ONYX THE FORTUITOUS AND THE TALISMAN OF SOULS * USA * 2023 * Andrew Bowser * 110 Mins *

Amateur occultist Marcus J. Trillbury, aka Onyx the Fortuitous, is struggling. He’s misunderstood at home and work, but his dreams for a new life seem to be answered when he lands a coveted invitation to the mansion of his idol Bartok the Great for a ritual to raise the spirit of an ancient demon. He excitedly joins Bartok and his fellow eclectic group of devotees as they prepare for the ceremony, but pretty quickly it becomes apparent everything is not as it seems. As Onyx and his new friends fight to keep their souls, he must decide what he’s willing to truly sacrifice in order to meet his destiny.

Based on his viral internet character of the same name, writer, director, and star Andrew Bowser takes us on a wild ride of magic and fun with just the right mix of Satanic worship and friendship. Featuring terrifying monsters and dark and silly laughs, Onyx the Fortuitous and the Talisman of Souls is a creative and joyful celebration of weirdos of all kinds.

Martha and Félix are the children of the Butcher of Mons, a notorious Belgian serial killer from the 1990s. Unstable and riddled with insecurities, Martha lives vicariously through social media. Her brother, crushed by the family legacy, takes over their father’s killings.

Harassed and violently assaulted at work, the docile Martha falls into madness and goes through the looking glass into the strange and terrifying world inhabited by her brother.

Megalomaniac questions the invisible line between victim and executioner and how it is crossed. A film about the weight of patriarchy and the illusion of Manichaeism

“Writer/Director Karim Ouelhaj crafts extreme confrontational horror that aims to offend as much as it does evoke wrath and societal reflection. It’s at once compelling and uncomfortable to watch.” – Bloody Disgusting

‘Megalomaniac’ is top-tier European arthouse feel-bad horror cinema that, paired with stunning cinematography, will thrill extreme horror fans.” – Dread Central

As warned by their new neighbors, in Irish lore the Redcaps will come when called to help souls in dire need of rescue, but it’s crucial to remember that there is always a dear price to pay for their aid.

UNWELCOME, directed by Irish-born Jon Wright (GRABBERS, ROBOT OVERLORDS) and based on an original screenplay by Mark Stay, stars Hannah John-Kamen (BLACK MIRROR, ANT-MAN AND THE WASP, READY PLAYER ONE) and Douglas Booth (LOVING VINCENT, HIT NETFLIX FILM THE DIRT, JUPITER ASCENDING, PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AND ZOMBIES).

“It’s visceral (literally) and pulse-pounding on occasion. And as we see the wee creatures making all this mayhem, it’s also laugh-out-loud funny.” – Movie Nation

“Unwelcome will work its way into your heart, one tiny stab wound at a time.” – Film Threat

“Nvotová is well versed in the language of the horror film, and some scenes echo the early work of Neil Jordan, but go much further in their hallucinatory concatenation of the forest wild and the monstrous feminine.” – Eye for Film

“A ferocious tale that manipulates familiar tropes into a personal, and culturally specific, vision.” – The Wee Review

FLESH FOR FRANKENSTEIN * Spain * 1973 * Dir: Paul Morrisey * 94 Min

Special 3d Anaglyph screening! Old-School 3D shades included with ticket cost!

A delectably gory and cynical social satire from acclaimed filmmaker Paul Morrissey (BLOOD FOR DRACULA), FLESH FOR FRANKENSTEIN is among the most original and transgressive interpretations of Mary Shelley’s classic novel. Baron von Frankenstein (Udo Kier, SUSPIRIA), with the help of his bizarre assistant Otto, is determined to create a new master race. To achieve his objective, he constructs two perfect “zombies” from an assemblage of body parts, intending them to mate. Meanwhile, complications ensue as Nicholas, a farm hand, begins an affair with the Baron’s sexually frustrated wife all while searching for his missing friend Nicholas (Joe Dallesandro, CRY BABY), whose head and brain have been used for Frankenstein’s male “zombie.” Upon its release, FLESH FOR FRANKENSTEIN became an immediate midnight and cult movie sensation. Now, the movie has been newly restored from its original negative!

“The blood splashes as noisily as an open fire hydrant.” – New York Times

“This delightfully melodramatic 3D film is a lurid camp classic. Complete with scathing class critique, gorgeous long takes, and hot Udo Kier, it’s something of a “see it to believe it” film that could never be made now.” – Horror Queers Podcast

BLOODY BRIDGET * USA * 2023 * Dir: Richard Elfman * 81 Min

Special Guests in Attendance with Live Pre-Show Experience Richard Elfman (Director) and Anastasia Elfman (Bloody Bridget) will be joining us in for a special live pre-show experience!

A music driven horror-comedy. Haitian voodoo deity transforms a burlesque dancer into a “Valentine vampire.” Blood only whets her appetite–she must eat her victim’s beating hearts. Baron Samedi drinks rum, smokes cigars and chases after mortal women. His wife, Maman Brigitte, is the red-haired Celtic goddess “Brigid” of Irish mythology, adopted in Haiti as their goddess of Death. Women seek her for protection–and justice. Bridget O’Brien is a red-haired waitress and burlesque dancer at a Van Nuys dive bar. She is exploited by her boss, her boyfriend and finally a sleazy attorney who attacks her–only to have her arrested for assault. Then comes the abusive prison matron. Finally, Bridget attempts to take her life. But Baron Samedi intervenes, thinking her the reincarnation of his disappeared wife. Bridget is empowered as a “Valentine vampire.” “What is that?” she asks. “Oh, you shall see!” says the Baron. Blood tastes good, but is not enough–she must feast on the hearts of evil-doers.

“Director Richard Elfman sends prospective audiences into the gonzo world of his latest creation. Bloody Bridget is bloody good fun!” – Film Threat

“Bloody Bridget is a film that fans of Richard Elfman’s work will absolutely love.” – Cinema Crazed

Director/Writer Richard Elfman Bio Richard was born in the Watts district of inner-city Los Angeles. When he was five his family moved to Crenshaw (‘Boyz in the Hood’), where he was exposed to diverse cultural influences, including African and Afro-Cuban percussion which led to a lifelong musical career.

Richard dropped out of college to perform and record as an Afro-Latin percussionist and he wrote/performed/directed with the San Francisco’s legendary drag theatre group, the “Cockettes.”

He moved to Paris in the early 1970s to perform musical theatre with the Grand Magic Circus, produced by Peter Brook of the Royal Shakespeare Company.” His younger brother Danny Elfman joined the troupe and created his first original music. Brook brought the troupe to London, where Richard also was a frequent music session player on Abbey Road.

ichard started the music group “Oingo Boingo,” and has directed television, seven feature films, produced 275 band and celebrity video interviews for Buzzine Media. Richard continues as a long time food and wine columnist, has three novels scheduled for publication and currently directs theatre and plays in the band, Mambo Demonico.

Richard is an acclaimed grill-master and cooks for their events as well as for his cast and crews.

Richard and his wife Anastasia create live pre-shows before screenings in selected cities. They enlist local artists to perform music and burlesque along with them. Their live pre-screening shows are very popular and whip audiences into the proper fun mood.

“Bloody Bridget” star Anastasia Elfman Bio Anastasia was raised in Laguna Beach, California, the daughter of former Marines, she grew up with classical cello and ballet juxtaposed with hardcore weekends at Marine youth camp. Anastasia continued with ballet and subsequent acting with the South Coast Repertory Company, study with the Stella Adler Academy and various comedy workshops. Anastasia has remarked wryly that the rigors of classical ballet (including performing on broken toes) was often harder than Marine camp.

Anastasia presently works as a stage and screen actress, director, dancer, choreographer and burlesque artist. She lives in the Hollywood Hills with husband Richard Elfman, whom she collaborates with on music/dance projects with their band Mambo Diabolico. They also have an upcoming slate of horror films, the first, Bloody Bridget, is presently making the festival circuit. Anastasia and Richard are also known for their underground food/wine, music, dance and performance salon, “The Barbecue Bacchanals.”

AUNTIE LEE’S MEAT PIES * USA * 1992 * Dir: Joseph F Robertson * 100 Min

Taking a simple premise and turning it into an increasingly bloody and hallucinogenic nightmare, Joseph F. Robertson’s (THE CRAWLING HAND) AUNTIE LEE’S MEAT PIES heaps on gruesome kills with a healthy side of pitch black humor. Graced with a cast as strange as the film itself, among them Pat Morita (THE KARATE KID), Michael Berryman (THE HILLS HAVE EYES), and Karen Black (TRILOGY OF TERROR, HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES) as Auntie Lee, this would-be midnight movie has been newly restored in 4K from its 35mm original camera negative.

“AUNTIE LEE’S MEAT PIES is a grab bag of our favorite Trash Cinema elements lovingly and cheaply assembled for our consumption. It’s tasty, greasy, guilty pleasure well worth sinking your teeth into. This puppy seems like the perfect flick to watch…’ – Trash Cinema Collective

“Utterly ridiculous but undeniably fun, AUNTIE LEE’S MEAT PIES is a tasty dish from the 90s that is just as good reheated.” – Morbidly Beautiful

IRATI * Spain * 2022 * Dir: Paul Urkijo Alijo * 111 Min

Charlemagne’s army is devastating the Pyrenees. In an attempt to challenge this onslaught, the highlander leader of the valley asks for help from the ancestral gods of his lands, whose disappearance, brought about by the arrival of Christianity, is imminent. After swearing a blood oath, he manages to defeat the enemy in exchange for his life. But before his death, he makes his son, Eneko, promise that he will be a good leader for the valley.

Years later and now a grown man of Christian faith, Eneko is preparing to fulfill his promise when, in strange circumstances, his father’s buried body and the treasure captured from the Franks disappears, casting serious doubts on his lineage. If Eneko is to fulfill his destiny, he will have to recover them and so he enlists the help of a young, local, pagan woman called Irati. The two of them will have to journey deep into a strange and inhospitable forest, where everything that has a name exists.

“We don’t get enough films like Irati, ones that keep the story grounded to a place and time that is unique and real, a place we can understand from our own corner of the world, while still swept up in the amazing sights, monsters, gods, and legends it brings us.” – Screen Anarchy

“A thrilling adventure, a deeply strange and distinctive fairy tale, and the kind of love story that would have J.R.R. Tolkien’s quill all aquiver, it’s thoroughly magical.” – The Wee Review

ABRUPTIO * USA * 2022 * Dir: Evan Marlowe * 94 min

ABRUPTIO is a feature film starring James Marsters (BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER), Robert Englund (A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET), Jordan Peele (GET OUT, NOPE), Hana Mae Lee (Pitch Perfect), Chris McDonald (HACKS) and Sid Haig (THE DEVIL’S REJECTS).

The entire movie is performed by lifelike puppets and produced as a surrealistic thriller/horror. It is a first of its kind production.

Les Hackel (Marsters) is a guy down on his luck who wakes to find an explosive device has been implanted in his neck. He must carry out heinous crimes in order to stay alive while trying to identify the mastermind manipulating the now twisted and strange world around him.

“A trippy, gory puppet horror masterpiece” – 1428 Elm

“Nothing in this movie comes close to being normal.” – Dread Central

Two young women find themselves at an abandoned camp in the woods with a book of magical spells surrounded by classic monsters in this comedic send up of ’80s horror films.

“Shaky Shivers starts oddball and spirals further down in a boisterous, ridiculous, wonderful film held together by an unbreakable friendship.” – DarkSkyLady Reviews

“Sung Kang ditches the fast and furious lifestyle for his directorial debut Shaky Shivers — a delightful gateway horror treat that recalls the Goosebumps television show or Are You Afraid of the Dark.” – Daily Dead

THE ELDERLY * Spain * 2022 * Dir: Raul Cerezo & Fernando Gonzalez Gomez * 96 Min

Rosa commits suicide, which is the catalyst for the progressive physical and mental deterioration of Manuel, her elderly husband. Mario, his son, decides to bring him to live with his family, despite the fierce opposition of his new wife, who’s expecting a baby.

Naia, his teenage granddaughter, is the only one who trusts Manuel, whose dementia is getting worse and worse by the day. The family’s new living situation will continue to go rapidly downhill, until it literally becomes a matter of life and death, leading to a dramatic denouement, which will take place on the hottest night of the century.

“The Elderly (Viejos), the second feature film from Raúl Cerezo and Fernando González Gómez, the duo of Spanish directors who brought us the goopy sci-fi horror flick The Passenger (La pasajera) last year, is a mysteriously wicked horror that starts off as a tale of supernatural residency and influence on our grandparents. Hold on though, because Cerezo and Gómez have more in store for you – truly unexpected things” – Screen Anarchy

“… it’s slow-burn at first, as we get to know the characters. However, I can assure you that the final minutes are all kinds of craziness, […] the ending of The Elderly is just very intense” – Heaven of Horror

Werckmeister Harmonies * HUNGARY * 2000 (2023 Restoration) * Dir: Béla Tarr and Ágnes Hranitzky * 145 Mins * Current Rotten Tomatoes score: 98%

One of the major achievements of twenty-first-century cinema thus far, Béla Tarr’s mesmeric parable of societal collapse is an enigma of transcendent visual, philosophical, and mystical resonance. Adapted from a novel by the celebrated writer and frequent Tarr collaborator László Krasznahorkai, Werckmeister Harmonies unfolds in an unknown era in an unnamed village, where, one day, a mysterious circus—complete with an enormous stuffed whale and a shadowy, demagogue-like figure known as the Prince—arrives and appears to awaken a kind of madness in the citizens, which builds inexorably toward violence and destruction. In thirty-nine of his signature long takes, engraved in ghostly black and white, Tarr conjures an apocalyptic vision of dreamlike dread and fathomless beauty.
