Los Angeles: See Carpenter’s ‘Madness’ On The Big Screen!
Back in 2009, the New Beverly in Los Angeles hosted a great double feature of John Carpenter’s The Thing and Prince Of Darkness, which make up 2/3s of Carpenter’s unofficial “Apocalypse Trilogy”. And now, our own BC will host a screening of the “final chapter”, as he presents In The Mouth Of Madness, this Saturday (April 16th) at 11:59 PM.
And since he’s a stickler for tradition, he will be bringing back producer Sandy King (who offered a terrific Q&A for Thing/Prince) for a chat before the film – and if you were there, you know she makes for a hilarious (read: candid!) guest. BC will also have some DVDs to give away and show some fun trailers. All this for a mere 7 bucks, cash at the door or online at Brown Paper Tickets. The New Bev is located at 7165 Beverly Blvd in Los Angeles, CA, 90036, 1.5 blocks west of La Brea, and street parking is widely available (Formosa Ave is your best bet). See you there!
“With the disappearance of hack horror writer Sutter Cane, all Hell is breaking loose…literally! Author Cane, it seems, has a knack for description that really brings his evil creepy-crawlies to life. Insurance investigator John Trent is sent to investigate Cane’s mysterious vanishing act and ends up in the sleepy little East Coast town of Hobb’s End. The fact that this town exists as a figment of Cane’s twisted imagination is only the beginning of Trent’s problems….”
In addition to Leigh Whannell’s upcoming Universal Monsters movie Wolf Man, Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel) has also joined the cast of Weapons, THR has announced tonight.
Weapons is the new horror movie from New Line Cinema and director Zach Cregger (Barbarian), with Julia Garner joining the previously announced Josh Brolin (Dune 2).
The upcoming Weapons is from writer/director Zach Cregger, who will also produce alongside his Barbarian producing team: Roy Lee of Vertigo and J.D. Lifshitz and Raphael Margules of BoulderLight Pictures. Vertigo’s Miri Yoon also produces.
The Hollywood Reporter teases, “Plot details for Weapons are being kept holstered but it is described as a multi and inter-related story horror epic that tonally is in the vein of Magnolia, the 1999 actor-crammed showcase from filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson.”
Cregger was a founding member and writer for the New York comedy troupe “The Whitest Kids U’Know,” which he started while attending The School of Visual Arts. The award-winning group’s self-titled sketch comedy show ran for five seasons on IFC-TV and Fuse. He was also a series regular on Jimmy Fallon’s NBC series “Guys with Kids” and the TBS hit series “Wrecked,” and was featured in a recurring role on the NBC series “About a Boy.”
Weapons will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures.
