They’re cruel, they’re devious and on September 26 & 27, all Hell’s going to break loose!
Exhumed Films and the Mahoning Drive-In present WEEKEND OF TERROR X – 80s MONSTER MADNESS, a two-night bash of some of the gnarliest, gooey monster movies of the decade that perfected practical effects nightmare magic!
Join us for six slabs of savage '80s horror, all screened from glorious 35mm prints! From Cenobite sadism and demonic vengeance to insectoid terror and heavy metal werewolves, we've unearthed a lineup of deep cuts and cult classics that are guaranteed to claw their way into your skull and feast on your brains!
9/26 – NIGHT ONE:
HELLRAISER (1987) – Clive Barker's legendary debut unleashes Pinhead and the Cenobites and all the hellish horrors from beyond!
BLUE MONKEY (1987) – A forgotten VHS-era Canadian gem starring Steve (LIFEFORCE) Railsback, where a giant mutant insect spreads infection and terror inside a quarantined hospital.
INCUBUS (1982) – A shadowy force stalks a small town, delivering nightmarish death in this eerie and rarely-screened Canadian shocker starring John Cassavetes and directed by John (LEGEND OF HELL HOUSE, TWINS OF EVIL) Hough.
9/27 — NIGHT TWO:
PUMPKINHEAD (1988) – Lance Henriksen is a grieving father who summons a vengeful demon to punish the teens responsible for his son's death in the directorial debut of special effects wizard Stan (ALIENS, PREDATOR) Winston!
THE BOOGENS (1981) – Buried deep in an abandoned mine, ancient creatures awaken to claim fresh victims in this often overlooked throwback creature feature gem from the creators of SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT!
MONSTER DOG (1986) – Alice Cooper battles his own inner beast in this bizarre, blood-soaked Italian heavy metal horror oddity written and directed by Claudio (TROLL 2) Fragasso!
All movies will be preceded by a collection of 80s monster trailers from the Exhumed Films archives!
