FILM CLUB

Hey everybody! October is just about here so I figured I'd put up the Film Club information for the month. As you may know we have the HORRORFEST running for the month of October and any and all are welcome to attend, but for those of you who might not want to be part of that I will still have the regularly scheduled Film Club on the third Thursday, which would be the 20th. We will be watching:



Nosferatu

Directed by F.W. Murnau


Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens (translated as Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror; also known as Nosferatu: A Symphony of Terror or simply Nosferatu) is a classic 1922 German Expressionist horror film, directed by F. W. Murnau, starring Max Schreck as the vampire Count Orlok. The film, shot in 1921 and released in 1922, was an unauthorized adaptation of Bram Stoker's Dracula, with names and other details changed because the studio could not obtain the rights to the novel (for instance, "vampire" became "Nosferatu" and "Count Dracula" became "Count Orlok"). (From Wikipedia)


Come on out for a scary good time!

HORRORFEST


It's coming...

Join us at the Crete Public Library this October for HORRORFEST. Four Fridays, four of cinema's greatest horror films. SEE: George A. Romero's masterpiece of zombie horror Night of the Living Dead, John Carpenter's classic slasher Halloween, Tomas Alfredson's chilling tale of vampire terror Let the Right One In, and Stanley Kubrick's modern masterpiece of psychological horror The Shining. ENJOY: refreshments, trivia, obscure facts and discussions of each film. Every Friday in October, when the Library closes, the horror begins. (Library hours for Friday are 9:30-5:00, HORRFEST will begin once the library closes)

Here are the trailers:
