Movie Meetup — Hokum — Meet from 7:15 pm, film at 9:00

We're going to see Damian Mc Carthy's new, old-school horror, Hokum.

We'll meet in the Watershed cafe/bar from 7:15 pm, to say hello and chat. Afterwards, we will stop for a few minutes to talk about the film.

Buy your own ticket from the box office or online.

(If horror isn't your thing, the The Drama and Rose of Nevada are still showing.)

ABOUT THE FILM

"When reclusive novelist Ohm Bauman retreats to a remote Irish inn to scatter his parents’ ashes, the staff’s tales of an ancient witch haunting the honeymoon suite take hold of his mind.
Soon, disturbing visions and a shocking disappearance draw him into a nightmarish confrontation with the darkest corners of his past..."
— Watershed summary

"What could have easily been an overstuffed confluence of ideas – a haunted house, a ghost, a witch, a murder, oh my! – comes together so effectively because of McCarthy’s masterful command of what scares audiences."
★★★★★ Monica Castillo, The Playlist

"The film’s simple premise is supported by smart plotting, nimble editing and evocative sound, and lands with frightening force. An engagingly frigid performance by Scott furthers the film’s keen ability to conjure overwhelming anxiety from its many punchy jump scares, combining to make Hokum an exceptionally chilling horror film."
★★★★ Robert Daniels, Screen Daily
