Greetings! The purpose of this group is for like minded people in the DC/Nova metro area to meetup and enjoy films classifiable as horror, cult, bizarre, and/or independent.  Activities would mostly include film viewings, but other ideas are also welcome. Anyone who is a buff of 1 or more of the above genres has come to the right place.  The goal is to have group consensus steer the way. Welcome! Oz
