Oh, Right! Horror Movies Happening

 Don't forget we have a full page dedicated to horror films, special spooky screenings and any scary film festivals here. Below are some highlighted events...that aren't just Beyond Fest, because good luck getting tickets at this point.

Brain Dead Studios
$31.50

35mm can be beautiful, but 16mm is *personal*. Join Secret Sixteen founder Mike Williamson, Josh Miller (Killer Movies) and Bret Berg (Museum of Home Video) for a 12-hour blast of bleeding walls, oozing ectoplasm and houseguests from Hades — all from Secret Sixteen’s incredibly siqq collection of this wondrous film format.

Titles aren’t revealed until they unspool onscreen. What we can say is that this six-film marathon shows what you can expect when that real estate deal-of-a-lifetime turns out to be anything but: fetid basements, ice-cold exorcisms, nations of houseflies, family dysfunction, lost innocence, PTSD vapors, glowing eyes, cursed worms, stern matrons, pale children, slamming doors and demonic doorbells…ding dong, you’re dead!!
