Classic Film Series
It’s Time to Panic…Again!
As any slasher fan will tell you, horror icons never die. After a hair-raisingly fun inaugural year, our horror film series is back to haunt the hallowed halls of the Paramount once more. And this is one sequel you don’t want to miss.
This year’s all-killer no-filler lineup includes scary-good fun and bone-chilling frights guaranteed to keep you up at night. Revisit genre legends like FRIDAY THE 13TH and THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE. See instant classics PEARL and X as you’ve never seen them before – on glorious 35mm. Join our friends at Hyperreal Film Club for a screening of 28 DAYS LATER. And celebrate the 30th anniversary of family favorite HOCUS POCUS the right way – ad-free on the big screen.
If you’re looking for 100% pure Halloween vibes, the Paramount is the place to be this spooky season.

Transit Options
While finding parking in downtown Austin can be a challenge, finding a transit line that gets you there is easy! Try transit to and from the Paramount Theatre. It costs less than covered parking and you’ll avoid circling the city looking for a spot. Nearby transit stops include 8th/Congress, 8th/Lavaca, 8th/Guadalupe, 7th/Colorado or take MetroRail to the Downtown Station.
Transit Routes: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 10, 19, 20, 30, 801, 803, 985 and MetroRail will get you there!
