Lambertville Screening Room To Host Halloween Drive-In Fun

LAMBERTVILLE, NJ — After devastating flooding in the remnants of Hurricane Ida, it's unclear when the Acme Screening Room can reopen its doors. But despite needing to reschedule its first annual Halloween Film Festival until next year, the screening room will still present Acme Halloween: Plan B.

The drive-in event will celebrate the holiday spirit with several back-to-back films at the screening room's drive-in location, highlighting some of the shorts that were submitted to the film festival.

Full-length feature films on display include the new release 13 Fanboy, and the original Halloween. Directed by scream queen Deborah Voorhees, 13 Fanboy features a lineup of talent includingDeborah Voorhees, Dee Wallace, and Corey Feldman. It tells the story of former scream queens from the Friday The 13th series, who are hunted by a real life killer who doesn't understand that it's all make-believe.

Then John Carpenter's seminal 1978 classic Halloween returns in full 4K restoration.

The outdoor location is at 204 N Union St, behind Thai Tida restaurant.

The lot opens at 6 p.m., with films beginning at 7 p.m.

"Feel free to come early, park your car, see the local decorations,and then tailgate during our double feature lineup," screening representatives write in a news release.

Tickets are $40 per car. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit the website.
