666 Fridays: The Blair Witch Project

Palace Central proudly presents 666 FRIDAYS, curated by Static Vision, where you’ll find the most devious, deranged and demonic horror and genre flicks this side of Transylvania, every Friday at 8:30pm from Jan 11 – Feb 22 in our 66-seat theatrette of terror, Cinema 6(66).  This season we’re proud to be showcasing the amazing work of women in horror, commencing with three films that feature incredible performances from their female leads, followed by our February Women In Horror Month screenings, showcasing four significant contemporary horror films directed by women.

No introduction is needed for our final January film THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT (1999), back to the big screen for the first time since its initial theatrical run – 20 years to the day since its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival on Jan 25! Driven by an unforgettable performance from Heather Donahue, Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sánchez’s found footage, witch-hunting shocker is a remarkable low-budget gem and a masterclass on working within cinematic limitations to create something truly terrifying.
