QUEER HORROR gets possessed by THE CONVENT (2000) with stars Liam Kyle Sullivan (Kelly, "Shoes") and Megahn Perry (Heather the Vampire) in attendance, including a RARE Kelly performance! Hosted by Portland's premier drag clown Carla Rossi, this Halloween season screening is sponsored by Double Mountain Brewery and Cidery. Dress up, get your limited edition bottle of Mother Inferior Blackberry Hard Cider, and hear Carla chat with Megahn and Liam about THE CONVENT, "Shoes," "Text Message Breakup," and more!
Directed by Mike Mendez, THE CONVENT stars Megahn Perry (THE PERFECT HOST, Buffy the Vampire Slayer) as Mo, a Y2K-era goth who sneaks into a shuttered convent with friends Clorissa (Joanna Canton) and Brant (Liam Kyle Sullivan)—until inept Satanists show up and get everyone possessed by demonic day-glo nuns. Enter genre legend Adrienne Barbeau (CREEPSHOW, THE FOG) as Christine, the O.G. Final Girl who fought the nuns decades before, arriving on her motorcycle with an arsenal of weaponry to blow the convent back to hell once and for all. Co-starring Kelly Mantle (RuPaul's Drag Race), Coolio, and Bill Moseley, and playing like a rave-era tribute to NIGHT OF THE DEMONS (1988), THE CONVENT is a fast-paced, hilarious, neon-dripping cult classic that—if you haven't seen it—is about to become your new favorite horror film.
