They Came from the Parking Lot

They Came From the Parking Lot Part IV: Seeds of Evil {Video}

December 24, 2017 By //  by The Beardsgaards Leave a Comment

Everybody loves pumpkins. That is, until they…TURN. Featuring the crews of Beardsgaard and Poke Your Eye Out Games, with endless thanks to our brave hosts, Sugar Grove Pumpkin farm. Beardsgaard Barbers is proud to present, a D-movie horror movie disasterpiece: “They Came From The Parking Lot Part IV: Seeds of Evil.”

We feel we should explain how all this came about.

It all started in 2014 with some pumpkins given to us by Batavia Main Street, carved epically by our OG shop neighbors at Fallen Star Tattoo. After Halloween weekend in the front windows, we returned to find pumpkins that looked like Walking Dead extras.

Someone made a joke about how we should “smash some pumpkins.” It all kind of spiraled from there, now for four years in a row. We even made T-shirts.

Parking Lot III: Evil Is Brewing ~ Movie Screening

November 30, 2016 By //  by The Beardsgaards

They Came from the Parking Lot sprung from a post-Halloween musing that in lieu of a simple disposal of now-smushy seasonal decorative produce, we should be “smashing pumpkins” instead. Then we made some napalm, gathered the horror movie nerds on the block, and the rest is history.

This now-yearly zombie pumpkin destructathon tradition gives us an excuse to pull out all the stops and regress to being children with adult resources to make astonishingly terrible short films.

Everybody loves pumpkins. That is, until they…TURN. With music by No Zodiac, and featuring the both Beardsgaard employees, and a bunch of other nerds who showed up. Beardsgaard Barbers is proud to present, a D-movie horror movie disasterpiece: “They Came From The Parking Lot: Part Deux.”

We feel we should explain how all this came about.

Someone made a joke about how we should “smash some pumpkins.” It all kind of spiraled from there, now for multiple years in a row. We even made T-shirts.

They Came From the Parking Lot Part Deux Premiere

November 12, 2015 By //  by The Beardsgaards

Just before Halloween we asked Batavia to bring out their dead, in the form of their post-holiday used up pumpkins that they were going to be getting rid of anyway. Just in case there was any wondering about what we did with those pumpkins, the time will soon come where we will show you. In person.

Next Thursday, November 19th at 7:30 we will be showing a double header premiere of the original They Came From the Parking Lot, as well as They Came From the Parking Lot Part Deux, right here in the shop. And you’re all invited.

Everybody loves pumpkins. That is, until they…TURN. With music by Arcane Framework, and featuring the artists of Fallen Star Tattoo. Beardsgaard Barbers is proud to present, a D-movie horror movie disasterpiece: “They Came From The Parking Lot.”

It all started with some pumpkins given to us by Batavia Main Street, carved epically by our neighbors at Fallen Star Tattoo. After Halloween weekend in the front windows, we returned to find pumpkins that looked like Walking Dead extras.

Someone (Colin) made a joke about how we should “smash some pumpkins.” We had a brief lull in the day on a gloomy November Tuesday, and it spiraled from there.
