Movie Night 2013, No. 4: House of Dark Shadows

The final movie night event at the Roediger House for 2013: House of Dark Shadows


Good Lord, this movie is horrible. Which is why this evening's crowd that gathered in the chill October air seemed to enjoy it so much: it was fun to watch a film that never meant to be campy when it was made back in 1970, and that makes it pretty awesome for a fall movie night.

It didn't get as cold as the 2009 showing of The Shining, when temps at the end of the movie were at 43F (with a Real-Feel of 38F!). But it was still down to just shy of the upper 40s when things wrapped up tonight. What cracks me up is that the night turned into another great impromptu upstairs porch party, where we were all bundled up but enjoying the great view of a rising nearly-full moon over the city skyline (sort of like this).
