Events It's Happening Tonight!

REAL COUNTRY—I don't care if you don't like country music: the Caleb Klauder Country Band is the best live band in Portland. When this crack team of ace players lets 'er rip, the dance floor explodes in a hullabaloo of twangin', twistin', good old-fashioned American music. Don't miss the expert yodeling of opening band Petunia and the Vipers. NL
The Spare Room, 4830 NE 42nd, 9 pm, $10
DOUBLE DARK—The Portland International Film Festival is wrapping up this week, and tonight offers a final stab at dabbling in the darker end of the PIFF pool. Snowtown is a masterful and deeply unsettling dramatization of real-life serial murders in Australia, and Great Britain's Kill List—a horror thriller about two hired killers—screens at PIFF After Dark. Sleep well! MS
Snowtown, Lloyd Mall 8, 2320 Lloyd Center Mall, 6:30 pm, $10; Kill List, Cinema 21, 616 NW 21st, 11:30 pm, $10
