Wednesday Happenings

-- Ask any hip-hop head to name the best rap duo out today and there is very good chance the answer will be The Clipse. The Virginia crack rappers, and producer Pharrell's childhood friends, made their name on the mixtape circuit while their album lingered in major label limbo. Their slack, menacing delivery matches Pharrell's science fiction beats, with chilling results. Harper's Ferry, 158 Brighton Ave., Allston, 8 p.m. $25.

Movies

-- Without Halloween (1978), the holiday-themed slasher movie would never have emerged as a genre, and Hollywood's horror films would have run out of steam decades ago. Thank her or curse her as you prefer, but Jamie Lee Curtis -- stoned, scared, and pissed -- turns in a brilliant performance as damsel-in-distress-cum-avenging-angel. Brattle Theatre, 40 Brattle St., Cambridge. Tickets and showtimes.

Beer Dinners

-- Cambridge Common gives vegetarians some: a vegetarian beer dinner assembled by Beer Advocate's Candice Alstrom. Cambridge Common, 1667 Mass. Ave., Cambridge. $39.
