SUMMARY:Spooktacular Film Fest: The Witches
DESCRIPTION:Get a jump start on Halloween with this family friendly spooky flick about a coven of kiddo-hating witches! From the bizarre mind of Roald Dahl and the inventive helming of Nicolas Roeg\, it’s the 1990 The Witches (the only one that will suffice). Some material may be too scary for littles. Rated PG.

SUMMARY:Spooktacular Film Fest: The Haunting
DESCRIPTION:One of the greatest ghost movies ever made\, 1963’s The Haunting (based on Shirley Jackson’s novel The Haunting of Hill House) is a masterclass of unease and ratcheting suspense. Paranormal researchers and specially selected psychics converge on Hill House\, a bad place like none other. While the film features little in the way of onscreen violence\, it is emotionally intense\, suitable for mature 12-year-olds and up. A bona fide chiller and a film of immense artistry. Rated G.

SUMMARY:Exhibitionists Book Club: Poor Things Screening
DESCRIPTION:It’s a Spooktacular Film Fest & Exhibitionists Book Club crossover event as we screen last year’s Poor Things in anticipation of our discussion of the novel the movie is based on. Directed by Greek filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos (Dogtooth\, The Favourite\, The Lobster) and featuring an all-in\, Oscar-winning performance from Emma Stone\, Poor Things is\, depending on whom you ask\, either an artsploitation movie provocation or a daring work of radical feminism (or both?).  No matter what\, it’s stylish and original! The perfect cinematic experience to set the stage for our discussion of the novel and the New England Now gallery expedition.

SUMMARY:Spooktacular Film Fest: Bride of Frankenstein
DESCRIPTION:It’s the season of ghouls and ghosts\, when the viscous membrane between worlds gets really thin! To get us in the autumnal mood\, we’re screening major works of spooky cinema all month. For our first film we’re traveling back to 1935 for James Whale’s Bride of Frankenstein\, a film that upped the tongue-in-cheek ante of the original to become (arguably) the first horror-comedy. Its TV-PG rating makes it suitable for ages 7 and up\, but sensitive kiddos should be forewarned of the moody monstrous elements. Starring Boris Karloff\, Colin Clive\, and Elsa Lanchester as the eponymous bride. A real treat for all Halloween lovers!

SUMMARY:Queer Excellence in Cinema: But I'm a Cheerleader
DESCRIPTION:This pride month we’re popping fresh corn and screening films by queer artists. First up\, Jamie Babbit’s But I’m a Cheerleader\, the campy sleeper hit of 1999\, whose cult appeal has only grown overtime. Made from a femme lesbian perspective\, deeply satirizing the church\, and featuring an all-star cast of character acotrs including RuPaul\, Mink Stole\, Bud Cort and Natasha Lyonne in an early lead role. This gay-teens-find-love-in-conversion-therapy is subversive comedy gold!

SUMMARY:Great Films Directed by Women: Barbie
DESCRIPTION:Are you KENough for the final film in our Great Motion Pictures Directed by Women series? Greta Gerwig’s Barbie (2023) was many things: an absurdist phantasmagoria\, a cultural moment\, a Mattel-tie-in popular-toy picture\, and (perhaps most surprising of all) a truly righteous hail mary of feminist discourse! Perfectly cast\, impeccably designed\, whip-smart and arrestingly hilarious. Come to be seen\, stay for Ryan Gosling’s horse fetish. Dress in pink – there will be a photo booth! Run time: 114 min.

SUMMARY:Essentials of Black Cinema Screening: Get Out
DESCRIPTION:Last\, but certainly not least\, is Jordan Peele’s masterful creepfest Get Out from 2017. Super genre literate\, smart and conscious\, darn-near formally perfect\, and a true roller coaster ride; this film will make you laugh\, shriek\, squirm\, and think! Not all is as it seems when Chris visits his white girlfriend’s family in Upstate New York. Imagine an amalgam of Stepford Wives\, Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner\, and Evil Dead 2. A true film-lover’s film and perhaps the perfect note to end our series on. Runtime 103 minutes.

SUMMARY:Sweetheart Cupcake & Pheromone Party with Moonstruck
DESCRIPTION:Calling all singles! Find love via science and gather for cupcakes and romantic comedy! Based on 2010’s match-making events of artist Judith Prays\, we ask that those seeking arrive with a t-shirt that they’ve slept in for three nights Ziploc-bagged. Upon sniffing\, participants can take their photo with any olfactory pleasing garment bags. Next\, the pictures will be projected in a slide show and bada-bing\, bada-boom\, a match is made! We will all then enjoy the frosted treats and the Cher and Nic Cage meet-cute film Moonstruck.
