The Grand Illusion

A double feature of horror movies by writer/director Jeremy Saulnier (BLUE RUIN, REBEL RIDGE).

First up, in Saulnier’s underseen and recently restored debut, MURDER PARTY, an average Joe loser named Chris finds an invitation to a costume party on Halloween Eve in Brooklyn. Arriving at the “party,” Chris discovers he’s fallen prey to a lethal trap set by deranged artists. As the night wears on, rivalries within the group flare up. A body count accrues, and Chris must take advantage of the ensuing chaos if he’s to survive the night.

Then, in GREEN ROOM, struggling punk band The Ain’t Rights get an unexpected booking at an isolated, run-down club in the backwoods of Oregon. After witnessing a terrible act of violence backstage, they find themselves facing off against the club’s depraved neo-Nazi owner, setting the stage for an ultimate life-or-death showdown. Don’t miss your chance to catch this intense horror/thriller for its 10th anniversary in a building that houses multiple music venues (and is thankfully operated by FAR better people than those who run the venue in the movie).

Please note: Here-After is a 21 and over establishment. The entrance is via the alley in back of The Crocodile building. Get there early to order tasty beverages from the bar and delicious food from Tat’s Deli!
