The Friday Night Schlock Block is BACK! Come see why this block is quickly becoming a must-watch October tradition.

Writer/director/animator Mike McAllister Mike J. McAllister, is bringing our favorite animated homicidal host, John Boy McBrewer, back to life (literally...again). John Boy will be taking your calls, reading fan mail, and, of course, terrorizing his hapless crew members in between a fresh batch of grade-A B-movie shorts. It’s like The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs on acid.

Trust us, you do not want to miss this one. Get your tickets now! 📼 🔪

The restaurant is dead in more ways than one. A huge party has canceled and dashed the staff's hopes of a big holiday tip. Surviving the shift becomes much more than side work and a deep clean, when a Karen, unhappy with her service, goes on a spree to murder the entire staff.

Starring Jenna Kanell from Terrifier & Renfield. Clock in early on Friday night to watch the blood spill! 📼 🔪
