Upcoming Films in this Series
GINGER SNAPS
(2000, DCP, 108m) dir John Fawcett w/Emily Perkins, Katharine Isabelle, Kris Lemche. Ginger (Isabelle) and her sister Brigitte (Perkins) are goth outcasts, and best friends, in suburbia. When a werewolf bites Ginger, things begin changing. This coming-of-age tale works both as a gory horror flick and as an allegory about the complications of adolescence. Read more at Perisphere. FRI 7:00 SAT 9:15 SUN 3:00
JENNIFER’S BODY
(2009, DCP, 102m) dir Karyn Kusama w/Megan Fox, Amanda Seyfried, Adam Brody. When a city band comes to a small-town bar in Devil’s Kettle, Jennifer (Fox) and Needy (Seyfried) go see them. Unfortunately, the band is made up of creeps who try to sacrifice Jennifer. Initially written off as a poor follow-up film for Juno screenwriter Diablo Cody, Jennifer has since become a kind of cult classic. Read more at Perisphere. FRI 9:15 SAT 7:00 SUN 5:15
HORRORTHON V: SON OF HORRORTHON *SOLD OUT!*
(35mm/16mm/DCP, All. Damn. Night.) You can thank a global pandemic (you may have heard about it) for the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to endure two Horrorthons in a single year. This time, celebrating our fifth year of collaboration with the Cult Film Collective, we bring you a thoughtfully curated selection of horror movie sequels. (Fans of Leprechaun 4: In Space, rejoice!) (Not really) Those who stay to the bitter end will receive a limited-edition button and screenprinted poster designed by the freaks…
THE STORY OF A THREE-DAY PASS
(1968, DCP, 87m) dir Melvin Van Peebles w/Harry Baird, Nicole Berger. Turner (Baird) is a black American soldier stationed in France under the command of a bigot. He receives a three-day leave and finds romance with a white woman (Berger). Bearing reflections of the French New Wave and glimmers of the subversive elements in Van Peeble’s later work, Three-Day Pass is a gem finally uncovered. SAT 7:00 9:00 SUN 3:00
HAUSU
(1977, 35mm, 88m, Japanese w/English subtitles) dir Nobuhiko Ôbayashi w/Kimiko Ikegami, Miki Jinbo, Kumiko Ohba. This cult masterpiece, comprised of bizarre set pieces, subtle humor, and surreal deaths, still feels fresh today, four decades after it was made. Come join us for this Trylon Halloween tradition—for the first or the 21st time. FRI/SAT 7:00 9:00 SUN 3:00 5:00
THE SHOP AROUND THE CORNER
(1940, DCP, 99m) dir Ernst Lubitsch w/Margaret Sullavan, James Stewart, Frank Morgan. At a high-end Budapest department store, sales clerks Alfred (Stewart) and Klara (Sullavan) are both falling for their anonymous pen pals while struggling to work together. With this Christmas classic, Lubitsch created an enduring blueprint for romcoms to follow. SAT 3:00 5:15 7:30 SUN 3:00 5:15

CLAUDINE
(1974, DCP, 92m) dir John Berry w/Diahann Caroll, James Earl Jones, Lawrence Hilton-Jacob. This heart-and-soul comedy follows Harlem natives Claudine (Carol) and Rupert (“Roop”) (Jones) as their fledgling romance is imperiled by her six kids and the welfare officer who badgers them constantly. One of the little-seen gems of the 1970s. FRI/SAT 7:00 9:00 SUN 3:00 5:00 7:00 MON/TUE 7:00

HORRORTHON ’20
(35mm/16mm/DCP, All. Damn. Night.) For the past three years, the Trylon has gone all night long with the Cult Film Collective to bring you programs of rare horror-film prints and new restorations. We’re coming to get you again, in 16mm and 35mm! Those who stay to the bitter end will receive a limited-edition button and screenprinted poster designed by the freaks behind Tape Freaks. Promotional support is provided by Trash Film Debauchery. 7:00, $50.

LADY TERMINATOR
(1989, 35mm, 82m) dir H. Tjut Djalil w/Barbara Anne Constable, Christopher J. Hart, Claudia Angelique Rademaker. This wildly violent Indonesian exploitation flick is the black-magic story of the lustful Queen of the South Sea, who overtakes the body of a female anthropology student. With mashup scenes liberally stolen from James Cameron’s The Terminator, it must be seen to be believed. These screenings are presented in partnership with the Cult Film Collective. FRI/SAT 7:00 8:45 SUN 3:00 4:45 6:30 MON/TUE 7:00

THE FANTASTIC MR. FOX
(2009, HD, 87m) dir. Wes Anderson w/George Clooney, Meryl Streep, Bill Murray. Mr. Fox (Clooney) cannot stop himself from stealing from the hen-houses of three demented farmers. Director Anderson's take on the beloved Roald Dahl book is a charming, whimsical and funny stop-motion animated film that is delightful on its own merits. A collaboration with Moon Palace Books and Geek Love Pizza, the movie starts at dusk. Bring a chair, it's been a dusty Summer! FREE
