Cult Classic Movie Night: Blood Diner

Cult Classic Movie Night: Blood Diner

Friday, January 20

8:00 pm - 9:30 pm

Join us for a screening of the cult classic Blood Diner (1987/90 min/NR/Comedy, Horror)!

Ingredients: 1 cup self-awareness, 2 cups punk rock attitude, a heaping handful of talented crew, 1 can (10 ounces) of splatter and gore, 1 large block of machismo, diced, 1/2 tbs. 80’s culture satire, 1 (female) risk-taking director with vision, 2 servings of quality time management, a pinch of budget

Mix ingredients with an intentionally absurd script and let simmer for 36 years.  This recipe, when properly planned and executed can result in a five star, top-notch horror comedy sure to please your horror family and friends. If you require visual proof of what this recipe can yield, one needs to look no further than the 1987 cult classic, Blood Diner. – Nightmare on Film Street

Stay after the movie for our always lively Film Discussion where we will discuss trivia and have fun prizes!
