About this event
Join us for a special Halloween screening of the Bad Seed (1956). Maxwell Anderson's play about a mother (Best Actress nominee Nancy Kelly) who suspects her seemingly perfect little 8-year-old daughter (Best Supporting Actress nominee Patty McCormack) is a ruthless killer. Kelly, McCormack, Henry Jones and Eileen Heckart reprise their roles from the Broadway production, which ends differently from the movie version. © Warner Bros - 127 minutes - PG Community Cinema is at a branch near you!
