Special Saturday Art-a-Whirl Screening - Time TBA
Looks like we are going to show a collection of experimental horror short films for the art-a-whirl screening. I hope to do this outside in the parking lot on Saturday night. Meeting with the building on Thursday about it. The other films I was considering were not getting back to me about us using them.
Here is a link synopsis of the show. I got permission from the distributor today.
As if by some irresistible compulsion to witness the mortification of the flesh, EXPERIMENTS IN TERROR perversely unearths a celluloid sarcophagus of horrible, horrible beauty...
a phantasmagoria of the uncanny, the dreadful, and the macabre...
a pathological delirium of witchcraft, phantoms, and the undead. Using visionary cinematography and a masterful montage of rare film artifacts, these amoral auteurs probe every dark corner of the human psyche, with morbid curiousity and in lurid detail! This shocking program explodes the genre of the horror film, profoundly expanding the cinematic language of fear.
