We have partnered with our friends at The Doylestown Bookshop to welcome Rondo-nominated author Lowell Greenblatt who will be in conversation with co-director of programming and fellow Fredhead, Brendan Joyce. The pair will discuss Greenblatt’s latest work—Nightmare Autopsis: A Return to Elm Street—along with Freddy's indelible legacy as a horror icon.
Freddy’s back in one of the best horror sequels of all time! Featuring inventive set pieces, imaginative special effects, and a killer theme song courtesy of Dokken, DREAM WARRIORS brings Robert Englund back as the demonic dream-stalker, Freddy Krueger. This time around, Freddy is picking off a group of troubled teens confined to a psychiatric ward, led by Patricia Arquette and aided by Nancy Thompson (Heather Langenkamp), the final girl from the original film. To survive, these Elm Street kids must learn to harness their unique dream powers to stop Krueger once and for all.
Followed by author discussion and book signing in the lobby after the feature.
