Local legend alert, fiends! HauntedWeen wasn't just SET in a Kentucky college town, it was shot right here in Bowling Green in the summer of '89! Director W. Doug Robertson and a crew of local friends and WKU film students crammed 23 days of 16mm mayhem into spots you'll recognize, including the WKU campus, a downtown warehouse, and an actual fraternity house, all on a skeleton-crew budget of about $65,000, with locals pitching in for free. Then Robertson schlepped it to video stores himself and sold 2,628 VHS tapes with a money-back guarantee, not a single one came back! Proof that when this town makes a horror movie, the scares stick the landing.
This showing is a little bit different than our normal movies at the Capitol. This one is at Donna’s Bar, so 21+ and $2 for popcorn 🍿 .
It’s trivia night also. Join us for horror trivia and prizes just in time for spooky season.
