In Person Pre-Screening of The Offering, a Tale of Ancient Hasidic Demons

Monday at 6:00pm PST


In the wake of a young Jewish girl's disappearance, the son of a Hasidic funeral director returns home with his pregnant wife in hopes of reconciling with his father. Little do they know that directly beneath them in the family morgue, an ancient evil with sinister plans for the unborn child lurks inside a mysterious corpse. Tapping into Jewish mysticism, The Offering aims to blend harrowing drama with an exciting twist on classic horror conventions.

Enjoy one complimentary beverage from our cash bar and movie snacks with your ticket purchase to be enjoyed during cocktail hour before the film begins. After viewing the film, we will enjoy a Q&A with Producer Jonathan Yunger and Writer/Producer Hank Hoffman of Millenium Media, moderated by Rabbi Sherre Hirsch.
