What do you get when you cross Bollywood horror films with October 31st? Why, Bollyween Party 2009, of course. Think outside the box this Halloween season and spend the night watching Indian horror musicals, lighting incense, dancing, and downing dosas. This Bollyween spectacular, hosted by Silent Movie Theater and Cinefamily, just proves there is no one way to celebrate All Hallows' Eve.

From the website: This Hallow's Eve, The Cinefamily joins forces with Dublab to throw the best Halloween party ever, Bollywood-style! One thing they really understand in India: every movie's better with song-and-dance numbers -- even horror movies! In that spirit, the Cinefamily premieres Bollyweird: The Movie -- our very own feature-length video mashup celebrating the most horrifying, fantastic, costume-crazed and outlandish moments of vintage Indian musical madness ever. This isn't just Bollywood, it's Bollyweeeeeird. Then, once the movie's over, we're gonna clear the couches, light the incense, make a dance floor, start doing the electric vindaloo, and have a real monster mashala! Drinks and dosas! Ghoulish giveaways! Costume prizes! DJ sets from the Dublab "Bloodsucking" Sound System! Live performances by freaks like Bobb Bruno, Private Beach, and Golden Hits! The Phantom Photo Booth! Franken Stand's vegan hot dogs! Terrifying tarot readings! The best Halloween ever! It's better than Halloween...its Bollyween!
