“Hey Mutanville fans … tomorrow night (March 1st, 2012) at 7:30 PM BAFS brings you a good old fashioned ghost story! Ti West’s The Innkeepers. 1 screening only and in 35mm. Hope to see you there!”
After over one hundred years of service, The Yankee Pedlar Inn is shutting its doors for good. The last remaining employees -Claire (Sara Paxton) and Luke (Pat Healy) – are determined to uncover proof of what many believe to be one of New England’s most haunted hotels. As the Inn’s final days draw near, odd guests check in as the pair of minimum wage “ghost hunters” begin to experience strange and alarming events that may ultimately cause them to be mere footnotes in the hotel’s long unexplained history.

You are in luck, Brad Dourif will be at the Mad Monster Party in Charlotte, NC this March. If that doesn’t make you happy then you may not be familiar with Brad Dourif. Stay tuned for the next few minutes and you will be more familiar. I’m going to dive in and out of horror since Mr. Dourif does all types of films. So lets jump in the way back machine and go back to 1975. There was a movie that most of us have either seen or heard about called One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. I wasn’t able to see this in the theater because it would have been over my head at one year old. Brad Dourif played Billy Bibbit along side some incredible actors including Jack Nicholson, Christopher Lloyd, Danny DeVito, Michael Berryman (also appearing at The Mad Monster Party) and Vincent Schiavelli. For his role, Mr. Dourif earned the Golden Globe for Best Actor Debut and a British Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. He was also nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. One interesting fact is that it was not his debut. He was in a low budget film called “Split” (which wasn’t released) and in W.W. and the Dixie Dancekings. His part was cut out of the film though.
This week at the Trailer Park – we are featuring the brand new international trailer for the upcoming horror/comedy/vampire movie Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. With a title like that what more do you need to know? Abraham Lincoln plus vampires = the chocolate and peanut butter of horror. Check it out after the leap!
Clive Barker’s Nightbreed, one of the most fan adored monster movies of all time is available for the first time in a never before seen 3 hour long director’s cut at the Mad Monster Party on Saturday March 24th, 2012. In addition to this special rare event Nightbreed stars Craig Sheffer and Anne Bobby (marking their very first convention appearance) will be in attendance for a Q&A
session following the screening and will be signing autographs in the dealer room throughout the weekend.
Mark Miller, Hellraiser comic writer, and Nightbreed expert will also be on hand to introduce the film on behalf of Clive Barker and share some insights into Barker’s vision for the future of Nightbreed.
Join Mad Monster Party to champion the cause and be a part of the growing movement to give the Director’s cut of this beloved film its much deserved special edition DVD/Blu-Ray release. We’re doing our part by sharing this cut and conducting panels which will explain the great opportunities fans will have to offer their support. Many thanks to Nightbreed distributor and owner Morgan Creek for giving us their blessing to show the film. They will be watching, with interest, for audience and fan reaction so let’s show them how much we want this to happen.
Once again, THIS VERSION HAS NEVER BEEN SEEN BEFORE. Pulling from three separate cuts of the film, and working closely with Nightbreed’s original director of photography Robin Vidgeon, Clive Barker’s team at Seraphim Films has assembled a composite that will be the most complete version of the film that has ever been shown.
Come show your support. As a work in progress, it is possible that you may never again get to see this version of Clive Barker’s masterpiece Nightbreed, as it was always meant to be seen.
