Pics from the Premiere of FINAL GIRLS!

Last nights bittersweet closing night of Midnight Madness 2015 was the biggest party of the whole Festival. Special guests, a surprise encore screening of the crowd-pleasing The Chickening, and a packed Ryerson theatre made for one of the wildest screenings in the Midnight Madness 2015 lineup. Ian Goring was there to snap pics of all the action!

The final line on the final night of Midnight Madness, for The Final Girls.

Pics From the Premiere of HARDCORE!

Many members of the Midnight audience were driven to nausea for very different reasons than usual last night. The first-person POV actioner Hardcore was thrilling and unique, and shutterbug Ian Goring was there to capture all the craziness from last night's premiere!

Despite the second cold and rainy night in a row, the devoted Midnight audience stuck it out for Hardcore

Pics From the Premiere of BASKIN!

A dark and rainy setting for a dark and gritty horror film!
On a dark and stormy night, one of the bloodiest and most extreme movies to ever grace the Midnight Madness screen touched down at the Ryerson last night, eliciting more than a few uncomfortable squirms from the Midnight audience. By the time Baskin's end credits crawled up the screen, even a crowd that is more than used to this type of fare was left reeling at what they'd just witnessed.

Ian Goring snapped a few pictures of the festivities as the rain-soaked patrons of the Ryerson experienced the most shocking screenings of this year's lineup!
