It's another light weekend for horror in the bay area, in anticipation of people being out of town. But we have tons of things on the horizon, so next week should be a totally different story. We are in for a rare screening this Sunday, with the return of Video Vortex at the Alamo Drafthouse San Francisco. And if you missed Tragedy Girls at Another Hole in the Head, or Blade of the Immortal on Halloween night, both will be screening at the New Parkway Theatre. I'd recommend both!

Wings Hauser both stars in and directs The Art of Dying. Hauser plays Jack, a vice cop who tries to unravel the mystery behind a series of murders in which each of the corpses has been found with stage makeup on its face. Turns out that the killer is Roscoe (Gary Werntz), a demented movie-maker whose overwhelming desire for realism has resulted in a variety of horrible deaths for his unwary actors. Each victim is dispatched in a manner evoking a famous film: one is killed in the shower, another dies while playing Russian Roulette a la The Deer Hunter, and so forth.
