A night at the movies turns terrifying when Michael and his date are attacked by zombies. Released at the height of Thriller’s success, the short film redefined the music video, broke racial barriers, and became the first inducted into the U.S. National Film Registry.
Dir. John Landis · With Michael Jackson, Ola Ray, Vincent Price
Charles Brady and his mother, Mary, are the last of a dying breed whose needs are not of this world. They are Sleepwalkers - able to stay alive only by feeding on the life-force of the innocent, but destined to roam the earth, avoiding discovery while searching for their next victim. That search takes them to the sleepy little town of Travis, Indiana, where beautiful teenager Tanya Robertson is about to become an unwilling pawn in their nightmarish fight for survival.
Dir. Mick Garris · With Brian Krause, Mädchen Amick, Alice Krige

A new caretaker moves with his family into the mysterious Overlook Hotel for the winter.
With Rebecca De Mornay, Steven Weber, Wil Horneff
