A small scale American Zoetrope for downtown New Yorkers, the Pioneer Theater is cinephile central in the East Village. Opened in 2000, the art house is best known for its foreign fare, local independent features and short film slam screenings. Housed in the lower depths of a popular pizzeria, the theater manages to mix big screen magic with living room comfort. Laid back and old school, it seats about 100 people. The screen is much smaller than multiplex size, but it's equipped with Dolby sound and you likely won't have to deal with rambunctious families of eight expecting 'Jurassic Park 6.' Instead, even money says that the person sitting next to you will be a filmmaker, film student or historian.

Loved it!!!

This is one of the best movies I've seen all year. I laughed out loud many times and for me, it takes a lot to get me to laugh. Not only is the movie funny but it's intelligent as well. It's a unique story that I found myself identifying very strongly with. And my wife said the same thing, so I guess this is a double endorsement. Bottom line: If you're looking for a film that's entertaining, unique and unpredictable, Chasing Erections is the film for you.
