PRESENTED ON A RARE 16MM PRINT! DIRECTOR DON MCBREARTY IN ATTENDANCE! PLUS SPECIAL GUESTS! 

 

Get ready to revel in Toronto circa 1983 (when sleaze reigned supreme) with this rare 16mm film print presentation of director Don McBrearty's lurid, violent, vile and stylish "Canadian Giallo" AMERICAN NIGHTMARE! A latex-gloved killer is scouring the streets - specifically that gloriously sex and trash choked stretch of Yonge Street north of Dundas - slashing women and anyone else who gets in his way. But there's a method to this madman's wave or murder, with each slaughter serving to hide a dark, sickening secret. Starring Lenore Zann (HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME), Alexandra Paul (CHRISTINE) and Michael Ironside (SCANNERS), produced by Paul Lynch (PROM NIGHT) and Ray Sager (PROM NIGHT 2) and featuring a chilling score by Paul Zaza (CURTAINS), this is one vintage Canadian shocker that delivers the gruesome goods. Director McBrearty and special surprise guests will be in attendance.

 

Presented by Horror-Rama, with a gorgeous 16mm print from Chris Alexander's archive.
