Take a time machine to grindhouse-era sleaze at the Nighthawk in Williamsburg, which is showing “The Honeymoon Killers” (Aug. 23), a 1970 thriller based on the lives of Martha Beck and Ray Fernandez, otherwise known as the Lonely Hearts Killers.

Laptop, schmaptop: See it big in “See It Big,” a series dedicated to 70-millimeter films now at the Museum of the Moving Image in Queens. The disaster film is a horror-adjacent genre that warms my fear-seeking heart, so I’d go with a progenitor: “Airport,” (Aug. 25-26), the 1970 camp-as-heck drama with a starry cast that includes Burt Lancaster, Dean Martin and Jacqueline Bisset.

Brooklyn’s Spectacle Theater is known for its out-in-left-field repertory programming. Its Dark Side of Summer series hits a Gen X home run with “Cutting Class” (Aug. 19 and 24), a wacky 1989 high school slasher-comedy starring a baby-faced Brad Pitt and a sourpussed Roddy McDowall.

“What better way to cool down in the sweltering August heat than by watching two chilling black-and-white gay serial killer flicks?” That’s how Anthology Film Archives bills its experimental double feature on Aug. 18, part of the Narrow Rooms series of subversive queer cinema. On tap are “Dead Dreams of Monochrome Men” (1989), a wordless cinematic adaptation of a theater piece about the serial killer Dennis Nilsen, and “Pig” (1998), a short film about a ritual murder.
