Cult Epics teams with American Genre Film Archive to bring weird movies to cinemas
For 25 years, boutique freaky film label Cult Epics has amassed a large following for distributing the most sought-after, obscure, provocative and previously unknown films to the home video market in North America. Now, Cult Epids have teamed with AGFA (American Genre Film Archives) to bless some of their signature titles – which are also some of the world’s most notorious international shocker – 35mm theatrical releases.
The first theatrical releases on 35mm are Viva La Muerte, School of the Holy Beast, Un Chant D’Amour, and In a Glass Cage, which are now distributed thru AGFA, together with DCPs of new releases such as Carl Andersen’s underground films Mondo Weirdo/Vampiros Sexos, Pim de la Parra’s Obsessions, and coming soon: Marco Ferreri’s The Flesh, Giulio Questi’s giallo Death Laid an Egg, along with Cult classics such as Angst, Death Bed: The Bed that Eats, Jorg Buttgereit’s Nekromantik, Nekromantik 2, Der Todesking, Schramm, Tinto Brass’ Paprika, and Radley Metzger’s The Lickerish Quartet, Camille 2000 and Score, among others.
Here’s the official initial theatrical playdate schedule:
IN A GLASS CAGE (35mm) Qfest (Houston), July 27
