Fright Fest 2020 screenings and contest!

This October, you can be part of a new ECU tradition: the 1^st Annual ECU Fright Test! This Virtual Film Festival offers 31 movies for the 31 days of October, everything from Hellraiser to Halloween! The Virtual Film Festival offers a list of all 31 films, some of which are available to rent at the Linscheid Library. Even better, three films (The Exorcist, Nightmare on Elm Street, and the 2019 Halloween) will be screened at the Ada Cinemark 8! To find out how to watch all the films, check out www.justwatch.com.

After you get a few films under your belt, the Virtual Film Fest challenges you to write about your near-death experiences! Write an analytical essay (you know, the kind you normally write in English and Humanities courses) about one of the films on the list and submit it to ecuenglishandlanguages@ecok.edu OR e-mail or turn in a hard copy to any English professor you see on the third floor. The Virtual Film Fest will award prizes to the top three entries. For more information about the contest or any questions, please e-mail the English department at the address above.
