But the police don’t believe in monsters, and charge Helen with the crimes. And the only one who can set her free is Candyman.
NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD
Monday, October 31 at 7:30 PM
A deceptively simple tale of a group of strangers trapped in a farmhouse who find themselves fending off a horde of recently dead, flesh-eating ghouls, George Romero’s claustrophobic vision of a late-1960s America literally tearing itself apart rewrote the rules of the horror genre, combined gruesome gore with acute social commentary, and quietly broke ground by casting a black actor (Duane Jones) in its lead role. This is the 4K restoration of George Romero’s classic, one screening only on Halloween night!
