Thu, Sep 19 @ 8:30 pm: Followed by a Q&A with director John McNaughton

Director: John McNaughton Run Time: 108 min. Format: 35mm Rating: R Release Year: 1998

Starring: Neve Campbell, Denise Richards, Kevin Bacon, Matt Dillon, Bill Murray, Theresa Russell

When wealthy high school student Kelly Van Ryan (Denise Richards) accuses guidance counselor Sam Lombardo (Matt Dillon) of rape, she is backed up by outsider Suzie Toller (Neve Campbell). Though the two are basically enemies, they share similar stories of what Sam did to them, but when put on the stand, their stories begin to break down, and Detective Ray Duquette (Kevin Bacon) suspects all three of them were scamming to get a payout from Kelly’s mother Sandra (Theresa Russell).

Arriving at the end of a decade where erotic thrillers flourished, Wild Things is an exercise in class politics with whiplash inducing twists and enough trashiness for maximum entertainment.
