Hey there Los Angeles Fright fans! Time for another Friday Night Frights!
Like us on Facebook, if you dare! and Follow us on Twitter, if you double dare!
Our run of new films continues this Friday with the whacked-out John Dies At the End, the latest from the great Don Coscarelli (Phantasm series, Bubba Ho-Tep). Co-stars Chase Williamson & Rob Mayes will be here in person for a Q&A after the film!
Friday March 22th @ midnight.
Quoth the FNF power blurb:
If a horror flick that’s a cross between Buckaroo Banzai, Donnie Darko and Scott Pilgrim floats your boat — or if you just want to see the always-brilliant Paul Giamatti curse like a sailor, then you may have just found your new favorite midnight movie. Director Don Coscarelli (the demented mind behind Phantasm, The Beastmaster and Bubba Ho-Tep) brings his idiosyncratic style to the mind-bending novel by Cracked.com’s David Wong, and the results are a hilarious, clever, and frequently grotesque head trip. The tone’s set by the opening scene: a hypothetical logic problem involving a murder, a poorly-made axe, a giant insect, and a vengeful zombie. John Dies At The End then winds its crazy way through phantom doorways, a new drug that causes people to spontaneously explode, alien body snatchers, alternate realities, heroic dogs, a self-help guru/exorcist (Clancy Brown), a dogged cop (Glynn Turman), and David’s best friend: the titular and possibly doomed John. Totally fun stuff.
