Even though Halloween is dead, you can still get your ghoul on. Those creepy folks at the Olympia Film Festival offer All Freakin’ Night, a late night mini-fest of mind-numbing unadulterated films sure to cause at least one of your major organs to fail.  Beginning at midnight Saturday, Nov. 14 and running through early morning Sunday, five flicks will flicker with enough carnage to terrify, not just sicken:

Starchaser: The Legend of Orin in 3-D — This over-the-top mix of Star Wars and Excalibur set in underground mines several millennia in the future is one wacky animated cult film.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2 — Texas’ feared Sawyer family returns in Tobe Hooper’s darkly comic sequel to his precedent-setting original.

Rolling Thunder — John Flynn’s 1977 flick a genuine cult classic that wraps a chilling character study inside the bloody trappings of a revenge thriller.

Street Trash — A comedic horror film or a horrific comedy, take your pick.

A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge —A new family, the Walshes, have moved into the former home of Nancy Thompson. The Walshes' son, Jesse, happens to move into Nancy's old room. He eventually begins to have nightmares of Freddy demanding that Jesse kill for him.

Wedged between the movies will be a terrible costume contest, repulsive brain-eating contest, trivia, toys, candy and plenty of putrid prizes.

All Freakin Night will be the final piece to this year's Olympia Film Festival, which begins Friday, Nov. 6. For the full Olympia Film Festival schedule click here.
