Spirited Away (2001): Read the canonically weird entry! Hayao Miyazaki‘s most popular (and arguably best) feature, a good candidate for the title “the ‘Alice in Wonderland’ of Japan,” gets a short-lived wide release courtesy of Fathom Events for its 20th anniversary. There’s also one promising new-to-us debut: Bloody Oranges, a French feature involving multiple storylines about a dance contest, a crooked politician, and a pervert programmers use the keyword “surreal.” Also with a revival of the amazingly bad and sleazy direct-to-video horror Boardinghouse (1982) and numerous shorts, podcasts and special panels. Among those we have previously noted but have yet to catch are Bertrand Mandico‘s visually amazing After Blue (Dirty Paradise) and the title-says-it-all doc Woodlands Dark and Days Bewitched: A History of Folk Horror. The streaming titles we’ve covered elsewhere are the nun dramedy Agnes, the Japanese time travel comedy Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes, the experimental documentary Code Name: Nagasaki, Brazil’s sentient auto horror King Car, stop-motion nightmare Mad God, the restrospective Satoshi Kon: The Illusionist, the existential comedy Stanleyville, and the horror-drama We’re All Going to the World’s Fair. All titles stream exclusively online and are geolocked to the U.S.
This year, the participating festivals are Boston Underground, Brooklyn Horror, North Bend, and Overlook. Nightstream came about in 2020 as an online collaboration between smaller film festivals that were canceled due to the pandemic it proved enough of a success to have another go in 2021. Trailers of new release movies are generally available at the official site links.įILM FESTIVALS – Nightstream (Online, Oct 7-13): Our weekly look at what’s weird in theaters, on hot-off-the-presses DVDs and Blu-rays (and hot off the server VODs), and on more distant horizons… 366 Weird Movies may earn commissions from purchases made through product links.
