Wednesday | October 18th, 2006 | 10:31 pm | Posted by admin | No Comments
ONE WEEK ONLY! : FRIDAY, OCT. 27 – THURSDAY, NOV. 12 The Facets Cinematheque in Chicago will be showing “Calvaire (The Ordeal)” for one week only. The Facets Theater in Chicago specializes in showcasing independent, foreign and art house films. Dont miss this opprotunity to check out this brutal film that blends experimentalism and blood drenched horror. Check out the synopsis and links below: Calvaire is a blunt shocker that has sparked comparisons to the holy triptych of “survival” horror films: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Straw Dogs, and Deliverance. Marc Stevens (Laurent Lucas) is a small-time singer on his way to a Christmas engagement when his van breaks down in the forest. He is forced to find a run-down inn where he can stay the night. Mr. Bartel, the innkeeper, promises to call a mechanic, but in his eyes, the lost crooner is a surrogate for his wife, who left him years earlier, and Marc becomes his helpless captive. Calvaire fits into a curious place between art-house experimentalism and blood-drenched horror, with an undercurrent of grim comedy. Be warned: the film does feature some brutal imagery. Directed by Fabrice du Welz, Belgium/France/Luxembourg, 2004, 90 mins. Fri.-Sun., Oct. 27-29 at 7 & 9 pm Tickets are $9.00, $5.00 for members For more info:
