U.S. | 96 mins | Dir.
James Signorelli | 35mm Print Curtesy of the Academy Film Archive
From Hollywood to Las
Vegas, from screaming gremlins to campy schtick to witchy graveyard warfare,
ELVIRA, MISTRESS OF THE DARK is busting at the seams with morbid and monstrous
misadventure.
HELLRAISER (1987)
U.S. | 94 mins | Dir.
Clive Barker | 35mm
An old family home
holds untold mysteries... and horrors for Larry Cotton and his wife, Julia.
Floorboards that rattle. Rooms that absorb blood. The heavy and haunting air of
things long past and better left forgotten. All fueled by the fugitive spirit
of Larry's brother, Frank - who hovers halfway between this world and the next,
between extreme pleasure and excruciating pain. And between family devotion and
deadly instinct for survival.
Slowly, the old family
home begins to swallow the Cottons. And there is no escape... for secret
alliances and murderous seductions have been made which will propel the Cotton
family into the horrifying and shocking conclusion of HELLRAISER.
CREEPSHOW 2 (1987)
U.S. | 92 mins | Dir.
Michael Gornick | 35mm
The masters of the macabre
STEPHEN KING and GEORGE A. ROMERO welcome you to CREEPSHOW 2.
Join our old friend,
the rotting creep himself, as he introduces his latest tales of horror.
CREEPSHOW 2 - a deliciously wicked roller coaster ride that will plunge you
into the heart of darkness and to the very brink of madness. Where modern day
punks receive an evil dose of frontier justice. Where a harmless swimming party
can turn into a horrific and bloody nightmare into a carnivorous terror.
Just when you thought
it was safe to come back to the movies, along comes a fright-fest like
CREEPSHOW 2.
LEATHERFACE: THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE III (1990)
U.S. | 85 mins | Dir.
Jeff Burr | 35mm
A pair of college
students driving coast to coast are lured off the main highway and on to a deserted
Texas road. Here, they are stalked by LEATHERFACE and his demented family... a
bizarre cannibalistic clan with blood on their minds. Their only chance for
escape is a survivalist with enough firepower to blast LEATHERFACE and the rest
of his grizzly predators to hell. A depraved shocker of intense terror from the
gruesome beginning to the bloody finish.
HOUSE (1986)
U.S. | 95 mins | Dir.
Steve Miner | 35mm Print Courtesy of the Academy Film Archive
Cast into a sinister
otherworld, looking into the void of uncertain death, in the darkness, one man
grapples with terrible unseen forces to save his sanity and his only son. HOUSE
- the nightmare is real, the torture has returned and they have come to DESTROY
Roger Cobb (William Katt)!
Cobb, long overdue for
a new horror novel, begins work instead on a different project - a book based
on his experiences in Vietnam. In part, the new project is a way of purging
himself of the horrors that he himself experienced while there. But what begins
as an ambitious fiction experiment soon deteriorates into a seething and
terrifying reality.
Gripped by graphic
nightmares, haunted by strange and threatening phenomena, and rattled by
hideous visions, his sanity gives way to a neurotic frenzy. And only by
protecting his son is he able to overcome the irrational madness and
all-consuming fear of HOUSE.
BLOOD FEAST (1963)
U.S. | 67 mins | Dir.
Herschell Gordon Lewis | 35mm
The story of Fuad
Ramses, maniac Egyptian caterer, was the most tasteless film ever made when it
was released in 1963, and was the first movie to use explicit gore. The only
thing more appalling than the bloody special effects is the acting, especially
the starring performance of Playmate Connie Mason, who established a standard
for airhead bimbos that still holds up today.
THE STUFF (1985) [Rare Pre-Release Cut]
U.S. | 93 mins | Dir.
Larry Cohen | 35mm Print Courtesy of the Academy Film Archive
It's smooth and
creamy! It's delicious! It isn't filling! It's taken the country by storm...
and it KILLS! It's THE STUFF!
The newest taste
sensation is outselling ice cream two-to-one and merchants can't keep up with
the voracious demand. In order to save their failing businesses, an ice cream
industry saboteur and a junk food mogul attempt to uncover the manufacturing
secrets of THE STUFF. They soon discover the horrifying truth about THE STUFF -
that it is a living and all-consuming parasite that turns its hosts into
walking zombies!
Threatened on all
sides and trusting no one, they suddenly find themselves in the middle of a
last-ditch effort to ward off this invasion of the brand-name body snatchers
and to save the country from the grip of this insidious and monstrous dessert!
Plus a very special MYSTERY FEATURE!
