💋 ANTIPORNO (2016) screens this Friday, October 16 at 7pm

A lurid erotic drama that spirals into something far stranger, ANTIPORNO traps a celebrated artist inside a garish theatrical nightmare where abuse, humiliation, and performance blur into one another. Part of Nikkatsu’s Roman P***o Reboot Project, Sion Sono’s audacious provocation weaponizes artificiality to tear apart the power dynamics of exploitation, authorship, gender, and the cinematic gaze.

Sweet Void is taking over FACETS for Halloween weekend with MANIAC (1980) on Friday, October 30.

William Lustig’s grimy New York nightmare follows Joe Spinell’s Frank Zito, a deeply disturbed loner stalking the city after dark and leaving a trail of blood and violence behind him. Featuring some of the most infamous practical gore of the early ’80s courtesy of Tom Savini, MANIAC is sleazy, nasty, and relentlessly unsettling. 🎟🔗🔝

PIERROT LUNAIRE (2014) 🌙

Bruce LaBruce gives Arnold Schoenberg’s landmark atonal melodrama a radical q***rcore and transgender twist. A transmasc protagonist falls for a woman, but when her skeptical father questions his masculinity, he concocts an increasingly elaborate scheme to prove himself.

Two of the most lurid, outrageous, and utterly singular films of the 21st century collide at COLD SWEAT on Friday, October 16.

💥 ANTIPORNO (2016) + WWW.RACHELORMONT.COM (2024) 💥

Both begin with a woman trapped in a single space - but what unfolds goes far beyond anything you could anticipate. ANTIPORNO turns its lurid erotic setup into a garish, vicious meta-commentary on exploitation, gender, authorship, and the machinery of looking.

WWW.RACHELORMONT.COM transforms celebrity, politics, performance, and identity into a psychedelic satire and strange time capsule of an internet culture already beginning to consume itself.

$14 single ticket | $20 double feature

THE RASPBERRY REICH (2004)

Bruce LaBruce’s “terrorist chic” provocateur follows a q***r terrorist group attempting to continue the work of the Red Army Faction after they kidnap the son of a wealthy industrialist. As their revolutionary project unfolds, the strains of their increasingly cultish group begin to show.

See it Saturday, October 10 at 7 PM, followed by a Q&A with Bruce LaBruce and actress Susanne Sachsse, moderated by filmmaker Henry Hanson (). Part of THE REVOLUTION IS MY BOYFRIEND programmed by . Tickets + series passes 🔗🔝
