So I was at the Calgary Film Festival over the weekend to do a fun Wynonna Earp thing — which was really, really fun, as you’ll see when the festival posts the whole panel on YouTube next week — but now I’m back and returning to my Toronto-based engagements.

Like what? Well, tonight I’m introducing this month’s NOW Free Flick at The Royal, and it’s a goodie: We’re in a Halloween frame of mind, so we’re screening John Carpenter’s The Thing.

You know the movie. But if you need a refresher, check out Kat Angus’ episode of Someone Else’s Movie from earlier this summer; it’s a goodie too.

Screening-wise, it’s the same deal as always: Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:30 pm. The first hundred guests get free popcorn, and everybody gets a free movie. How can you turn this down?

Honestly, you can’t. I’ll see you there.
