CARNIVAL OF SOULS (1962) — $3

October 25 : 6:00 pm 7:30 pm

Welcome to Arkadin’s inaugural TWISTED CARNIVAL! With games, live entertainment, and evil clown show on the backlot and a night full of clown- and carnival-based horror films in the theater (all ticketed separately), this promises to be a night full of fun and terror!

“Sublimely creepy, a disorienting tale from the dark side with an uncanny knack for making your spine itch.” -Atlanta Journal-Constitution

A young woman (Candace Hilligoss) in a small Kansas town survives a drag race accident, then agrees to take a job as a church organist in Salt Lake City. En route, she is haunted by a bizarre apparition that compels her toward an abandoned lakeside pavilion. Made by industrial filmmakers on a small budget, the eerily effective B-movie classic Carnival of Souls was intended to have “the look of a Bergman and the feel of a Cocteau”—and, with its strikingly used locations and spooky organ score, it succeeds. Herk Harvey’s macabre masterpiece gained a cult following on late-night television and continues to inspire filmmakers today. It’s the perfect feature to kick off of our Twisted Carnival!

Meanwhile, on the backlot our TWISTED CARNIVAL will be in full force, featuring:

  • Carnival games with prizes!
  • Live entertainers!
  • Clown face painters!
  • Vegan corn dogs by Vegan Deli & Butcher!
  • Dirty sodas by SODIES!
  • Evil clown show on the big screen!
