GRINDHOUSE TRAILER SPECTACULAR!

(1970s and 1980s, 35mm, 70m) Film collector Dan Halsted presents a 35mm showcase of the strange, low-budget world of weird voiceovers, bizarre one-liners, and oddball gimmicks that promoters used to sell movies in the oversaturated markets of the 1970s and 1980s. These trailers include some of the weirdest two-minute roller-coaster rides of Italian horror, blaxploitation, […]

16MM LOST & INACCESSIBLE SHOW

(16mm, 110m) Throughout the last century, numerous films have been lost (whether due to negligence and/or intended destruction), never to be seen again. Other films, like the one in this show, were dubiously funded, never got picked up by a major distributor and have since been mostly forgotten. Now completely out of print in every […]

16MM SCIENCE FICTION ODYSSEY

(16mm, 100m) This rarely screened, mostly misunderstood, existential science fiction film is a forerunner of what sci-fi action films nowadays try to emulate. It appears there are about a dozen 16mm prints of this film squirreled away by collectors across the country – but when the Trylon attempted to rent these prints, we were told […]

SUPER FLY

(1972, 35mm, 91m) dir Gordon Parks w/Ron O’Neal, Sheila Frazier, Julius Harris. Immortalized by Curtis Mayfield’s sizzling score, Super Fly tells the story of Priest (O’Neal), a cocaine pusher-man who hopes to pull off one last major deal before retiring.
