ππππππ returns with a bang in July with special guest filmmaker and champion of grindhouse cinema William Lustig in attendance!
ππππππ (1980) was Lustigβs breakout shocker that took unprepared movie goers by force. Acclaimed character actor Joe Spinell dives headfirst into his role as Frank Zito, a tormented loner who is compelled to stalk (and scalp) women through the streets, motels and subways of New York City in a desperate attempt to quiet the voices in his troubled mind. Outrageously promoted and vehemently protested, ππππππ is now regarded as one of the most disturbing psychological horror films of its time. Showcasing practical effects by Tom Savini, this is shot-on-location guerrilla filmmaking at its unhinged best.
πππππππππ (1982) is Lustigβs wildly entertaining π±π°ππͺπ»πͺπ°π΅π΅π¦π΄π€π©πͺ homage set in a crime-ridden Big Apple and starring a cast of charismatic luminaries including Fred Williamson, Joe Spinell and Robert Forster, who form a clandestine crime-fighting unit and take on a vicious street gang that is terrorizing the neighborhood. Brilliantly scored by Jay Chattaway and the Afro-Cuban Fania All-Stars, πππππππππ is the ass kicking celluloid equivalent of a three night bender at Studio 54. Without the side effects and nasty hangover.
ππππ πππβπ ππππππ ππππππ ππππππ π ππππππ is an ongoing series that pairs directors with two of their favorite feature films with the intention of delving deeper into the craft of movie making. William Lustig will join Dennis Dread on stage before and between films to discuss his 50 year career.
