Matt and Mike Read Comics Episode 23: Midnite Show

Episode 23 of Matt and Mike (and Melissa) Read Comics is a one-off from one of our favorite authors, Cullen Bunn. The Midnite Show. An homage to the midnight showing of horror movies of old, the story begins with legendary horror director Basil Saxon (best name ever) working on his magnum opus when a tragic fire destroys the production. The movie is, allegedly, never finished and lost to history. Until the present when what was thought to be lost footage has been found and is now being shown at a - you guessed it - midnight show! But the movie is cursed, and famed monsters of old start popping up in the real world and a group of civilians is stuck in the middle. Bodies drop EVERYWHERE. Just when you think you know who the main character, the hero, is - BOOM - fucking dead. Loved every panel of this book.
