October Fright Nights at The Naro

Thursday, October 2nd through Saturday, October 31st!

Let us help you be very afraid in the lead-up to Halloween this year with a choice selection of terror-filled iconic classics and popular popcorn thrillers in all their gory glory on the big screen with panic-inducing surround-sound. 


Faust with Live On-Stage Musical Score

Friday, October 2nd at 9:00pm
Silent Horror Classic with Live Music!

In 2026, The Invincible Czars celebrate 100 years of the silent masterpiece Faust (1926, FW Murnau) by performing their tastefully modern soundtrack live with the movie at theatres in the US and Canada.  Their brand new electrifying score marries new and old elements of classical music, bossa nova and even a touch of heavy metal to bring the movie to life for contemporary audiences and incorporates a mix of instruments like flute, violin and electric guitar.  (1926, Unrated, 107m)  All tickets $22, Naro ticket books are not valid for this event. 

For modern audiences, it’s the cast that really makes the movie entertaining.  The virtually-unknown Camilla Horn is hard not to love in the role of Gretchen.  (Horn had replaced the legendary Lillian Gish in the role when Gish ultimately turned it down due to the subject matter in the film.)  The charismatic (if complicated) Emil Jannings was like the Jim Carrey of his day bringing all emotions with equal gusto and power. He is hilarious, hateable, terrifying and unforgettable especially when paired with  Yvette Guilbert as Aunt Marthe. For additional background of film, see official event website.
