Tonight, we kick off our Halloween-o-Thons at a Movie Palace with a horror double from two singular directors.
First up is Tim Burton's amazing, horrific, incredibly dark take on the American folk tale Sleepy Hollow. Here, Ichabod Crane is re-imagined as a New York Policeman who comes to 18th century upstate New York's creepy village Sleepy Hollow to investigate a series of de-capitations.
Plagued himself by traumatic memories of his mother, Crane soon finds that the murderer (Christopher Walken in yet another super creepy great turn) may have supernatural powers.
One of Burton's most underrated masterpieces, full of the visionary cinema of his first period while darkening to the point of hellishness the tone and atmosphere, Sleepy Hollow is a Halloween blast to be re-discovered.
We follow it up with Francis Ford Coppola's great (and surprisingly faithful) adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula. We've all seen this vampire tale in countless iterations. What separates Coppola's take and puts it at the cinematic head of the class is it's incredible experimental cinema.
Coppola and his screenwriter James Hart keep Stoker's novelistic structure of letters, first hand accounts, etc as a way to tell the story while Coppola constantly introduces exhilarating movie flourishes like superimpositions, under and over cranked shots, horrific special effects, with the help of world class cinematographer Michael Ballhaus.
And if that weren't enough, the whole movie is powered by a totally committed performance from Gary Oldman as the vampiric yet romantically frustrated count and aided by great turns by Winona Ryder, Keanu Reeves, Anthony Hopkins, among many others.
Join as we kick off our October doubles in a movie palace with two movies that are a total spooky blast!
Best always,

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS FOR OUR IN-DOOR THEATER SCREENINGS
REFUNDS:
We can offer refunds up to 24 hours before showtime. Please request a refund through Eventbrite and we will process ASAP. After that, no refunds. Sorry.
However if something last minute comes up and you can’t make the screening, for whatever reason, just write us at: [email protected] and we’ll offer you complimentary tickets to a future screening.
WHY ARE THE TICKET PRICES HIGHER THAN NORMAL?
In order for us to re-open, maintain health protocols (which includes operating at only 50% capacity), and screen movies on 35MM, we need to temporarily raise our ticket prices. We apologize.
However, if you could look at this as partially helping Secret Movie Club re-open indoor theaters and 35MM film screening, we would be eternally grateful.
As we can increase capacity, we will IMMEDIATELY LOWER ticket prices.
If you could look at this as all of us being in this together, we WILL remember your kindness.
HELPFUL MILLION DOLLAR THEATER MOVIE PALACE PARKING TIPS:
If you are attending all movies on any given day (the double or triple feature), you can go to ADD ONS and pre-order an all day $6 Grand Central Parking Lot Pass. The Grand Central Parking Lot is at the corner of 3rd Street and Hill Street just 1 block from the Million Dollar Theater entrance on 3rd & Broadway.
Folks just attending one feature can also park at this lot and as long as you grab food/drink from GCM you can get a 90 minute validation stamp that will help the cost of parking.
HOW WILL OUR STAFF MAKE SURE THE THEATER IS AS SAFE AS POSSIBLE:
We will have staff in the theater (on both the ground and balcony levels) at all times who make sure everyone is wearing masks and obeying protocols. We will have signage at entrance, markings at concessions, restrooms, etc so folks keep 6 ft distance at all times.
Anyone not observing safe protocols will kindly be asked to leave. On top of this, we’ll be making announcements at the head of each screening to make sure everyone understands the rules & regs!
