“The funeral is about to begin.” ⚰️🩸In just one week, our Halloween on Screen series launches with our annual screening of F. W. Murnau’s NOSFERATU (1922) — this year featuring live accompaniment by Silent Orchestra. And that’s just the beginning of the fearsome festivities! Next weekend, Count @goredevol will present a 45th anniversary screening of THE EVIL DEAD (1981), and @bloodymayhemtheatrical will provide a live shadowcast for THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW, in tribute to the late Tim Curry. From October 23 through November 5, you can also catch horror favorites SUSPIRIA (1977), DRACULA, BEETLEJUICE and CARRIE, alongside spooky cinema and cult classics like KWAIDAN, TRAIN TO BUSAN, THE RING, PHANTASM: REMASTERED and more. 🎟️ Halloween on Screen in our bio for tickets. by @afisilvertheatre
