공포 또는 공포-블? 여름 영화 밤 | 주간 시청 파티 및 토론

**********If you're interested in this class, please save this listing so I will be notified. With enough interest, I will add some dates to the schedule.**********


Cheesy dialogue! Special effects...technically! Overdramatic acting! Outdated clothing and hairstyles! Black and white! Oh no! Go to the movies without leaving your room as we count down to Halloween with horror and sci-fi films from the 1920s-60s.

🍿  👾  👻  🎥  🧠  🎟️  🧛‍♂️  🧟‍  🎬  🛸  🎞️

📽️ WATCH:
Once per week, we'll be watching a horror or sci-fi movie IN CLASS! We’ll see some genuinely great films, and then there are movies that may have some of you questioning why they were made. But even if you think it’s a “bad” movie, you can still enjoy the cheesiness! (Trust me, cheesiness is pretty much a guarantee.) 🧀

🗣️ DISCUSS:
After the film, I'll have you guess the average rating. You may be surprised. Then I'll share some behind the scenes information before turning it over to you to share your opinions and discuss some plot points. To end class, we'll have a sneak peek at next week's selection.

🥳 AFTER CLASS:
You'll receive a personalized certificate for "surviving" the film--just for fun. Each movie has a different certificate, featuring characters and quotes from the movie. Frame it! Hang it on the fridge! Show your friends! Be proud of that thing; you've earned it.

If you decide to come weekly, we're going to have an ongoing ranking of the movies to see which film comes out on top!

🙋Roll Call!
Class needs at least 3 learners. If there are less than 3 learners 24 hours before class, I'll cancel it and refund you. Whatever movie was on the schedule will be pushed to the following week.


🍿***MOVIE SCHEDULE***🍿
Class is scheduled for 90 minutes, but several weeks will be extended 10-15 minutes to allow for discussion. Any changes to the schedule will be announced well in advance.

🤔💭 Questions you may be wondering...

- “Why can't we watch something modern?”
I want to introduce you to movies you would most likely never watch on your own. There are some hidden gems in here!
More importantly, it's illegal! The movies in this class are all in the public domain, which means I am legally allowed to show them in a class like this. I can't do that with newer movies because of copyright laws.

- “What if I need to go get a snack, or use the bathroom, or text my friend back? Will you pause it?”
Make sure you take care of that before we start. However, each movie will have a five minute intermission somewhere around the middle if anyone needs a break.

- “What if I have a question about what's going on?”
I'll have everyone stay muted during the movie to avoid distractions, but feel free to use the chat if there's something you need to say/ask. We'll also have some time after the movie to discuss as a group.

- “If I hated the movie, can I get my money back?”
It's very possible that you won't like a movie on the list, but hopefully you'll still have fun watching and discussing with the class. Roasting a bad movie can be just as fun as praising a good one. But sorry, no refunds if you're not a fan. 
If you know you're not going to like a movie based on its synopsis or trailer, I suggest pausing that week.

Any other questions, please ask!
