A TV evangelist excises a tumor from the body of a loyal worshipper, who soon coughs up the growth. Unknown to her, the cancer is actually a carnivorous life form that slithers its way into her son Cody while he sleeps, growing inside him until he is completely under its control. Now Cody must feed the beast fresh victims to keep them both alive.

One of the most legendary and notorious VHS releases of the video store era, Bret McCormicks’s Super 8 splatter spectacular remains the definitive document of the gore-soaked 1980’s independent movie scene.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Bret McCormick via Zoom Video.

This event is hosted by Matt Desiderio of Horror Boobs and Forbidden Planet, with free giveaways of Blu-rays, DVDs and collectibles. Followed by an after party in Lo-Res where Desiderio will DJ an all-vinyl set.

Written and directed by Bret McCormick, The Abomination stars Scott Davis, Jude Johnson, Blue Thompson, Brad McCormick, Suzy Meyer, Rex Morton, Victoria Chaney, Gaye Bottoms, Van Connery and Bubba Moore.
