Cinefamily presents our favorite annual Halloween tradition: the spine-tingling horror of The Tingler,
William Castle’s weirdo masterpiece of gimmickry about a lobster-shaped
monster that feeds on terror within the human body! Aside from being
the first film to use LSD as a plot device, the original theatrical run
was presented in “Percepto,” whereby theater patrons were administered
buzzer shocks in their seats, to simulate the monster’s attack. The
result, of course, was giddy insanity, as star Vincent Price’s voice
urges patrons to “scream for your lives!” As if that wasn’t enough, The Tingler
features a major subplot based on our very own Silent Movie Theatre and
its original owners, the Hamptons. Feel a tingle up your spine as you
watch these scenes set in the very location where you are sitting—and
maybe a tingle on your tuchas when we shock you Castle-style with real
wired seats!

For this night only, Guillermo del Toro: At Home with Monsters will remain open after the museum closes. Admission to Guillermo del Toro: At Home with Monsters from 5 pm to 8 pm is included with movie ticket purchase. Please note that all other museum galleries will close at 5 pm.
In James Whale’s follow-up to his 1931 Frankenstein, Mary
Shelley reveals that the main characters of her novel have survived. Dr.
Frankenstein (Colin Clive) is urged by the mad Dr. Pretorius (Ernest
Thesiger) to build Frankenstein’s monster a female companion. The
monster (Boris Karloff), meanwhile, discovers joy, tragedy, and, most
frequently, fear-driven hatred in his interactions with humans. The
monster only wants companionship, but he remains misunderstood and
loathed because of his appearance.
