    Bowling News

    New bowling alley at Dallas' historic Lakewood Theater is ready to roll

    A much-anticipated bowling lounge is set to open in the Lakewood Theater.

     

     Bowlski's will open on Labor Day weekend, bringing an entertainment destination to the landmark theater. There'll be four stories of fun, including 10 bowling lanes, an arcade, a massive golf simulator, a video game room, and private karaoke.

     

    Bowlski's is the second location for the company founded in El Jebel, Colorado, in 2018. It’s an operation from Craig and Jen Spivey, who live in Lakewood and opened Bowlounge in the Design District in 2013 before selling their share of the company last year.

     

    At Bowlski's, there are bars on every level of the completely renovated Lakewood Theater:

     

       
    • The bowling lounge has a full bar with draft beer, cocktails, and wine.
    •  
    • A fourth-story bar called Flamingo Lounge is a speakeasy with a VIP vibe, cocktails, and a wide selection of scotch, whiskey, and champagne.
    •  
    • Through the Flamingo Lounge will be the Peacock Club, a members-only private barroom located in the original projection room. The original projection windows allow revelers to look down four stories to the bowling lanes below.
    •  
     

    The theater underwent a major renovation, but many aspects of the historic landmark have been preserved, including the neon spire and the famed original murals that bedeck the lobby and mezzanine.

     

    "It's all about the experience. Everywhere you look, you will see local history," says Jen Spivey.

     

    The former Arcade Bar has been transformed into a restaurant serving specialty pizza rolls, cheesesteak egg rolls, wings, sliders, and more.

     

    Drink menus give a nod to notable 420 strains with names such as Pineapple Express made with vodka, orange, and cranberry juices topped with Prosecco; and the Maui Wowie with rum, guava, and pineapple.

     

    Booze is also served in bulk. Shareable Old Fashioneds are delivered tableside in a wooden barrel. Plus, there is something called "shotskis," where four shot glasses are attached to a long snow ski so friends can take a simultaneous group shot, similar to a tradition from the Bravo TV show Watch What Happens.

     

    Bowling rates are $9 per game for adults, $7 for children, and $6 for seniors. Shoe rentals are $3.50.

     

    The arcade will be a haven for gamers who can enjoy big-screen sessions of games like Fortnite, Overwatch, and Smash Bros. There are also vintage arcade games and pool tables.

     

    Lakewood Theater is a historic landmark, and the Spiveys come with their own lineage with the theater. Jen's father Gene Haufler cofounded the Dallas band The Nightcaps, the legendary band of the 1960s, with Billy Joe Shine. The Nightcaps played the Lakewood’s 50th anniversary and many other occasions.

     

    "We have a lot of memories here," Jen says. "Having the opportunity to bring this landmark back to life as an entertainment destination for the neighborhood means so much. We can see the Lakewood Theater spire from our front porch. This is special for us."

     

    They'll host three opening parties on August 30-31 that require advance tickets purchased online. Tickets are $60 and include free play, appetizers, and free rein over all four levels.

    Lazy 'I Know What You Did Last Summer' remake hooks nothing but nostalgia

    Sarah Pidgeon, Madelyn Cline and Chase Sui Wonders in I Know What You Did Last Summer.

    When the original I Know What You Did Last Summer came out in 1997, it was riding the coattails of Scream, which came out in 1996. Like that film, it featured hot young actors of the time, albeit with a story that was much more standard than the inventive Scream. Still, it made enough of an impact for some studio executive to think it was worth reviving nearly 30 years later with its own legacy-quel.

    In the new I Know What You Did Last Summer, a group of five high school friends - Danica (Madelyn Cline), Ava (Chase Sui Wonders), Milo (Jonah Hauer-King), Teddy (Tyriq Withers), and Stevie (Sarah Pidgeon) - have reunited at the engagement party for Danica and Teddy on the 4th of July. While on an impromptu trip to watch fireworks on a twisty road in the nearby hills, Teddy goofs off in the middle of the road, causing a truck to swerve and drive off the cliff.

    A year later, having sworn to each other to not speak of the accident to anybody, they start getting stalked by a mysterious person in a fisherman’s slicker carrying a hook. With Teddy’s rich father, Grant (Billy Campbell), actively trying to cover up what his son did (as well as the fallout), it’s up to the group to figure out who is coming after them and how to stop that person.

    Written and directed by Jennifer Kaytin Robinson, and co-written by Sam Lansky, the film doesn’t try to reinvent the wheel; in fact, it barely builds something that can roll. It might just be the laziest and most incompetent attempt to capitalize on an existing piece of intellectual property. There is almost zero effort put into establishing a connection between the members of the friend group, making them feel like strangers for the entire film.

    It doesn’t help that the young male actors in the film - which grows to include Wyatt (Joshua Orpin), a new fiance for Danica - serve no purpose other than to be generically good-looking. The most impactful of the men in the film is the returning Freddie Prinze, Jr., who - along with Jennifer Love Hewitt - has his old character from the first two films shoehorned into the new story. The filmmakers undercut any good feelings from their return by giving them hardly anything to do and then having Hewitt deliver the line, “Nostalgia is overrated.”

    The film as a whole never has a sense of momentum. The inciting incident is so tame - they even attempt to save the driver before the truck goes off the cliff - that the guilt they feel and the anger of the person going after them doesn’t feel warranted. Once the attacks start, it is shocking at how low-energy the sequences are, providing no sense of suspense or thrills. The filmmakers resort to the lamest of horror movie tropes, turning the film into a paint-by-numbers affair.

    Cline (one of the stars of Netflix’s Outer Banks) and Wonders (The Studio on Apple TV+, Bodies Bodies Bodies) are the clear stars of the film, but their characters are made into inert scream queens, negating any acting talent they possess. Hauer-King, Withers, and Pidgeon don’t bring anything interesting to their characters, existing merely to have someone else for the killer to go after.

    Even the worst films can have some kind of redeeming value if you look hard enough, but the only thing I Know What You Did Last Summer has to offer is that it becomes so comically bad by the end that you can’t help but laugh at its ineptitude. Both fans of the original and fans of horror movies in general will feel cheated by the experience.

    I Know What You Did Last Summer opens in theaters on July 18.
