The Australian Zoo is opening its gates after hours this Halloween for the first edition of Zooflix – an ongoing series of films screened in the Zoo’s central lawns.

The series will kick off with Wolf Creek – ensuring a good amount of queasiness and startled yelps amongst the filmgoers huddled in the eerily quiet zoo.

Grab a couple of mates and head along to see John Jarratt grumble, laugh maniacally and wave a knife and a bunch of poor backpackers, while the siamangs next door watch on and wonder what all the shrieking is about.

The event will feature a licensed snack bar – no BYO booze – and attendees are welcome to pack a picnic along with picnic rugs and cushions.

Tickets are $25 and available here.
