Program highlights include the earliest surviving Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, a silent film from 1912; 95th anniversary celebrations of the 1931classics Dracula and Frankenstein; and a “Horror Scope” remembrance of the tragic actor/horror cult icon, Rondo Hatton. Don’t miss some thrillingly scary celluloid!
