Cryptids
Sunday October 22nd 1pm at The Screening Room 127 E. Congress
Major Harlan Dean (Joe Bob Briggs – ‘Shudder’s The Last Drive-In’ and ‘TNT’s MonsterVision’) is the host of the widely popular radio show “The Truth Serum”, a platform which he discusses all things weird, unknown, and sometimes scary. On tonight’s broadcast, Harlan tackles the topic of Cryptozoology to coincide with the annual Mothman Festival in Point Pleasant, West Virginia. However, with each caller, something more sinister appears to be waiting in the shadows and this could end up being Harlan’s very last broadcast.
A horror anthology jammed packed with practical creature feature effects with stories that are reminiscent of 90s’ TV shows ‘Monsters’, ‘Tales from the Crypt’, and ‘Tales from the Darkside’. Featuring segments written and directed by the people who brought you Force to Fear (Zane Hershberger and Robert Kuhn), The Dooms Chapel Horror (John William Holt), BoneJangles (Brett DeJager), The Circus of the Dead (Billy Pon), and The Barn Part 1 & II (Justin M. Seaman).
