The House by the Cemetery (1981)

That mingling of coziness and terror that we call home is the subject of the Brattle's Dead Of Winter: Haunted Houses on Film series. It starts today with a preview screening of Ti West's The Innkeepers (2011; 7:30 pm), about a pair of employees at an old New England inn who want to prove that it's haunted. Also screening is the uncut European version of Lucio Fulci's House by the Cemetery (1981; 10 pm + midnight), a gruesome tale of a couple enduring the horrors of the title domicile. It should provide a little extra frisson for local audiences because it was shot in Concord and Scituate. That's Friday, January 13 at the Brattle is at 40 Brattle St, Cambridge | call for ticket info | 617.876.6837 or brattlefilm.org.
