener Dog Sandwiches at a UHF-themed after-party* at The Highball! Truly the wildest and most entertainment-packed event in Alamo history, destined to keep the 12-year-old in you satisfied until the END OF TIME!!

    UHF Afterparty at the Highball is open to all ticket-holders first-come, first-served, as capacity allows

    Rated PG-13; Children 6 and up must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. No children under the age of 6 will be admitted.
