7:00PM – It: Chapter One

Pennywise the Clown just loves to play, and the children of Derry, Maine are about to find out that “we all float down here” in this terrifying big screen adaptation of Stephen King’s nightmarish bestseller. In the summer of 1989, a group of bullied kids band together to battle an ancient, shape-shifting evil that emerges from the sewer every 27 years to prey on the town’s children, and when they get a load of the nasty, bloodthirsty Pennywise and his bag of ghoulish tricks, the circus of horrors is about to begin … big time! (Dir. by Andy Muschietti, 2017, USA, 135mins., Rated R)

9:30PM – American Psycho

Slick Wall Street hustler Patrick Bateman loves classy furniture, expensive designer clothes and the hits of Huey Lewis and the News. Unfortunately, he also loves vicious murder, psychotic mayhem … and the hits of Huey Lewis and the News. Christian Bale literally kills it as the well-dressed, gym-pumped maniac in this brutally shocking and bloody hilarious satire of ‘80s go-go-greed run amok, based on the controversial novel by Bret Easton Ellis and directed by Mary Harron (I Shot Andy Warhol). Yes, it’s Hip to be Square, but it’s also downright dangerous … unless you have the right business card, of course. (Dir. by Mary Harron, 2000, USA, 101mins., Rated R)

11:10PM – Basket Case (New 4K restoration!)

What’s in the basket? The world is just dying to find out in this gloriously gory gutter-trash horror symphony from the director of Frankenhooker, filmed in the bowels of Times Square and chock-full of demented fury. Duane and his brother Belial are ex-Siamese twins who arrive in New York with a purpose – revenge against everyone! The only catch is that Belial is a telepathic monstrosity who lives in a wicker basket, and he’s got some very, very bad ideas. Filled with real-life early-‘80s NYC sleaze, stop-motion shocks, and non-stop sicko fun, Basket Case plays out like Herschell Gordon Lewis directing Freaks on the set of Taxi Driver! (Dir. by Frank Hennelotter, 1982, USA, 91 mins., Not Rated)

12:40AM – The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 (35mm print!)

After a decade of silence … the buzz is back! Leatherface and Company are back on the scene and ready to rip it up in Tobe Hooper’s over-the-top, black comedy splatter sequel to the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre that finds nutty Texas Ranger Dennis Hopper joining forces with a radio DJ named Stretch to hunt down the Lone Star State’s most demented cannibal clan and send them all straight to hell! Next time you’re in Texas, don’t try the chili … (Dir. by Tobe Hooper, 1986, USA, 101 mins., Not Rated)

2:20AM – From Beyond (35mm print!)

Science meets Splatter and things are going to get pretty wild when a pair of mad doctors fool around with the human pineal gland via their new device, The Resonator, accidentally unleashing nasty, shapeshifting monsters from another dimension that proceed to mutate, mutilate and stimulate their victims’ sexual fantasies in director Stuart Gordon’s slimy, slithering, Freudian follow-up to Re-Animator, based on a short story by H.P. Lovecraft and starring genre faves Jeffrey Combs and Barbara Crampton. Humans are such easy prey! (Dir. by Stuart Gordon, 1986, USA, 85 mins., Rated R)

3:50AM – Tokyo Gore Police

The streets of futuristic Tokyo are about to get splattered when a vengeful policewoman battles an army of horrifically mutating cyborgs in this deranged body-horror gore classic from Japan! In the near future, the Tokyo Police Corporation wages a bloody war with the Engineers, a genetically modified group of bizarro mutant super-criminals who can bio-fuse and implant weapons into their anatomy (watch out for those deadly crotch rockets!). But sword-wielding policewoman Ruka is ready to slice and dice her way through the freaky criminal underworld as she seeks vengeance for the murder of her police officer father, and that’s when the eye-blowing, chunk-spewing, head-exploding insanity really kicks in! (Dir. by Yoshihiro Nishimura, 2008, Japan, in Japanese with English subtitles, 110 mins., Not Rated)

5:40AM – Demons

Moviegoing can be murder when a group of random people is invited to a late-night screening of a mysterious horror film, only to find themselves trapped inside the theater with a horde of ravenous demons determined to eat, possess and generally make their lives a living hell on Earth in this utterly insane Italian shocker that both celebrates and annihilates the joys of the theatrical experience! A gory orgy of cinema-based carnage, from the director of Delirium. (Dir. by Lamberto Bava, 1985, Italy, dubbed in English, 88 mins., Not Rated)
