In case that title didn’t make sense, it was just me trying to be witty! But the Midway Drive-in will be screening two classic modern horror films next Saturday, July 15th, on their huge 90ft screen!

The original Scream (1996), the one that started the whole resurgence of horror films in the ’90s, will start approximately 8:45pm. Following it will be Halloween II (1981), the real sequel to Carpenter’s original classic feature. Okay, while some might not enjoy it, and yes, it pales in comparison to the original, but I’ve always been a fan of this and still think it is a fun horror flick.

The Midway is screening these two films in a little pre-promotion of the upcoming Flashback Weekend convention, taking place in Rosemont, IL from Aug. 4th to the 6th. At the show, they will be having 4 guests from the original Scream, Skeet Ulrich, Rose McGowan, Jamie Kennedy, and Lee Waddell, and from Halloween II, they will have Dick Warlock, Lance Guest, Leo Rossi, and Alan Howarth. Not to mention reunions for Child’s Play 2, John Carpenter’s Christine, Terrifier 1 & 2, and many more amazing guests like Joe Bob Briggs & Darcy the Mail Girl!
