Enter, if you dare, the old dark house that is Paradise Theatre AFTER DARK! That’s right, Sleaze Factory has partnered with Letterboxd and Freddie to bring you -the- only Halloween party worth attending this season. Join us for the movie, and stay for all the horny haunted goodness before and after the show. And don’t you dare think of coming without your best costume, as we’ll be showering our best and least dressed with prizes from Letterboxd, Freddie, Good For Her, Gigi’s House of Frills, New Moon Technocraft, Chez Moi Books, The Candy Bar Toronto, Eyesore Cinema, and more!
Our very own cinematic smut peddler, Weird Alice, will guide you through this haunted affair with a screening of THUNDERCRACK! A hardcore (xxx-rated) horror cult gem where an assorted group of strangers (four men, three women, and a gorilla) are stranded in a remote Victorian mansion. Lauded as ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW meets DEEP THROAT, this screamingly funny and shockingly erotic feature has been lovingly restored by AGFA and is sure to have you questioning everything you thought you knew about your sexuality and storm-preparedness.
But that’s not all, we’re keeping your spooky needs satisfied with pre-show, intermission, and post-show entertainment. Be frightened and aroused by Nookie Galore, Bunny Mulan, + Kahjay. And shake your everything on our dance floor (yes, we have one, it’s just hidden!) with hot beats from DJs Bliptor & The FranDiscos.
In the beginning, cinema was without form…and then came the dazzling madness of THUNDERCRACK! The home of an alcoholic widow becomes a sanctuary for multiple strange travelers during a terrible storm, but the darkness of the night transforms it into so much more: a waypoint for wayward souls and lost ghosts; a hotbed of repressed perversions and indulged fetishes; a place where sex and violence meet in an orgy of jaw-dropping proportions! An unstoppable vision of exploitation excellence from underground cinema legends Curt McDowell and George Kuchar, THUNDERCRACK! will shatter every fiber of your being and leave you breathless for more. -AGFA
