All night Horror Marathon a frighteningly good deal
For $20 you could be scared (or amused depending on your personality and tolerance for scares) for a whole night this weekend.
On Saturday, Oct. 24 at 9 p.m. the 3rd annual Horror Marathon (“Horrorfest III”) kicks off at the Little Art Theatre in Yellow Springs.
This year’s lineup includes: Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds, Roman Polanski’s Repulsion, Re-Animator, Shaun of the Dead, the original Friday the 13th, Night of the Living Dead and the area premiere of The House of the Devil [click for trailer - if you aren’t too scared!].
Yes, you read that correctly. There are 7 horror movies in that lineup. That means you’re seeing each movie for less than $3 each if you break it down.
In addition to the movies, there will be a costume contest with prizes and numerous horror movie trailers (new and old).
Tickets can be purchased now using PayPal or you can get them at the door. The first movie starts at 9:30 p.m. Don’t forget your pillows!
