Initially, Barb eggs the caller on, but stops when he responds threateningly. Soon, Barb's friend Clare (Lynne Griffin) goes missing from the sorority house, and a local adolescent girl is murdered, leading the girls to suspect a serial killer is on the loose. But no one realizes just how near the culprit is.

A gadget salesman is looking for a special gift for his son and finds one at a store in Chinatown. The shopkeeper is reluctant to sell him the `mogwai' but sells it to him with the warning to never expose him to bright light, water, or to feed him after midnight. All of this happens and the result is a gang of gremlins that decide to tear up the town on Christmas Eve.
- Silent Night, Deadly Night - 40th Anniversary & Zoom Q&A w/Linnea QuigleyThe Broad Theater, New Orleans, LA
Monday, December 16th Screamfest NOLA and Timecode bring you the 40th anniversary screening of Silent Night, Deadly Night, the controversial Christmas horror film that sparked an outrage! Zoom Q&A with Linnea Quigley follows the screening.
When the film was released in 1984, people were so outraged that it depicted Santa as a spree killer in the advertisements and terrified children of Santa that people showed up to theaters picketing the film, leading to the distributor pulling it from theaters after only a week. Luckily, sanity prevailed, and this horror cult classic is readily available to watch and enjoy, including with us!
Come out and enjoy the Christmas build up as we give away prizes and test your horror IQ, but don’t be a Grinch and get your tickets early since space is limited and will likely sell out! Tickets
Trivia! Prizes! Holiday scares!
