Voted on Rue Morgue’s list of Top 100 Alternative Horror Films, LET’S SCARE JESSICA TO DEATH is a surreal ‘70s gem loosely based on Sheridan Le Fanu’s classic vampire yarn Carmilla. Recently released from a mental institution, beautiful but fragile Jessica moves to a New England farmhouse with her husband and a friend. They discover a strange woman squatting there who has seductive and sinister plans. Is she a vampire? The ghost of a former resident? Or a figment of Jessica’s imagination? Director John D. Hancock joins us for a screening of his atmospheric classic presented on film and followed by a Q&A. Featuring ghastly prizes and classic movie trailers! Thursday, November 19th at the Bloor Cinema (506 Bloor St. West, Toronto, doors: 9:30). One night only!
