35mm screening of the cult Japanese horror film 'Hausu' at The Trylon as part of its 'Evil Incantations' witchcraft and horror series.
The Trylon is bringing Hausu back to the big screen on Saturday, October 24, this time on 35mm. It's a Japanese horror cult classic from 1977, directed by Nobuhiko Ôbayashi, and it runs 88 minutes with English subtitles. If you've never seen it, the film is built from bizarre set pieces, subtle humor, and surreal deaths that still feel fresh more than four decades later. It's the kind of movie that's hard to describe to someone who hasn't seen it, and seeing it on 35mm gives it the room it deserves.
The screening is part of the venue's Evil Incantations series, which focuses on witchcraft, hexes, and demonology. Hausu has become a Halloween tradition at The Trylon, and the cinema bills it as a screening the audience attends "for the first or the twenty-first time"—the sort of thing you can keep coming back to without it ever quite wearing off. If you're already in the mood for something strange as October winds down, this is a good place to start.
