What we’re about
Do you always have to catch the latest scare flick alone because your friends think you are insane to watch this stuff?
Do you get strange looks when you start to rave about '2001' or 'House of 1000 corpses'?
This is your group :) (... and if your friends don't think you're insane please bring them along ... )
We are a bunch of friendly people with an offbeat taste in films, with emphasis on Horror, SciFi and Fantasy.
I hope to see you at our next event!

Nosferatu
Quite possibly the most terrifying film ever made, F.W. Murnau’s Nosferatu remains a haunting masterpiece that continues to influence filmmakers even a century later.Released in 1922 and loosely adapted from Bram Stoker’s Dracula (with character names altered to avoid copyright infringement), the film is set in the surreal, shadowy world of German Expressionism. Themes of death, madness, and the interplay of shadow and light permeate this chilling tale. Max Schreck’s Count Orlac, with his bald head, rat-like features, and long, bony fingers, is a ghastly, parasitic monster sustained by the blood of the living. His hunched, creeping form terrifies even in silhouette, presenting a stark contrast to the romanticized vampires of later portrayals. While Orlac still desires the blood of a virtuous young woman, he is no suave, alluring undead, but a horrifying creature embodying pure nightmare fuel.
Although the image of the vampire has evolved over the past century, Nosferatu remains a benchmark of horror cinema, a film whose disturbing visuals and haunting atmosphere continue to define the genre.
Special Accompaniment:
Musical accompaniment by Dennis James on the California Theatre's mighty Wurlitzer organ.
