Join Sleepover Trading Co. and Hudson Valley Horror Fest for a screening of Joe Dante's "satirical contribution to the oft-maligned werewolf genre" - THE HOWLING! Dee Wallace (ET, Kujo) is a Los Angeles television reporter on the trail of a serial killer with a secret. Her investigation leads to an isolated resort full of weird characters that shouldn't be trusted around a full moon. Directed by Joe Dante (Gremlins, The Burbs) and featuring a script by Oscar nominee John Sayles and effects by Rob Bottin (The Thing), The Howling mixes horror, comedy and a frightening amount of nerdy horror movie easter eggs.
The screening will kick-off with an exclusive retro clipshow featuring classic commercials, weird trailers and 80s oddities. The pre-show begins at 7:30pm with the film at 8pm at the Avalon Lounge (29 Church Street, Catskill, NY). Your $5 tickets can be purchased at https://www.theavalonlounge.com/ or at the door and all of the proceeds will go to support The Avalon Lounge.
This screening is hosted in partnership with Hudson Valley Horror Fest (August 24-25 in Fishkill, NY) where you can meet The Howling actor James Murtaugh or catch a private screening of Fright Night with star William Ragsdale. Grab your tickets at https://hudsonvalleyhorror.com/
