13th Annual Halloween Horror Movie Marathon

The Coolidge Corner Theatre's Annual Halloween Horror Movie Marathon enters its 13th year beginning with a double feature of infamous fright films, both based on real-life ghoul Ed Gein: Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho and Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chain Saw Massacre.

Born of the same source material but created 15 years apart, these tales of terror spawned two of the silver screen’s most legendary killers: Norman Bates and Leatherface. Both feature iconic houses of horror, taxidermy, corpses in rocking chairs, dysfunctional families, and some of the most recognized camera shots in all of the genre. Join us for a night to dismember by spending the witching hour with these masterpieces of the macabre.

If you survive those two, stick around for another 5 jolting tales of terror guaranteed to make your hair stand on end, your knuckles go white, and your eyeballs ache! We're keeping the rest of the line-up secret but don't worry, there will be plenty of ghosts, vampires, undead, nightmares, and brain damage to keep you up all night.
