Four tales of mayhem and monsters, hosted by two film critics with a taste for the bizarre.
FRIGHT SHOW
Two obscure film critics host four SF/Horror films: The Thing in the Basement, Illegal Alien, Nightfright, and Dr. Dobermind.
A horror club screening gone rogue—bring your own popcorn and skepticism.
Fright Show is less a single fright fest and more a patchwork quilt of weirdness, with two offbeat film critics guiding you through a grab bag of horror and sci-fi oddities. Where else can you catch a taxidermist, a killer alien, and a giant nose in under an hour? Anthology fans, this is your short, sharp fix.
