Monster Day at Boness Hippodrome

Cinema centenary celebrations continue with a day of spooky films.

by Amber Wilkinson

Scottish cinemagoers looking to extend their Halloween, should head to Bo'ness Hippodrome on Saturday November 17.

The cinema - which is currently celebrating its centenary - is hosting a Monster Day event.

There will be a screening of horror classic King Kong - with free bananas for the kids and a Fay Wray screaming competition - while adults can get an early look at EIFF monster hit Grabbers. The film's screenwriter Kevin Lehane will also be on hand to take part in a Screenwriting Masterclass.

The event will wrap up with a screening of spooky Seventies classic The Wicker Man.

The whole day has been programmed by the team of young ambassadors (aged 18-30) as part of the Hippodrome 100 project and those buying tickets to two or more events will get a 20 per cent discount.
