Antonio Lopez 1970: Sex Fashion & Disco
October 28, 2018
Documentary / 2018 / 95 minutes
Sex Fashion & Disco is a feature documentary-based time capsule concerning Paris and New York between 1969 and 1973 and viewed through the eyes of Antonio Lopez (1943-1987), the dominant fashion illustrator of the time, and told through the lives of his colorful and sometimes outrageous milieu. A native of Puerto Rico and raised in The Bronx, Antonio was a seductive arbiter of style and glamour who, beginning in the 1960s, brought elements of the urban street and ethnicity to bear on a postwar fashion world desperate for change and diversity. Counted among Antonio’s discoveries—muses of the period—were unusual beauties such as Cathee Dahmen, Grace Jones, Pat Cleveland, Tina Chow, Jessica Lange, Jerry Hall and Warhol Superstars Donna Jordan, Jane Forth and Patti D’Arbanville among others. Antonio’s inner circle in New York during this period was also comprised of his personal and creative partner, Juan Ramos (1942-1995), also Puerto Rican-born and raised in Harlem, makeup artist Corey Tippin and photographer Bill Cunningham among others.

Drama / 2018 / 111 minutes
THE LITTLE STRANGER tells the story of Dr Faraday, the son of a housemaid, who has built a life of quiet respectability as a country doctor.

But it is now in decline and its inhabitants - mother, son and daughter - are haunted by something more ominous than a dying way of life. When he takes on his new patient, Faraday has no idea how closely, and how terrifyingly, the family's story is about to become entwined with his own.

Bloody Moon
October 28, 2018
Horror / 1981 / 84 minutes
Never one to be outdone, Jess Franco’s foray into the early 80s slasher cycle, Bloody Moon, is everything you could hope for from the gonzo Euroshock director. Riffing on the basic premise established in John Carpenter’s Halloween, Franco’s take involves a disfigured psychotic, who, after being institutionalized for stabbing a young woman with a pair of scissors, is released years later into the care of his mentally unstable sister who just so happens to run a boarding school for girls, a situation that leads to a slew of gruesome, gory murders. Easily besting the crude attempts of his American peers in terms of style and panache, Franco serves up the bodies with enough graphic violence and gratuitous nudity to land Bloody Moon on Great Britain’s infamous “Video Nasties” list of banned films, which makes this a must-see for fans of hard-to-find horror titles. .
