Christina Hornisher’s only feature, HOLLYWOOD 90028, features Mark, a young photographer, who travels to Hollywood hoping to make it as a cameraman in the movie business. Unfortunately, the only jobs he can find are shooting porn “loops” for a sleazy producer. Depressed and increasingly delusional, he begins to take out his frustrations on pretty young women he meets–by strangling them.
HOLLYWOOD 90028 received limited release as an exploitation film after it was completed in 1973 and was later re-distributed under the titles THE HOLLYWOOD HILLSIDE STRANGLER, TWISTED THROATS, and INSANITY. This screening is the New York Premiere of the new 4K restoration from Grindhouse Releasing.
