Los Angeles: See Carpenter’s ‘Madness’ On The Big Screen!

Published

on

Back in 2009, the New Beverly in Los Angeles hosted a great double feature of John Carpenter’s The Thing and Prince Of Darkness, which make up 2/3s of Carpenter’s unofficial “Apocalypse Trilogy”. And now, our own BC will host a screening of the “final chapter”, as he presents In The Mouth Of Madness, this Saturday (April 16th) at 11:59 PM.

And since he’s a stickler for tradition, he will be bringing back producer Sandy King (who offered a terrific Q&A for Thing/Prince) for a chat before the film – and if you were there, you know she makes for a hilarious (read: candid!) guest. BC will also have some DVDs to give away and show some fun trailers. All this for a mere 7 bucks, cash at the door or online at Brown Paper Tickets. The New Bev is located at 7165 Beverly Blvd in Los Angeles, CA, 90036, 1.5 blocks west of La Brea, and street parking is widely available (Formosa Ave is your best bet). See you there!

With the disappearance of hack horror writer Sutter Cane, all Hell is breaking loose…literally! Author Cane, it seems, has a knack for description that really brings his evil creepy-crawlies to life. Insurance investigator John Trent is sent to investigate Cane’s mysterious vanishing act and ends up in the sleepy little East Coast town of Hobb’s End. The fact that this town exists as a figment of Cane’s twisted imagination is only the beginning of Trent’s problems….
