Dr. Zombie's Fearful Friday: The Giant Claw

Dr. Zombie (the most terrifying horror host on 3rd Ave.) will be hosting a creature screening of "The Giant Claw". He's going to bring his friend Dain "The Ghoul" GORE with him to do puppet presentations with the good doctor. When the movie rolls, they will be on hand to point out the scary parts of the film. Audience members will also be encouraged to share the scary parts they find in the film as well. You never know what the mad doctor will say, so this is an 18+ event. Education, live performance art, and independent cinema, these are the things that truly horrify you. We dare you to come and face the terror.

Reserve here.

Tickets are $15. We highly recommend making reservations. Dr. Zombie shows are for adults 18 and over only.
