SEASON'S GREETINGS
4 Min
Directed by Michael Dougherty
Written by Michael Dougherty
Synopsis: A youngster on the hunt for Halloween candy comes face to face with an unforeseen threat but all is not as it seems in this spirited effort that would go on to usher in the birth to Michael Dougherty's outstanding slice of Halloween-inspired anthology horror, Trick 'R Treat.
THE FRIGHTENERS
110 Min
Directed by Peter Jackson
Written by Fran Walsh, Peter Jackson
Produced by Peter Jackson, Jamie Selkirk
Starring Michael J. Fox, Trini Alvarado, Dee Wallace, and Jake Busey
Synopsis: Years before Peter Jackson unleashed his epic take on The Lord of the Rings upon the world, he would cut his teeth on creative, low- budget works of independent horror like Bad Taste, Meet the Feebles, and Dead Alive. Following a foray into new terrain with the brilliant Heavenly Creatures, Jackson would return to horror in 1996 with the ghostly gem, The Frighteners, a high energy, well-executed horror/comedy starring the great Michael J. Fox as a con man of sorts who teams with those beyond the grave and has them haunt the homes of unsuspecting victims so that he might swoop in and save the day by playing the quintessential ghostbuster. The perfect film to watch with a crowd!
