"The House of the Devil" (2009) Film Screening

Ti West’s THE HOUSE OF THE DEVIL very well may be the greatest horror film of its decade.

The film is a slow-burning occult shocker, plotted with an emphasis on suspense and shot to recreate the glory days of ‘80s horror. Where some throwback films feel plastic and phony (and, at their worst, self-parodying), THE HOUSE OF THE DEVIL hits the nail firmly on the head – it works. West’s script and direction operate together to bring the characters to a boil, resulting in a third act that will paralyze you.

Starring Jocelin Donahue (INSIDIOUS: CHAPTER TWO), Tom Noonan (THE MONSTER SQUAD), Mary Woronov (ROCK 'N' ROLL HIGH SCHOOL), AJ Bowen (YOU'RE NEXT), and a beautiful Greta Gerwig, just before she started to make it in Hollywood (in hip huggers!).

Admission: $14.50
Location: Alamo Drafthouse, Seaport District, Boston.
