We’re once again heading outside this summer for a FREE film screening in the Senate Coney Lot!

Just like last year concessions and bathrooms inside the theater are open, and you’ll have to be sure to bring your own chair. 

And, for the third year running we’re going to play the mother of all zombie flicks, Night of the Living Dead. It's a movie—much like an ambling, undead monster out for brains — that will never get old, thanks to a tense script and iconic, boundary smashing imagery.   

Most horror flicks have tended to lose their terrifying luster as the genre pushes ever onward into the realm of guts and gore, but Night of the Living Dead remains a frightening experience that will make you wonder if they really are, “coming to get you” whether your name is Barbara or not.
