Steve Allen Theatres revs up Masters of Horror Drive In Series for April

Starting in April, the Steve Allen Theatre in Hollywood will present a “Masters of Horror Drive-In” series every Friday night at 8:00pm. A sort of follow-up to last year’s drive-in series (”Humans are Such Easy Prey“), the on-going fest will showcase double bills from filmmakers who worked on episodes on the namesake Showtime, each of whom will appear for a question-and answer session in between his episode and one of his feature films. Things start off on April third with director Joe Dante and THE HOWLING. Subsequent films include RIDING THE BULLET, ARMY OF DARKNESS, and THE CHANGELING.
