THE BUNDLE
Director: Phillip Christon Scary things come in small packages in Phillip Christon's comic thriller. A terrified prisoner (Lisa Dalton) is trapped in a dank dungeon when a small bundle is placed in her cell. To her horror, the bundle begins to slither its way closer and closer to her as the candlelight in the cell grows dimmer. The terror reaches a fever pitch when she dares to see what lurks inside The Bundle.
MIMI
Director, Screenwriter, Editor: Lucile Hadzihalilozic One night, Mimi (Sandra Sammartino) finds herself a helpless witness to her mother's suicide attempt. The next day, while her mom convalesces in the hospital, aunt Solange (Denise Schropfer) takes Mimi to her housing project apartment in the Paris suburbs. To avoid disturbing the implicit order of her home, Solange sets Mimi up in a nook near the door. On the very first night, Mimi's sleep is troubled by the arrival of Jean-Pierre (Michel Trillot), her aunt's lover. "A rancid slice of life riddled with black humor, as opposed to a conventional narrative work. Director Lucile Hadzihalilovic's sense of observation is as keen as it is creepy." (Variety)
SHANGRI-LA
Director: Starling Price Private I, Lou Duffy (Ken Hudson Campbell) has a unique phobia-a fear of funeral homes. When an all-night stakeout puts him near the "Shangri-La" funeral home, Lou's imagination runs wild. It doesn't help that bizarre things are going on around the creepy parlor. But that is no match for what Lou finds inside the "Shangri-La". Starling Price's 35mm debut is a sly black comedy that proves death is not a joking matter. Or is it? |
