13 hours of horror (alas, no takers)...

I blasted my emailable friends/victims with this notice-invite earlier this week, and had some quick shared reminiscences over THE GATE and WEREWOLF, but alas, garnered no, "Hey, count me in!"s...

O well~

By the way, if you haven't seen NEAR DARK, check it out for a very fun and clever modern vampire road movie with a familiar trio of baddies, on loan to director Katherine Bigelow from then-husband (I believe) James Cameron. I first caught it at an all-nighter marathon at Somerville Davis way back in college. Pretty kickass. =)

13 hours of horror...

And I'm not talking about Sid & Marty Krofft's Pufnstuf on DVD! No—it's the Coolidge Corner Theater's HALLOWEEN HORROR MOVIE MARATHON! Warn your friends! The killing starts at midnight on Saturday and the screaming does't stop til Sunday afternoon, leaving you with time enough to reanimate and still make a brunch date *and* confession...

Tix are $20 for the 'thon, and $10 for the midnight double feature (LAST HOUSE & EQUINOX).

There are some old school and pop classics in this year's line-up...

Wes Craven's LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT - Kill the psychopaths! Vengeful parents mete out vicious justice to their child's killers. A family film.

NIGHT OF THE COMET - Shop til you drop! Valley girls are all that's left of humanity when everyone else is turned to dust by a comet's brush with our atmosphere. Well, valley girls and zombies.

THE GATE - Two kids discover an evil dimensional gateway in the backyard!

AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF IN LONDON - A satisfactory last-minute substution for NEAR DARK, which was originally scheduled. Okay, okay, you all know it's some good twisted werewolf fun =)

There's MORE, of course—check out the site for the low-down.

Anyone want to buddy up for a movie all-nighter? Do let me know =)

Keep on keepin on~

Also, for a more up-close and personal interactive horroriffic experience, check out Barrett's Haunted Mansion...

ALSO also, at the Brattle Theater in Harvard Square on Halloween - EVIL DEAD 2: DEAD BY DAWN!!!!
