The weather’s getting colder and the days are getting darker, which can only mean one thing: it’s time to get that hoodie out the back of your wardrobe… Oh yeah, and it’s officially spooky season. From terrifying new horrors and returning classics to frightening family favourites, here’s everything we’re showing at Vue for Halloween.
New Horrors
Salem's Lot | At Vue From 11 October - BOOK NOW
There’s only thing that sucks more than writer’s block, and that’s vampires. This revamp (no pun intended) of the Stephen King classic serves as a solid reminder of why homecomings are so terrifying – although you probably have less blood-hungry people in your town.
Terrifier 3 | At Vue From 11 October - BOOK NOW
Embracing the Christmas spirit can be a little bit tricky when that creepy clown from Halloween is still trying to murder you. Sienna and her brother may have survived Art’s last massacre, but now he’s now back to turn their festive cheer into a whole new nightmare.
Smile 2 | At Vue 18 October - BOOK NOW
Annnnd smiling is officially creepy again. This time it’s mega pop star Skye Riley (Naomi Scott) who’s being terrorised by the grinning demon. Just imagining a whole stadium of faces giving you that nightmarish leer…
The Front Room | At Vue From 25 October - BOOK NOW
There’s nothing more terrifying than an unwanted visit from your mother-in-law – especially when she’s as creepy as this one… and claims to be possessed by the Holy Spirit. Some things just aren’t worth the inheritance money.
Back on the Big Screen
Evil Dead II | At Vue From 11 October - BOOK NOW
Note to self: don’t take your partner to a cabin in the middle of nowhere and watch a video tape that can actually summon an evil spirit. Goes without saying really, doesn’t it? Ash is dealing with all types of reanimated hell in this follow-up to the cult classic comedy horror
Carrie | At Vue From 18 October - BOOK NOW
If you had telekinetic powers, you’d probably use them to terrorise your bullies, right? Well, you can hardly blame Carrie for doing it, then. Senior prom is going to be a living nightmare – not for her… This classic adaptation of Stephen King’s best-selling novel has been restored in eye-popping 4K.
A Nightmare on Elm Street | At Vue From 25 October - BOOK NOW
When it comes to Halloween, Freddy Krueger is truly the man of our dreams. That’s why we’re celebrating A Nightmare on Elm Street’s 40th anniversary by bringing it back to the big screen. Apologies if you lose any sleep over it.
Frightening Family Favourites
Hocus Pocus | At Vue From 7 October - BOOK NOW
Light a black candle and lock up your children (not literally), because the Sanderson sisters are ready to make their big return. Again.
The Nightmare Before Christmas | At Vue From 26 October - BOOK NOW
Is it a Halloween film or a Christmas film? We’ll let you decide that. Although we’d probably suggest that a skeleton abducting Santa Claus isn’t very Christmassy… Tim Burton’s stop-motion classic is simply a must-watch for spooky season.
Ghostbusters | At Vue 18-19 October - BOOK NOW
Nothing beats a bit of OG ghost busting on Halloween. Bill Murray, Dan Akroyd, Ernie Hudson and Harold Ramis are ready to transport us back to the 1980s for this ectoplasm-filled classic, and boy does it feel good.
Ghostbusters II | At Vue 18-19 October - BOOK NOW
Did we mention that bustin’ makes us feel good? So good, in fact, that we’re also bringing back the original crew’s second adventure. This time New York City is being overtaken by some pink ectoplasmic slime, and a creepy bloke in a painting wants to steal Sigourney Weaver’s baby. How rude.
