Watch the trailer

Starts at about 9:30 p.m. Area premiere. In 1989, a group of unknown Utah actors starred in what would be crowned the worst movie of all time: Troll 2. After two decades of running from this cinematic disaster, the cast can no longer hide from the legion of followers that celebrate them for their ineptitude. Best Worst Movie, directed by Troll 2's once-disgraced child star, Michael Paul Stephenson, unravels the stories of these unforgettable real-life characters and the colorful army of devotees who continue to revel in the film's perfectly flawed brilliance. (2010. 93 min. High-def Digital Projection.)

Starts at about 11:30 p.m. The "best worst movie" that inspired Best Worst Movie! Joshua and his family find themselves in the peaceful town of Nilbog. Once there, Joshua's dead grandfather returns to warn him of the evils of Nilbog and tries to get him to convince his family to leave. His parents and sister ignore him. Joshua learns that the town's inhabitants are actually goblins (get it? "Nilbog") and that their mission is to get outsiders to eat their goblin food, turning them into trees which can be eaten and devoured (the goblins are vegetarians). He must work with the ghost of his grandfather to rid the town of its goblins and restore peace to Nilbog. Directed by the incomparable Claudio Fragasso. (1990. 95 min. 35mm.)

Starts at about 1:40 a.m. Drew Barrymore, David Arquette, Courtney Cox. Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) has more than her share of teenage angst to cope with. Her mom was murdered a year ago, her dad is perpetually away on business, and her boyfriend Billy is pressuring her to go all the way. As if that weren't enough, a brilliant serial killer has begun to terrorize Sidney's quiet hometown. With the calculated genius of a perfect predator, the killer is using his love of scary movies to turn the town upside down — taking everything he knows about the genre to trick his victims, outwit the police and throw his pursuers off base. Now no one is safe, and everyone is a suspect. Directed by Wes Craven from the watershed screenplay by Kevin Williamson. (1996. 111 min. High-Def Digital Projection.)

Starts at about 3:40 a.m. After the painful breakup of her marriage, Nola Carveth seeks treatment at an experimental psychiatric clinic known as the Somafree Institute of Psychoplasmatics. While there, under the care of Dr. Raglan, the institute's founder, she is encouraged to work through her subconscious feelings of hurt and rage in a rather novel way: through bodily manifestation. Some of the clinic's patients develop grotesque sores, others cancerous growths or tumors. But Nola goes a step further. She gives "birth" to living incarnations of her darkest inner impulses. Once released, they exact gruesome revenge for every real and imagined slight that Nola has suffered over the course of her troubled life. One of director David Cronenberg's darkest and most twisted films. (1979. 92 min. 35mm.)

Starts at about 5:25 a.m. Bruce Campbell and writer-director Sam Raimi pair up for the first installment in the cult phenomenon that is the Evil Dead trilogy. Five twentysomething friends are holed up in a remote cabin where they discover a Book Of The Dead. An archaeologist's tape recording reveals that the ancient text was discovered among the Khandarian ruins of a Sumerian civilization. Playing the taped incantations, the youths unwittingly summon up dormant demons living in the nearby woods, which possess the youngsters in succession until only one is left intact to fight for survival. (1981. 85 min. 35mm.)

Starts at about 7 a.m. Brad Dourif, Alex Vincent, Catherine Hicks, Chris Sarandon. When serial killer Charles Lee Ray is mortally wounded in a police shoot-out, he uses a voodoo spell to transfer his soul into Chucky, a "Good Guys" doll. When young and unsuspecting Andy Barclay receives the doll as a birthday gift, Chucky resumes his killing spree. Not wanting to be trapped in the body of a doll forever, Chucky's only escape is to take Andy's body for himself. Directed by Tom Holland. (1988. 87 min. High-def Digital Projection.)
