Be afraid. Be very afraid. HorrorBuzz is kicking off their Horror Movie Night series in 2026 with a special 40th anniversary screening of David Cronenberg’s notorious body horror classic The Fly!
When eccentric scientist Seth Brundle (Jeff Goldblum in a career-defining physical performance) cracks the secret of teleportation, he does what any self-respecting mad genius might: he tests it on himself. What he doesn’t know is that he wasn’t alone in the pod. A housefly slipped in at the final moment… and the machine fused man and insect into one evolving organism. As Brundle’s transformation accelerates from curiosity to nightmare, journalist Veronica Quaife (Geena Davis) becomes witness to both his brilliance and his unraveling.
Horror Movie Night takes filmgoing to another level with a full night of entertainment, including a themed HMN Video Pres-how, Trivia, Games, Prizes, and another outstanding horror short from HorrorBuzz’s The Screaming Room Film Festival at Midsummer Scream.
Doors open and video pre-show video begins promptly at 7:30 pm. Games, prizes, and short film begin at 8:00PM. Feature starts at 8:30PM.
