Wanting to ring in the new year with a bang, Karen has selected the 1980 slasher film “New Year’s Evil” for our viewing pleasure this week. Join Greg and Karen as they discuss and critique the film while drinking a “Stroke of Midnight Cocktail”. Below is the drink recipe that Karen discovered on cointreau.com.

Instructions:

1. Combine ingredients apart from champagne in a mixing glass.
2. Add ice and stir briefly.
3. Strain into a chilled champagne flute.
4. Top off with champagne.
5. Garnish with an orange twist.

A Brief Synopsis: Lonely women wanting to celebrate New Year’s Eve become easy prey for a maniacal murdering misogynist whose New Year’s resolution is to kill women at every stroke of midnight.
