Overview
The lights dim, the film projector whirs...and blood splatters the side of your face! Don't worry, it's just corn syrup. Probably... Welcome to Saturday Fright at the Movies, where the projector is stuck on mayhem and thirteen B-movie tales are lurching off the screen. In the flickering light of this hallowed multiplex, you'll witness outrageous creature features and gritty found footage, nostalgic popcorn slashers and haunted VHS tapes. Run screaming down the aisles with intergalactic zombie unicorns, tentacled rock-gods, brat-packs of unearthly trick-or-treaters, a goo-monster with an existential crisis, and one starry-eyed coroner as he meets-and-greets his favorite masked maniac. Think you have the popcorn to survive the fright? Then grab your machete and your 3D glasses, because at this neon horror fest, the special effects are gory, the monsters are relentless, and the final girls have studied all the classics.
