Scream-a-Thon
If you like scary movies, you'll want to spook yourself silly at this big overnight 'Scream' marathon at The Astor.
Overview
Twenty-six years after a Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox and David Arquette-starring film about small-town murders thoroughly revitalised the slasher genre, the Scream franchise returned in 2022 to take another stab at cinema glory. Because some things just won't die in the horror realm (see also: the Halloween, Saw, The Grudge, The Ring and Child's Play sagas), the Ghostface killer yet again stalked Woodsboro, and also terrorised a scary movie that once more mixed slasher thrills with self-aware laughs — and was just called Scream, too.
Haven't already seen the new Scream in a cinema? That's the best place to see all horror movies, obviously, and it's where this fivequel is showing again on Saturday, March 5. Well, actually, by the time that The Astor Theatre's Scream-a-Thon works through the four other Scream flicks first, you'll actually be watching it in the early hours of Sunday, March 6.
If you like scary movies, you'll want to spook yourself silly at this big overnight marathon, which is showing the whole big-screen franchise. It all kicks off at 9pm, and a love of this Wes Craven-started franchise is obviously a must — and yes, you can expect to see folks wearing Ghostface masks, obviously.
