| A SAMUEL FULLER CONCOCTION |
| WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 18th - 7:30pm |
| Tickets: $10 general / $9 students or seniors |
Controversial, conscientious and explicit, were the qualities that made iconic director Sam Fuller a molotov cocktail of powerful cinema, no better exemplified than with these two morbid and haunting tales of society's weight crumbling upon the individual. First, is Shock Corridor, with Peter Breck as the audacious reporter that willfully provokes to be interned into a sanitarium, with Contance Towers, as his partner in deceit. She also stars in the film to follow, The Naked Kiss, a harrowing tale of a tormented woman committed to escape a life of prostitution. Kelly (Towers), meets up with a roster of small town characters, among them, Police Captain Griff, played by Anthony Eisle. These are films you won't forget!

Review by Sean Axmaker
"An audacious mix of cynicism, sleaze, sentimental gooeyness and social commentary, The Naked Kiss is bizarre and at times an assault on the senses (the tone-deaf children's choir is a weird mix of cutesy sentiment and off-putting awkwardness) but there's nothing else like it. Fuller gives us an ugly, tawdry America hiding its guilt under a surface of normalcy. Read the full review here...
