thinking of getting a polaroid camera?
this movie may put you off getting one

With Halloween just round the corner; this was the perfect opportunity to give everybody a definite scare and set the spooky atmosphere :O

Before the viewing both Kelv and Cue completely emptied the shelves of popcorn from the local supermarket, and received surprised looks from passing customers (which i found rather hilarious lolz). Afterwards they prepared bagging the popcorn for our movie snacks.

As the doors of our venue open our whole team got started to set-up and welcome our newcomers.

For our display we initially opted for triple projector screen viewing; which made it harder to look away from the jumpy scenes *evil chuckle* but only the main center projector and one side screen were functioning; despite the minor tech hiccup we still had a great viewing.
 
We chose the Thai horror film 'SHUTTER' (the original version) which involved photography and a rather creepy looking 'Grudge' girl.  One of our members - Stefan - decided to dress up as this 'Grudge' character and offered to kindly "welcome" our visitors at the entrance which helped add to the overall atmosphere.

As with most horror films there were screams and jumps though-out; I could literally feel my whole row bounce at particular scenes. Our PR Antony has never been a particular big horror fan and watching him hide behind his jacket was just as enjoyable as watching the movie. Being the kind/comforting committee that we are - we managed to reassure Antony of when to look at the 'happy' scenes within the movie; which turned out to be the precursor of a horrifying scene (He was not amused).

After the movie there were many mixed reactions: some found it very enjoyable, others were absolutely terrified and few were hesitant of walking/driving home alone. For me I loved it! but the film got me a bit paranoid whenever i see white smudges on my photographs :O

Also one member - Lesley - kindly offered to make delicious macaroons for everybody. 
We'd like to thank both Her and Stefan on making our night even more awesome! ;)


Thanks for reading
