Overview
Renegade cinema Tribal Theatre are once again turning their back on Jennifer Aniston's latest rom-com and instead bringing us some so-bad-its-good eighties horror movies.
The nostalgic zombies and vampires night will begin at 6.30pm with classic horror film The Evil Dead. Released in 1981, the film was controversial for its time due to the graphic depiction of violence and gore. In fact The Evil Dead was so disturbing that it was initially turned down by almost all U.S film distributors until it was bought by a European company at the Cannes Film Festival. The film was the first and last movie to ever be released at the cinemas and on VHS at exactly the same time. Evil Dead has since become a cult classic having been adapted into a comic book, stage musical and even a claymation.
Then, if your pants are still clean and your nails are still intact, at 8.15pm a screening of 1985 horror film Fright Night will commence. The vampire found in Fright Night isn't like the dreamy crush-worthy ones found in the Twilight saga. Rather than falling in love with you he'd prefer to kill you. Or at the very least scare the living daylights out of you – in an eighties sort of way.
