First up is DAVID CRONENBERGS - 'SHIVERS'! Catch a rare screening of David Cronenbergs (The Fly, Naked Lunch, Videodrome) feature length debut.

Next up we have FRANK HENENLOTTERS 'BRAIN DAMAGE'! An absolute mind-trip of a film from the director of BASKET CASE and FRANKENHOOKER. When a young man called Brian discovers a talking parasite that has the ability to induce psychedelic episodes when the creature latches on to his brain stem....so begins a journey into madness and addiction with hideous consequences. This cult classic comedy/horror often gets overlooked by Henenlotters more famous work, but this is an absolute gem that has to be seen to be believed!
