Halloween 2022

Haxan: Witchcraft Through the Ages *FREE Fright Night!*
Thursday, October 27th at 8pm, FREE admission!
Naro Video and Old Dominion University invite you to experience the “unadulterated horror” and “satanic, perverted cruelty” of HÄXAN: WITCHCRAFT THROUGH THE AGES, presented with a new score performed live by Norfolk noise witch Karacell with an introduction from Naro Video Coven member Erik Swallow. Admission is free!
For 100 years, this silent Swedish shocker has terrorized audiences world-wide with its anticlerical images of satanic depravity. “Unfit for public exhibition,” was the word in Variety. Some people just don’t know how to have a good time.
*Programming Note: This will be film’s 1968 stoner cut, a shortened U.S. release for the midnight movie circuit.

The Craft *Fright Night*
Friday, October 14th at 9:15 pm!
After transferring to a new high school, Sarah (Robin Tunney) finds that her telekinetic gift appeals to a group of three wannabe witches, who happen to be seeking a fourth member for their rituals. Bonnie (Neve Campbell), Rochelle (Rachel True) and Nancy (Fairuza Balk), like Sarah herself, all have troubled backgrounds, which combined with their nascent powers lead to dangerous consequences. When a minor spell causes a fellow student to lose her hair, the girls grow drunk with power. They watch their spells get out of control, and the new coven soon realizes that with magic, “whatever you give comes back three-fold.” (1996, R, 105 m)
