25th ANNIVERSARY – 35MM SCREENING!After his wife, Alice, tells him about her sexual fantasies, William Harford sets out for a night of sexual adventure. After several less than successful encounters, he meets an old friend, Nick Nightingale – now a musician – who tells him of strange sex parties when he is required to play the piano blindfolded. All the men at the party are costumed and wear masks while the women are all young and beautiful. Harford manages to find an appropriate costume and heads out to the party. Once there, however, he is warned by someone who recognizes him, despite the mask, that he is in great danger. He manages to extricate himself but the threats prove to be quite real and sinister.
A Part of Our Mini-Series THE DUMP HIM DOUBLE, two films about a couple of guys being absolute menaces to society and those with whom they share intimacy! We'll be following it up with a 35mm screening of Neil Jordan’s gothic-horror melodrama, INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (1994), on Wednesday, 10/9, at 7 PM!
“This is a sexual horror story, and the moral and dramatic creepiness pulsate in every pregnant pause between characters, every flat utterance from their lips, every hypnotic moment of this film.” —Desson Howe, Washington Post (Jul 16, 1999)
