Cinespia

Cinespia has been a longtime favorite for summer outdoor movie screenings in L.A. Nowhere but in L.A. can you get to watch films right at a graveyard—the Hollywood Forever Cemetery. It's a little morbid, but film buffs can basically hang out and view movies near the grave sites (but not actually on the grave sites) of some of the biggest Hollywood stars. The best part is that you can bring a picnic basket with beer and wine while you lay out your blanket on the grassy field. And it attracts fun movie fans who sometimes dress up as their beloved characters from the films being shown. They always have a great lineup of cult classics. So far, they have flicks like Mulholland Dr. and Dazed and Confused on their list, and they'll be announcing more films later. Make sure to buy your tickets early online as they do sell out pretty quickly and get in line early for a good (and unobstructed) spot.

The times when gates open and movies start to vary, so please check Cinespia's website for more details. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased online. Hollywood Forever Cemetery is located at 6000 Santa Monica Blvd. in Hollywood.
