LA Readers!! See ‘Halloween 2’ On 35mm This Saturday Night!!

Published

You know you love Halloween 2. Even if you haven’t seen it, if you’re here you love it. Which is why, if you live in Los Angeles, you should head over to the New Beverly Cinema (7165 Beverly Blvd, Los Angeles CA 90036) to see the continuing adventures of Laurie Strode! While it’s not quite as good as the original Halloween it has the benefit of picking up exactly where that film left off, which means no bullsh*tting around. It also has more gore courtesy of new director Rick Rosenthal and it was even written by John Carpenter and Debra Hill (even though he states he needed a 6-pack a night to make it through the process).

Bloody-Disgusting alum Brian Collins will be presenting the film as part of his Horror-Movie-A-Day screening series at the New Beverly Cinema. Tickets (which you can buy here) are only $8 – so this is a win-win scenario for you. It all goes down this Saturday, October 27th at 11:59PM. The print will be 35MM.

Head inside for a trailer and the event poster!
