Happy Horror Hour - International Deep Cuts 👁️🕯️📼🌑

Four films. Four countries. One very unsettling world tour.

Join us for International Deep Cuts, a horror lineup devoted to atmospheric films from around the globe that many fans haven’t discovered yet. These aren’t the usual international hits everyone talks about. These are the movies hiding just beneath the surface—the kind that creep up slowly, explore unsettling ideas, and linger in your mind long after the credits roll.

From rigid religious despair and dangerous ritual magic to occult conspiracies and philosophical nightmares about fate itself, each film reveals a different kind of unseen force quietly shaping human lives.

Up for Discussion

• Why international horror often feels stranger and more unpredictable than Hollywood horror
• Rituals, belief, and the terrifying power of faith
• Fate vs. free will when the universe might already know the outcome

Come for the hidden horrors. Stay for the discussion… and maybe a few new nightmares from places you didn’t expect.

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. Attendance will be taken and "no shows" will be marked.

At the event …

• We’re a friendly welcoming bunch and we love new folks! 😍
• You are expected to purchase something at the restaurant. Pour House is a longtime home for this movie club. We get to use the back room for free with the expectation that we are bringing in paying customers. Also, please tip our servers. We’re a big bunch to wrangle. Thanks!
