Lucio Fulci’s THE BEYOND!
Wednesday And Thursday October 23rd And 24th At 7:30pm
In 1927, artist and warlock Schweick works on a painting in Room 36 of the Seven Doors Hotel, in New Orleans, Louisiana. He protects one of the seven gates of hell, which if opened, will bring about the end of the world and the death of mankind. He is dragged from his room by a lynch mob to the hotel basement and killed for practicising black magic. Meanwhile, a white-eyed woman reads from the ancient tome "Eibon", prophesizing the opening of one of the seven gates of hell.
In 1981, Liza Merrill inherits the hotel and moves from New York City to refurbish and reopen it. A worker later glimpses a white-eyed woman through a window and falls off his scaffolding. Local doctor John McCabe takes the injured man to hospital. The bell for Room 36 rings, but as the hotel has yet to open, Liza dismisses it as malfunctioning. A plumber, Joe, later investigates the lack of running water. In the flooded basement, he uncovers a bricked off area and accidentally opens the gate to hell. He is attacked by a ghoul, blinded, and killed. The bodies of both Joe and Schweick are discovered by a maid, Martha, and are taken to the local hospital morgue.
