Skeleton Factory’s Horror & Cult Film Trivia Night
Why waste your time by doing crimes like getting sushi and not paying (cf. Repo Man, 1984) when you can have a lively and lore-loaded good time with Adam Hester of the Skeleton Factory podcast and his lineup of stump-your-electric-bacon deep dives into cinema’s more psychotronic waters? Answer: Don’t! Put down that nigiri, grab you a brew, and battle for prizes and braggin’ rights against your perhaps equally obsessed friends and neighbors. Hockey masks optional, and the calls are always coming from inside the house.– Wayne Alan BrennerTue., Jan. 30, 7pm
