Frightful 80s Drive-In Cinema 2021

Overview

The spookiest time of the year is here, which means different things to different people. Perhaps you think you're never too old to don a costume and go trick-or-treating. Maybe you just like the excuse to eat plenty of lollies. Or, you could enjoy diving headfirst into as much horror viewing as you can manage.

For folks in the latter category — and those who like dressing up, too — the Georges River Council is hosting the type of event you'll want to add to your calendar. On Saturday, October 30, it's celebrating Halloween by bringing back its Frightful 80s Drive-In Cinema, which'll be free to attend at Donnelly Park in Connells Point.

As for what you'll be watching, this pop-up drive-in is screening 80s vampire classic The Lost Boys. Get ready for a blonde-haired Kiefer Sutherland, not one but two Coreys (Haim and Feldman), and a tale of teenagers and the undead set in a Californian beach town.

Entry opens at 5pm, with the film kicking off at 7.30pm. There are no bookings or tickets, so arriving early to nab a spot is recommended.

Also, if you deck out your car in a costume — yes, you read that correctly — and you can win a prize for the best-dressed vehicle.
