I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT...

... SO HERE'S A ZOMBIE WITH A PANCAKE ON IT'S HEAD.

Killing Spree - HALLOWEEK EDITION (PART II)

I could lie and say that I had some very important business to get to this weekend and that's why I was unable to continue this post yesterday. But really, I did the Run For Your Lives 5K in Brooklyn on Saturday (I didn't survive... but I did freeze my butt off in a giant pool of blood-colored KoolAid and had the best time doing it!!!), ate frozen yogurt, dressed up like a harlequin, slept late, and ate more frozen yogurt. Also, The Walking Dead was on last night, so really what better things did anybody have to do?

At any rate... let's get down to business.
Here is MY HALLOWEEK EDITION - THE REVENGE (aka part 2)!!!!

- TONIGHT -

- OCTOBER 28, 2013 -

ASK ME ANOTHER: HALLOWEEN SPECTACULAR!

Guest: R. L. Stine

Join NPR and WNYC for a live taping of Ask Me Another at The Bell House in Brooklyn, New York. 

R.L. Stine will do a book giveaway and signing after the show. Plus: Costume party! Come dressed as your favorite character. 
**Please note that this event will be mixed seating/standing. Please arrive early for the best seat selection.

Puzzlemaster Will Shortz and Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! host Peter Sagal walk into a bar... No, it's not the start of a joke. It's the essence of Ask Me Another, a rambunctious hour that blends brainteasers and local pub trivia night with comedy and music. Host Ophira Eisenberginvites in-studio guests and listeners alike to stretch their noggins, tickle their funny bones, and enjoy witty banter and guitar riffs from house musician Jonathan Coulton.

For an hour, listeners can play along as Eisenberg puts questions to a rotating band of puzzle gurus, audience members and special mystery guests, who then takes a turn in the contestant's chair facing trivia games written especially for him or her. What you'll hear resembles the casual intimacy of game night at a friend's house: one where scores are forgotten in favor of hilarious gaffes.

Puppet Parlor: Halloween Edition

One of few programs in the country to grow and commission contemporary, adult puppet works, Dream Music provides performance opportunities to puppet artists, and encourages multidisciplinary collaboration to develop new puppetry techniques. This program was inaugurated with the premiere of Basil Twist’s OBIE-award winning Symphonie Fantastique in 1998. Under the artistic direction of Twist, and produced by HERE co-founder Barbara Busackino, the Dream Music aesthetic is geared toward puppet works that feature live music as a collaborative element.

Our Special Halloween edition of the parlor will feature a Japanese monster tale from Yumiko Tanaka, plus Basil Twist, Kate Brehm, Brandon Hardy, Jessica Scott and the haunted keys of Wayne Barker -our special musical host for the affair.

Creepshow at the Freakshow: Coney Island Criminals

Dick Zigun's 2013 Creepshow

It is the "true story" of teenage Al Capone getting his famous scars while working as Bartender/Bouncer at Coney Island's The Harvard Inn, a saloon owned by Brooklyn gangster, Frankie Yale. Not only was The Harvard Inn Capone's first job, it was also Jimmy Durante's first job playing piano and Clara Bow's first job waitressing. This Creepshow Play is interactive entertainment - the audience gets involved - the front seats are splattered with "blood", an audience member might get hit in the face with spaghetti, might get made into the mob, or might end up shot and killed. See it all in living Splash-A-Rama. Oct 11-13 say the phrase "Al Capone Sent Me" OR present a "card" from Eldorado Bumper Cars at the box office and save $3 per ticket.

NOSFERATU

Inspired by Bram Stoker’s Dracula

TR Warszawa and Teatr Narodowy
Written and directed by Grzegorz Jarzyna

Terrifying, yet seductive. Blood-thirsty harbingers of death who extend a twisted promise of immortality. The vampire figure has long been defined by Bram Stoker’s classic interpretation, Dracula. In Nosferatu, Poland’s TR Warszawa and Teatr Narodowy dig beneath that veneer to deliver a deeply hypnotic, visually sumptuous new take on the vampire legend. Set to an unnerving score by downtown fixture John Zorn, director Grzegorz Jarzyna’s production suspends us in a liquid-green world of shadowy set pieces, brimming with eroticism, while returning to the legend’s deep reflections on fear and the human need for transgression.

- HALLOWEEN!!! -

- If you need to know the date, then we don't know each other. -

Then She Fell 

is a fully immersive, multi-sensory experience in which only 15 audience members per performance explore a dreamscape where every alcove, corner, and corridor has been transformed into lushly designed world. Inspired by the life and writings of Lewis Carroll, it offers an Alice-like experience for audience members as they explore the rooms, often by themselves, in order to discover hidden scenes; encounter performers one-on-one; unearth clues that illuminate a shrouded history; use skeleton keys to gain access to guarded secrets; and imbibe elixirs custom designed by one of NYC’s foremost mixologists.

Morricone Youth: Alfred Hitchcock’s The Lodger

Directed by Alfred Hitchcock | 1926

With Ivor Novello, Malcolm Keen, Miss June, Arthur Chesney, Marie Ault

Dedicated to performing old film and television soundtracks, septet Morricone Youth provides spooky musical accompaniment to this special Halloween screening of what the Master of Suspense himself dubbed "the first true Hitchcock movie." A postmodern homage to great movie composer Bernard Herrmann, Morricone Youth's original score draws on a wide range of influences, including waltzes, Eastern European folk, rock, and go-go music.

Back by popular demand after a sold-out screening in June's The Hitchcock 9, The Lodger—lovingly restored by the British Film Institute—stars matinee idol Ivor Novello cast against type as a marvelously creepy Jack the Ripper-type serial killer who stalks the fog-shrouded London alleyways for his (yup, you guessed it) blonde victims. Filmed with an appropriately expressionist eye, The Lodger boasts a particularly inventive scene that has Hitch shooting the killer’s nervously paced footsteps through a plate-glass floor.
This screening features musical accompaniment by New York City septet Morricone Youth.

This year’s edition of Scary Movies features more brand-new offerings and guest appearances than ever before, including nine U.S. or NY premieres: All Cheerleaders Die(high-school horror resurrected!), Eli Roth’s Cannibal Holocaust homage, The Green Inferno (with Roth in person!), Across the River (minimalist approach = maximum fear), creepy psycho-thriller Proxy, and creepy psycho-comedy Cheap Thrills, Patrick (proof that remakes can be frightfully good!), European vacation from hellAfflicted (with writer-director-stars Clif Prowse & Derek Lee in person!), and mind-warped puzzler Open Grave.

Plus, a handful of gems from the 1970s and 80s that demonstrate there’s nothing scarier than being stuck in the boonies: the action of Curtains, Death Weekend, Let’s Scare Jessica to Death, Rituals, and Twins of Evil unfolds in countryside locations where no one can hear you scream—except for the assorted menaces who lurk there.

Finally, we are thrilled to be presenting the New York premiere of the Cabal Cut of Clive Barker’s fantasticNightbreed, the Italian zombie classic Cemetery Man, and the bizarro French gorefest Baby Blood—three unsung masterpieces from the 1990s, the first in the form the director originally intended.

Finally, we are thrilled to be presenting the New York premiere of the Cabal Cut of Clive Barker’s fantasticNightbreed, the Italian zombie classic Cemetery Man, and the bizarro French gorefest Baby Blood—three unsung masterpieces from the 1990s, the first in the form the director originally intended. Series programmed by Laura Kern and Gavin Smith.

Seriousy though, I'm probably going to find some more activities to post here soon, so keep an eye out.
No, baby. Not literally. Put your eye back in your face.
