About this event
Rondo Award-winning authors and Chicago horror enthusiasts Jon Kitley (Kitley’s Krypt) and Aaron Christensen (HORROR 101 with Dr. AC) are back to Share the Scare once again—this time covering HOUSES OF HORROR: THE STUDIOS THAT MADE THE SCREAMS! Prime yourself for Halloween with four fun-filled weeks celebrating fright flicks and horror culture from across the globe. Welcome to TERROR TUESDAYS AT SULZER! Week 2: AIP – MASTERS OF THE DRIVE-IN! Sam Arkoff, James H. Nicholson, and Roger Corman cranked out hundreds of films to satisfy the growing youth market in the 1950s, eventually changing the face of cinema forever. Everything from huge creature features to hot-rod sci-fi mash-ups to classy color adaptations of Edgar Allan Poe starring Vincent Price, American-International Pictures (AIP) became THE low-budget studio that challenged the majors... and won.
