What you get from Akiva Shaffer’s The Naked Gun is a non-stop stream of laughs from your fellow audience members at a set of some of the most mindless jokes. And the best part is that you will be laughing along to the cacophony.

Something happened in Montreal this week. The long-awaited Something Fest occurred with its day passes completely sold out and the promise of 9 acts spread over 3 venues and 10 hours. The planning of the thing was something I was lucky enough to witness from the sidelines, and it cannot be understated what a triumph of community organizing Something Fest turned out to be. Arriving at the first venue and seeing the giant Something Fest banner hung behind the little DIY stage opened a new angle of appreciation for this city within me, and I strapped myself in for a whole day of music.

    The Fantasia Film Festival, the premiere international genre film festival that takes over Montreal’s Concordia Hall and surrounding area every summer, is back this year for the 29th edition, happening from July 17th to August 7th 2025.

North America's premiere genre film festival has returned to the downtown campus of Concordia University! From July 16 to August 3, the Fantasia International Film festival brings the most face-melting, eye-popping and awe-inspiring films to one of the most raucous filmgoing experiences around. CJLO's very own DJs are spinning music before each film in the Hall theatre, so make sure not to miss Andrew from Grade A Explosives, Angelica from BVST, Delia from The New Consonance, Donald from Eastern Promises, Jared from Ear2Ear, Jasn from Rigged Sessions and Zoe from Something for the Mood.
