MADCAP Theaters does it again with a new $8 Double Feature


Hey Phoenix horror fans!  Come check out Halloween (1978) and Night of the Living Dead (1968) this weekend at MADCAP!  $8 gets you in for both!

Presented by the always awesome and seriously spooky Midnite Movie Mamacita!

From their website:
Halloween (1978) In the small town of Haddonfield, Illinois, a teenage baby sitter tries to survive a Halloween night of relentless terror, during which a knife-wielding maniac goes after the town's hormonally charged youths. Director John Carpenter takes this simple situation and orchestrates a superbly mounted symphony of horrors. It's a movie much scarier for its dark spaces and ominous camera movements than for its explicit bloodletting (which is actually minimal).

Night of the Living Dead (1968). There's never been anything quite like George Romero’s original Zombie tour de force. The story is simple: Radiation from a fallen satellite has caused the dead to walk, and hunger for human flesh. Once bitten, you become one of them. And the only way to kill one is by a shot or blow to the head. We follow a group holed up in a small farmhouse who are trying to fend off the inevitable onslaught of the dead.

Both films are presented in 35mm.

Halloween is at 8 pm, Night of the Living Dead at 10.  Come on out and support independent theater!
