Friday Night Frights

Friday Night Frights brings you chills and thrills, ghosts and ghouls, and that creeping sensation that you're being watched by someone…or something! Every Friday in October, we bring you the best in classic, new, and underscreened horror films. Steeped in the wide variety of global horror filmmaking, Friday Night Frights has something for everyone.

This spooky season, we've got a killer collection of one of the creepiest films of the last 20 years; a body-horror classic from Cronenberg (the master himself); the fan-favorite award winner from the only all-horror film fest in the country; wild rage zombies; our friends from Weird Studies are back for another live podcast taping alongside a brain-twisting banger; and a Found Footage Freakout Double Feature. Long live Friday Night Frights!

Screenings include:

9.27, 10pm: The Others | Supernatural shivers and twisty turns abound in Alejandro Amenábar's stylish and atmospheric Gothic horror.

10.4. 10pm: The Brood | A singular, nightmarish vision of fractured family relationships that could only come from the mind of master filmmaker (and patron saint of Friday Night Frights!) David Cronenberg. 45th anniversary screening.

10.9, 7pm: In the Mouth of Madness | The Weird Studies podcast is back with horror godfather John Carpenter's wild and beloved cult classic of nightmarish (and bloody) literary inspiration. 30th anniversary screening.

10.18, 10pm: Oddity | A brutal murder, a nearby asylum, a wooden man, a vengeful medium, and an isolated Irish farmhouse combine in one of the most unexpected—and scariest—horror films of 2024.

10.25, 10pm: Train to Busan/Busanhaeng | It's a non-stop, high-octane fight for survival for the passengers on a train from Seoul to Busan once a zombie outbreak takes over South Korea.

10.30, 7pm: Candyman | An incisive, visually thrilling approach to the horrors of gentrification and the deep scars of the past combined with the chills that come from the minds of director Nia DaCosta and producer Jordan Peele. Q&A to follow.

10.31, 7pm: Found Footage Freakout Double Feature featuring Late Night With the Devil and The Blair Witch Project | It's a Found Footage Freakout Double Feature with one of this year's best new horror films and a classic that helped start it all.
