Brand new restorations of the Father of Slovak Animation from Arbelos Films!

Lady Elisabeth Báthory lives a charmed life in a resplendent Romanesque castle, surrounded by Disney-esque wildlife and a colorful cast of obliging servants. Taking ill one day while traveling through the forest, she’s nursed back to health by a handsome woodsman, and in gratitude gifts him with her own heart. But upon returning home, Lady Báthory’s sunny disposition quickly turns murderous and vampiric once she discovers the secret to heart-less eternal youth lies in draining the blood of young men and women.

Widely considered the crown jewel of Slovak animation, The Bloody Lady is an improbable and bewitching fusion of gothic horror and classic children’s animation, retelling the infamous Čachtická castle and Báthory folk tale that’s often cited as the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Recently treated to a haunting live score by celebrated musician claire rousay, this underseen gem is a new cult classic in the making.

Uncropped rediscovers the work of James Hamilton, one of the great chroniclers of the cultural history of America. For over four decades working as a staff photographer at publications such as Harper’s Bazaar, The New York Observer and, most notably, The Village Voice, Hamilton captured some of the most remarkable people and stories of the last half century.

A New York legend himself, Hamilton created iconic images of musicians like Charles Mingus, Patti Smith and Lou Reed, took intimate portraits of everyone from Liza Minnelli to Alfred Hitchcock, broke off to do set photography for George Romero, Noah Baumbach and Wes Anderson, and pursued powerful and controversial assignments across the U.S. and the world. All the while he never stopped amassing a stunning visual chronicle of his beloved New York City in all its grit and glory.

In particular, Uncropped explores the unique position The Village Voice held in New York life, and the way in which Hamilton’s remarkable body of work exemplified the paper’s provocative merging of art and journalism. His story and vast archive offer a singular window into the heyday of alternative print media.

Directed by D.W. Young (The Booksellers) and executive produced by Wes Anderson.

Warning: Images are not from the movies we’re showing. Trust us, you can’t imagine what we’re showing!

Fast, cheap and out of control, this flick comes from a hardworking stuntman and action choreographer who spent his career taking falls for a paycheck in movies like Viagara Madness and Sex From Beyond the Grave. But occasionally he’d round up all the stunt actors he knew to make a trashy low budget action flick and the movie we’re screening today might be his greatest accomplishment. With some of Hong Kong’s most badass female fighters, five different action directors, and a rogue’s gallery of Hong Kong character actors, it’s the motion picture equivalent of a getting blasted on a six-pack of Budweiser in your the back of your truck.

Starring: Nicole Kidman, Harris Dickinson, Antonio Banderas, Sophie Wilde, Esther McGregor, Vaughan Reilly
