A FISTFUL OF DOLLARS (1964) dir Sergio Leone w/Clint Eastwood, Marianne Koch, Gian Maria Volonte, Wolfgang Lukschy, Sieghardt Rupp [99 min; 35mm]

PERDITA DURANGO (1997) dir Alex de la Iglesia w/Javier Bardem, Rosie Perez, Harley Cross, Aimee Graham, James Gandolfini, Screamin’ Jay Hawkins, Demián Bichir [121 min; 35mm]
This insanely over-the-top thriller is packed to the brim with nasty women and bad hombres. Bardem and Perez play a pair of psychotic criminals who kidnap a young couple with the intention of sacrificing them in an occult ritual but a series of absurd and horrifying obstacles complicate matters. Not for the faint of heart or easily offended.

A briefcase of stolen drug money causes a whole mess of trouble (when does it not) for a bunch of colorful characters in the Coen Brothers sensational adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s novel.

MULTIPLE MANIACS (1970) dir John Waters w/Divine, David Lochary, Mary Vivian Pearce, Mink Stole, Edith Massey, Cookie Mueller [96 min; DCP]
Replete with all manner of depravity, from robbery to murder to one of cinema’s most memorably blasphemous moments, MULTIPLE MANIACS features the Cavalcade of Perversion, a traveling show put on by a troupe of misfits whose shocking proclivities are topped only by those of their leader: the glammer-than-glam, larger-than-life Divine.
