WEREWOLF DOUBLE FEATURE - Support the Eastern Wolf!

Purchase tickets to LATE PHASES & WOLFCOP and help protect the Eastern Wolf!


In our shared mythology, the wolf is a monster. It haunts our popular culture as a symbol of the carnivorous wild that has terrified human kind since prehistoric times as much as it represents the inner beast within us all. Especially in the horror genre, the wolf has been long associated with evil, terror, blood lust, and horror. But the wolf is not the monster of our medieval imaginations. It is an important species that, sadly, is under threat by a truly dangerous species: humanity.

That is why Fright Night Theatre has pledged to use our March 21st double-bill of werewolf films LATE PHASES and WOLFCOP to help support the Eastern Wolf of Ontario and Canada. After costs, we will be donating 50% of all ticket sales to the Bring Back the Wild™ project which aims to support Eastern wolf research and education.

TICKET PURCHASE LOCATIONS

ONLINE (Visa or Mastercard)

HAMMER CITY RECORDS (cash-only): 228 James St N Basement @ Rear Off Robert St. Hamilton, Ontario

CRASH LANDING (cash-only): 1189 Cannon Street East. Hamilton, Ontario

Donated funds will be used to:
  • Support telemetry research by Dr. Brent Patterson of the Ministry of Natural Resources to learn more about this apex predator’s movement patterns, current distribution and habitat use in Algonquin Provincial Park
  • Help verify a possible second Ontario eastern wolf population in the Queen Elizabeth II Wildlands
Eastern wolves were once plentiful in the forests of eastern North America, but human development has squeezed their population into smaller and smaller numbers. As a species of Special Concern in Canada, the eastern wolf is threatened by habitat loss, forest degradation and hunting

By supporting research of the eastern wolf and its habitat needs, initiatives like Bring Back the Wold will help the eastern wolf survive and expand in the future.

Screens With Short Film: THE MAN WHO CHOKED || Canadian Premiere ||  (dir. Ross Jameson)

Seating from 6:30pm

When a wounded war veteran (Nick Damici, STAKELAND) moves in to the retirement community of Crescent Bay, he discovers that residents are dying in a series of grisly attacks. But his take-no-prisoners attitude is just what he needs to survive as it becomes clear that the increasingly violent and horrific attacks are being caused by beasts that are neither animal nor man, and the tight-knit community of Crescent Bay is harboring something truly sinister in its midst. Also starring Ethan Embry (CHEAP THRILLS, EMPIRE RECORDS). LATE PHASES is the English language film debut of director Adrián García Bogliano (HERE COMES THE DEVIL).

Screens With Short Film: THIS NEIGHBORHOOD || Canadian Premiere ||  (dir. Jerry Ochoa)

Seating from 9:15pm

It's not unusual for alcoholic cop Lou Garou (Leo Fafard) to black out and wake up in unfamiliar surroundings, but after Garou finds himself at the center of an occult conspiracy, his life begins to get a lot hairier. When the moon is full, Lou becomes a rage-filled, booze swilling, pistol-slinging werewolf cop with a hunger for justice. With the help of his friends, he sets out to clean up his town and become a better man...one transformation at a time.


THIS NEIGHBORHOOD

A deeply disturbed man stalks his neighbors, believing God has instructed him to murder everyone around him in order to save mankind.
