Outdoor screening of the horror-thriller 'Scream' (1996) at Rooftop Cinema Club's Uptown series, rated 16+.
Rooftop Cinema Club is screening Scream (1996) on Tuesday, October 27, at their Uptown location in Houston. It's part of their outdoor film series, so you'll be watching it under the open sky rather than inside a traditional theater.
If you haven't seen it, Scream is a horror-thriller that works as a satire of the slasher genre. It runs 111 minutes and follows a mysterious killer who starts picking off teenagers in a small California town. As the body count rises, a girl and her friends find themselves living out the 'rules' of horror films in real life—the kind of rules they're talking about while the movie is happening. It's a self-aware take on the whole genre, which makes it a good fit for a Halloween-season screening.

The showing starts at 6:30 PM, and the age rating is 16+, so it's not one for the little ones. Doors open an hour before the film begins, which gives you plenty of time to get settled in before the first scene kicks off. Since it's an outdoor screening, it's worth keeping the weather in mind when you're planning your night.
