Street Food Cinema Halloween Screenings Information

As its name suggests, Street Food Cinema screens movies outdoors. Their year-round programming includes some genre titles, but things definitely take a turn toward terror every October, with horror films screened in several outdoor locations around town: Victory Park in Pasadena, Will Rogers State Historic Park in Pacific Palisades, etc.

For Halloween 2019, Street Food Cinema introduced a new Halloween Cinema Event, Cinema Phantasmagoria, a sort of immersive experience inside the Million Dollar Theatre, with costumed actors transporting guests back into the 1920s (reviewed here). For an added fee, there was a guided tour through the basement and behind the screen, featuring spooky settings and scares.

Unfortunately, the 2020 pandemic lockdown prevented a follow-up event that year. Street Cinema resurrected the basic approach in 2022, offering two installments of Slasher Cinema, also at the Million Dollar Theatre. Each installment was themed to the film being screened: “Totally ’80s” featured A Nightmare on Elm Street, and “That’s So ’90s,” featured Scream. As with Cinema Phantasmagoria, there was live entertainment on stage (a quiz and a costume contest, and there was a behind-the-scenes walkthrough, though in this case the tour was self-guided, with only a few costumed characters (reviewed here).

In 2023, Street Food Cinema introduced Boo-Ze, Bites & Frights, a 21-and-over event at Heritage Square Museum, including cocktails, snacks, trick-or-treating, tours of the museum’s Victorian mansions, and horror movie double bills.
