"There are many people (mostly in the rest of the country) laboring under the assumption that San Francisco is permanently awash with freaks and creeps. This month, movie theaters across the city are out to prove those critics absolutely correct with a plethora of Halloween horror offerings that'll make the blood of regular ol' folks run cold. Here's what's on and where to find it."
"Saturday the 18th is awash with classics of yore, including The House on Haunted Hill (1959) and (1960). There's even a 15-minute film of a paranormal investigation that took place at the Balboa back in 2016. For those brave enough to stick around after that, the evening closes with the 1977 Japanese flick ( Hausu). If you're not worn out yet, you can catch The Changeling (1980) at noon on Sunday. Want to finish that day with The Amityville Horror (1979)? Knock yourself out."
Multiple San Francisco theaters are presenting a broad lineup of Halloween horror screenings throughout October, including classic, cult, and contemporary horror films. The Balboa Theatre and Alamo locations in Santa Clara and Mountain View are participating in overlapping programming and special events. Scheduled highlights include classic titles such as The House on Haunted Hill, The Changeling, The Amityville Horror, and a 1977 Japanese film (Hausu), plus seasonal staples like The Exorcist on 35mm and The Rocky Horror Picture Show on Halloween. Additional events include the Fleischer Halloween Party celebrating classic ghoulish cartoons and a surprise-filled Dismember the Alamo horror marathon.
