back with Anna Biller’s THE LOVE WITCH (2016) and Ty West’s THE HOUSE OF THE
DEVIL (2009), both on 35mm!
THE LOVE WITCH (2016)
With
a visual style that pays tribute to Technicolor thrillers of the ‘60s, THE LOVE
WITCH explores female fantasy and the repercussions of pathological narcissism.
Elaine,
a beautiful young witch, is determined to find a man to love her. In her gothic
Victorian apartment she makes spells and potions, and then picks up men and
seduces them. However, her spells work too well, leaving her with a string of
hapless victims. When she finally meets the man of her dreams, her desperation
to be loved will drive her to the brink of insanity and murder. (US, 2016, 120
mins, R, Dir. Anna Biller, 35mm)
THE HOUSE OF THE DEVIL (2009)
Cult icons Tom Noonan, Mary Woronov and Dee Wallace - co-star in
the acclaimed demonic thriller that fans and critics hail as an unnerving
return to late ‘70s / early ‘80s classic horror.
Desperate for quick cash, college sophomore Samantha Hughes takes
a babysitting job in the isolated mansion of the creepy Ulman family. Ignoring
the warnings from her Best Friend, Samantha has no idea that a nightmare of
unspeakable fear and torment awaits her within these walls. At midnight, in the
shadow of a full lunar eclipse, the ultimate evil will be unleashed. (US, 2009,
95 mins, R, Dir. Ti West, 35mm)
