SplatterFest

SplatterFest returns this year with its usual lineup of locally made short films, camp features (“Adopting Terror!”) — and a day full of ’80s awesomeness.

Anthony Michael Hall will spend the day in town Oct. 6, mingling with fans and screening several of his most iconic films, including “The Breakfast Club,” “Sixteen Candles” and “Weird Science.” Hall’s appearance is part of AmazingFest, “an expansion into a broader pop culture festival.” (We were wondering how it fit into the horror theme.)
