The Night of the Hunter — Thursday Film Series
Advertisement
It’s a hard world for little things with Thursday Film Series committee member Sam's choice, 'The Night of the Hunter'.🐎
In Depression-era West Virginia, a serial-killing preacher hunts two young children who know the whereabouts of a stash of money.💸
"At its heart, the film is a children's fairytale – strange and idiosyncratic – but also a noir thriller, laced with the darkest elements of both genres: death, guilt, greed, poverty, cruelty, biblical references and a terrifying pursuit by the scariest of bogeymen. Laughton described it as "a nightmarish sort of Mother Goose tale"." THE GUARDIAN
This series was fished out of the members favourite movies, each film chosen by and representing a member of the Committee. There’s no overarching theme just films wrangled from the depths of our individual tastes.🎣
📆 Showtime:
Thursday, October 15 @ 7:00 PM
