To hell with plastic surgery. Instead of looking younger, opt for the undead look with a zombie “make-under” from a cosmetic mortician at the Halloween Gallery of Horrors. The Captured Aural Phantasy Theater has been scaring the crap out of folks since 1979 with their vintage pop-culture variety shows, and this year they're pulling out all the stops. Not only will your fave comic-book heroes come to life, you'll witness men who turn into monsters before your very eyes, you'll hear creepy music, you'll see art that makes you blow chow, and you'll feel — hey, what's that slimy thing writhing down your pants!
