There always seem to be knives involved whenever tequila is around, which is only one of the reasons why the stuff is so terrifying. (The other is the sunken look of despair in the eyes of a tequila hangover victim the next day.) If you're not afraid of the effects of mixing beer, liquor and classic horror flicks, then your best bet for tonight is Tequila Terror Tuesdays at Bender's.

Tequila Terror screenings kick off at 11 p.m. and film selections are culled from a range of both classic and contemporary horror films. The drinking, on the other hand, begins much earlier and features $6 shots of tequila with a Tecate back.

No cover, but the drinks aren't free, so don't forget to bring cash.
