Halloween at VIFF

Boo!

Halloween falls on a Saturday this year and VIFF is trying hard to compete with all of the other other fun events that will be going on in northern Vermont that night. You should seriously consider getting dressed up in costume and heading down to the Palace for your Halloween fun. Here’s why…

The House of the Devil will screen at 8:45PM.

From writer-director Ti West comes The House of the Devil, a satanic thriller set in the 1980s starring Jocelin Donahue (JT Petty’s forthcoming THE BURROWERS), indie ingénue Greta Gerwig (HANNAH TAKES THE STAIRS, BAGHEAD), Tom Noonan (SNOW ANGELS, MANHUNTER), Mary Woronov (EATING RAOUL, THE DEVIL’S REJECTS), AJ Bowen (THE SIGNAL) and Dee Wallace (E.T., Rob Zombie’s HALLOWEEN).

…and best of all, we’re having a Best Worst Movie/Troll 2 double feature with a costume contest. First prize in the contest will be a YEAR of free movies at the Palace for the winner and a friend. That by itself should be incentive enough, but seriously, check out the trailer for Best Worst Movie…

You need a flash player to see this movie.

Looks awesome, right? Best Worst Movie starts at 9:15PM and will be followed by Troll 2 with an intermission between films for awarding the prizes for best costumes. And best of all, you can stay up late for Troll 2 because we get an extra hour that night as daylight savings comes to an end!
