Details

It's nearly 4/20, man, so, like, let's watch some drugged out horror movies, yeah?

These drug-fueled horror films collectively explore altered states of consciousness through wildly different lenses, yet converge in their depiction of reality unraveling into hallucinogenic hellscapes.

So, in other words, try to keep your feet on the ground, because things are about to get really really trippy. Remember, it's all in your head. Just sit back and enjoy the ride!

HOW HAPPY HORROR HOUR WORKS

Before the event …

  • Watch the movies from the Watch List at home on your own. We do not watch movies at the actual event. Think of it like a book club. It's not a requirement to watch all the movies on the Watch List to attend. However, watching at least a few is highly encouraged as you'll have a lot more fun during the discussion.
  • If you have content sensitivities, you can look up movies on doesthedogdie.com and/or unconsentingmedia.org to review warnings.
  • Keep your RSVP up-to-date. If you can't make it out, update your RSVP at least 24 hours beforehand. If there is a waitlist, attendance will be taken and "no shows" will be marked.

At the event …

  • We’re a friendly welcoming bunch and we love new folks! 😍
  • Please purchase something (even if just a soda) while you’re at the restaurant. They’re running a business but being super awesome by giving us a space to meet for free. Also, please tip our servers. We’re a big bunch to wrangle.
