LADIES NIGHT FILM SERIES

LADIES NIGHT is a bi-monthly (mostly horror) series hosted by long time Stray Cat programmer & board member Danielle Krakenberg.

Ladies Night aims to explore and redefine femininity in genre cinema by challenging preconceived notions of what’s expected of women in genre films. With film selections highlighting empowered, determined, passionate and psychotic women. These are not your usual “chick-flicks”… and that’s the point.

It's called Ladies Night, but people of all genders are welcome!
