With mainstream theaters flooded with holiday fare, New York City’s 92YTribeca (200 Hudson Street) continues to offer up genre goodness over the next few weeks, including a special appearance by one of horror’s greats.

On Wednesday, January 9 at 7 p.m., Don Coscarelli will be at 92YTribeca to host a special advance screening of his new exercise in screen freakiness, JOHN DIES AT THE END, based on David Wong’s novel. Coscarelli will do a Q&A after the movie, which will be followed by a 9:30 showing of his original classic PHANTASM. This Thursday, December 20 at 7:30 p.m., the venue will host a showing of Joaquín Romero Marchent’s CUT-THROATS NINE, a 1972 Spanish Western whose brutality and gore quotient led it to be marketed as a horror film during its original U.S. release—with “terror masks” given out to ticket buyers. It’s preceded by a collection of rare spaghetti Western trailers (you can bone up on the bloodier side of that genre in Fango #319, now on sale, which also has words with Coscarelli on JOHN DIES). For more details on these and other 92YTribeca presentations, hit up the official website.
