Beyond the Black Rainbow is set in 1983 at the Arboria Institute; a New Age place for tapping into latent potential of the human mind. Young psychic Elena is being held involuntarily for study by the malevolent Dr. Barry Nyle, who’s testing the limits of Elena’s abilities. It’s clear that Nyle takes more than a professional interest in Elena, as it’s also clear that Nyle is not all he appears to be. There’s something boiling to the surface in the not-so-good doctor. It’s something terrible, powerful, and somehow connected to the healing processes of this mysterious facility. When Elena manages to escape Arboria, Nyle stops denying his true self and ferociously pursues her. READ MORE

Now in limited theaters, Magnet Releasing has released the first clip to go along with the previously released official trailer for Panos Cosmatos’ incredibly trippy sci-fi mind-bender Beyond The Black Rainbow (review), which stars Michael Rogers, Eva Allan, Scott Hylands and Marilyn Norry.

“ ‘Beyond The Black Rainbow’ is a sci-fi fable set in a futuristic 1983 and centres on a young woman imprisoned in an experimental laboratory.” The film was acquired out of the Tribeca Film Festival in 2011.

Set in the strange and oppressive emotional landscape of the year 1983, Beyond The Black Rainbow is a Reagan-era fever dream inspired by hazy childhood memories of midnight movies and Saturday morning cartoons.

Fantastic Fest, Austin’s genre film festival, has been snatching headlines left and right over the past few years and judging by their initial line-up, looks like they’ll be doing it again. Beyond the Black Rainbow is my most anticipated title in their 2011 slate so far, but there’s a great mix of new and old from around the world including Japan, Belgium, Mexico, Russia, Hong Kong, Korea and the USA as well. There’s two Fulci restorations, a 3D spaghetti western, something that sounds like a Japanese remake of Love Object and a “mondo trasho flick about a yakuza with a machine gun arm and a rocket launcher leg.”

Check past the break for the first twenty films, with a lot more to be announced in the coming weeks. I’m predicting The Wicker Tree and Melancholia to be in the next batch.
