For this week's meeting of the Psychotronic Film Society, we welcome special guest Fred Sims to the show to discuss Peter Jackson's 1996 film THE FRIGHTENERS!

SYNOPSIS: Once an architect, Frank Bannister now passes himself off as an exorcist of evil spirits. To bolster his facade, he claims his “special” gift is the result of a car accident that killed his wife. But what he does not count on is more people dying in the small town where he lives. As he tries to piece together the supernatural mystery of these killings, he falls in love with the wife of one of the victims and deals with a crazy FBI agent.

Should THE FRIGHTENERS be the first Peter Jackson film to make it into the Psychotronic Hall of Fame?

We’d love to hear from you! Contact us at any of the social media accounts listed below or give us a call at (864) 372-9931 and leave us a voicemail of 3 minutes or less and we’ll play it on the next show!
