Scarecrowber: HauntedWeen
October 6 - 28, 2024
Don’t love Hauntedween for the title alone. Love it for the integrity. This film positions its most unattractive assets — the annoying people and the terrible comedy — at the forefront. It’s a bold move...No big deal. Once night falls, Hauntedween leans in with a third act of luscious Halloween trickery. You can smell the rubber masks and tubes of drug store blood. You can hear the Kentucky accents come alive again. You can feel the warmth of enthusiasm. Plus, an automobile really can blow up following a shotgun blast to the back bumper. You’ll see it happen! – Bleeding Skull! A 1980s Trash-Horror Odyssey.

One Halloween night, a little girl visiting the Burber family’s “House of Horrors” attraction is brutally hacked to pieces by their young son, Eddie. Having fled the scene, Eddie is taken away by his mother to live in solitude at a remote cabin. Twenty years later, Tophill State College’s Sigma Phi fraternity are desperately trying to raise some cash, so they decide to throw a raucous fundraiser party for their peers. In the midst of the festivities, a mysterious figure arrives at the door, offering them the key to the old abandoned Burber house and suggesting that they turn it into a haunted house. Seizing the opportunity, the youngsters quickly set about transforming the property into an elaborate — and potentially lucrative — Halloween attraction. Little do they realize that Eddie Burber has returned home and intends to have some All Hallow’s Eve fun of his own — setting up his own “Kill Room,” where the line between fantasy and reality quickly becomes blurred…
