Mr. Moribund's Theatre of Terror to feature classic film

Mr. Moribund's Theatre of Terror will hold its next live shows at 7:30 p.m., Friday, Oct. 18 and Saturday, Oct. 19, at the Riverfront Theater in Milford, featuring the 1957 monster movie “The Amazing Colossal Man.” Doors open at 7 p.m. Tickets are $5 per person and will only be sold at the door.

The show will feature a screening of the film, along with live performances by the Theatre of Terror cast, live music and comedy, costume contests for adults and children, raffles, vendors in the lobby, and audience participation. The Moribunch show fans have the opportunity to win one of a series of Moribund cereal boxes filled with prizes, along with other treats offered by local businesses, in the raffle that benefits True Colors, a charity aiding homeless LGBTQ+ teens and youths.

“’The Amazing Colossal Man’ was one the first monster movies I remember enjoying as a kid, and I'm looking forward to sharing it with our audience, the Moribunch,” said W.J. Walton, show creator and performer.

Since 2015, Mr. Moribund's Theatre of Terror has presented a series of live shows at the Riverfront Theater. The shows are modeled after the classic horror host television programs of the 1950s through today. They feature a classic film from the golden age of monster movies along with comedy sketches, live music and talent performances, costume contests, audience participation and more. The events often feature additional attractions such as a macabre art show, art vendors, face painting and more in the lobby and outside the venue to enjoy before the show.
