Nosferatu- A gothic tale of obsession between a haunted young woman and the terrifying vampire infatuated with her, causing untold horror in its wake. This is based on the 1922 silent film that was almost lost a long time ago and this is remake is awesome. It is a bit of a slow burn but that’s what makes it so good. Director Robert Eggers has not made a bad movie yet.
September 5- During the 1972 Summer Olympics in Munich, Germany, an American sports broadcasting team must adapt to live coverage of the Israeli athletes being held hostage by a terrorist group. This is a great little drama about the ABC sports group covering this event instead of the news group.
Looking for Mr. Goodbar- Dedicated schoolteacher Theresa Dunn spends her nights cruising bars, looking for males with whom she can engage in progressively dangerous extreme sexual encounters. This is one of those movies that has not been available for years because of rights issues. Luckily Vinegar Syndrome has been able to put out a limited run so go get one fast.
Dinner with Leatherface- Documentary about Gunnar Hansen, the actor who portrayed Leatherface in "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" (1974). Friends, colleagues, filmmakers, and fellow actors share personal stories and discuss the dichotomy between the maniacal chainsaw-wielding character he played on-screen and the very intelligent, creative, soft-spoken man he actually was in real life.
