Don’t touch that dial!
In the late 1950’s young actor Joyce is given the opportunity to take her love of horror movies to the next level, as a Horror Host of a late night television B Movie Extravaganza: Miss Spidra’s Night Parlor.
And some 50 years later, an older Joyce reflects on the challenges, the fun, and the schlock, when a documentary considers her legacy.
This world premiere from Joseph Zettelmaier (All Childish Things, Pulp, The Man-Beast) is a comedic drama about schlocky horror and what happens when you start living a dream you didn’t know you had.
10 words: The Night Parlor is open: don’t touch that dial.
