This October, SUPER-HORROR-RAMA! returns to Sideshow Gelato in Lincoln Square for three fright-filled nights programmed by Matt Carr of the Music Box Theatre to celebrate the filmmaking and marketing genius of William Castle! Bring your friends and make new ones as we chat about all things horror, feast on sideshow-inspired gelato (10% discount for attendees), and enjoy a recreation of the gimmicks that made William Castle a legend!
Every night includes a Social Hour with live music spun by DJ Invicta, a Surprise Short Feature in keeping with the themes of the films, killer Giveaways donated by House of Movie Monsters and The Shadowboxery for the first folks who answer our trivia questions correctly, and a brand new Video Intro by Drive-In Asylum, a fanzine exploring classic eras of horror, sci-fi, cult, and exploitation films through vintage newsprint ads.
2 Limited Edition Pinback Buttons are included with every ticket, with new designs each week!
THE FILMS
In HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL, a devious millionaire (Vincent Price) invites five desperate people to his modern mansion for "food and drink and ghosts," not to mention $10,000 for anyone who spends the night and survives! In MR. SARDONICUS, a dastardly baron discovers his face is frozen in a gastly grin after he robs his father's grave and sees the horrifying facial expression on the corpse! In THE TINGLER, a mad scientist (Vincent Price) discovers the cause of the spine-tingling feeling we experience in states of terror is a centipede-like rapid growth parasite that can be extracted!
