Exhumed Films
Films shown regulary

Exhumed Films is the brainchild of four friends from the New Jersey/Philadelphia area: Dan Fraga, Joseph A. Gervasi, Harry Guerro and Jesse Nelson. The quartet, all of whom are now in their late-twenties or early-thirties, used to bemoan the fact that monster movies had all but disappeared from the big screen. They dreamt of a local theatre that would hold a midnight showing of their favorite horror films; since no one in the area seemed to be organizing such an event, they decided to take it upon themselves....
