Want to see brain-eating zombies, Italian exploitation/cult favorites and an animal-amok classic on the big screen for free? If you live north of New York City, you now have a chance.

Back in the late 1980s, after the “satanic panic” that saw the genre waging endless wars with political watchdog’s like Tipper and Al Gore and the censorial choke of the MPAA, horror films really were a dirty secret, especially the messier ones. With MPAA chief Jack Valenti and his group of moral guardians dishing out prohibitive ratings to anything remotely offensive, splatter went underground and the fans followed. FANGORIA was always there to wage war, to fight the good fight to get all things gross and upsetting represented in entertainment. And one of the most potent tools in their arsenal was the beloved Fango sister mag GOREZONE.

FANGORIA and Mirvish Productions want to send two lucky Toronto-area Fango fans to see GHOST STORIES, the terrifying and visually arresting British stage sensation currently playing at the Canadian city’s Panasonic Theatre.

Out-of-control genre director Yoshihiro Nishimura blazes into New York City this Thursday, April 28 with the local premiere of his new movie HELLDRIVER, which he and his star, AUDITION’s Eihi Shiina (pictured), will attend. And we’re offering a chance to see it for free!
