LATE NITE GRINDHOUSE Presents NIGHTMARE – 30th Anniversary Screening

Destroy The Brain Presents a 30th Anniversary screening of Romano Scavolini’s Nightmare.  We will be showing a rare 35mm Print of this lost film of the 80’s slasher films.  Nightmare is a unique film which pulls no punches and includes one of the best decapitation scenes of 80’s horror cinema.

We are so pumped to show this film that we even created an exclusive web poster for it!

Synopsis:

Escaped mental patient George (Baird Stafford) repeatedly suffers a graphic nightmare that depicts the axe murders of a couple making love. In Florida, a prowler stalks a babysitter – when she is attacked the youngest child she is looking after just sits and laughs… George begins a journey of brutal murder, death and destruction until the final moment of truth when his nightmares come to frightening life! aka Nightmare in a Damaged Brain and Blood Splash.

Trailer:

This is a very rare print that we are showing and I am proud to be showing it as part of the 30th Anniversary of Scavolini’s celluoid trip into madness.

Arrive early for Our signature Psychotronic Pre-Show, which includes video oddities and vintage trailers, as it starts at 11:30pm followed by a special presentation containing some of the history of Nightmare and the controversy between the film and Tom Savini.  The film starts around Midnight.
