If there was ever a place to talk to the scream queen, it would be at Farmingdale, New York’s Necromantic Brew Co. Earlier this month, the brewery hosted an event featuring Rose and the hilarious Dave Sheridan as they hung out, signed autographs, played drinking games, and provided commentary for “Victor Crowley,” “Scary Movie,” and for its 40th anniversary, “Sleepaway Camp.”  I highly recommend “Sleepaway Camp” with live commentary from Felissa Rose, just for the record.
