A fisherman is skinned alive and goes on a quest for revenge in this comedic puppet animation for the whole family, if your family is a bit twisted. Totally in the style of (a more politically incorrect and low-budget) Dora the Explorer the audience is asked to participate with the questions on the screen.

In first-time director Shanker Raman’s Gurgaon, a family reunion between an adopted daughter who studied abroad, and her siblings and parents who stayed in India, turns violent when dark secrets of the past come to the forefront. Greed gives way to blood in this dark crime thriller from India.

Mr. Choade, the director of The House of Choade, a Grand Guignol theatre, has made an evil bargain with the Medicine Man, who has promised to help him make an artistic leap.

Linda's ex-girlfriend Roxy re-connects with her and attempts to save her. This film, a dark comedy by first time director James Habacker, was shot in Manhattan and features many luminaries from the downtown performance art scene centered around the Slipper Room.

Carnifex is about a group of friends whose stoner days are over. One by one the friends die insane and gruesome deaths. Hunted by the psychopath, Bram tries to fi nd the killer. What happened that Christmas night two years ago? Why isn’t the police helping? How are those Mexicans involved? Carnifex is a haunting tale full of blood, weirdness, fun and of course a Vietnam Flashback that doesn’t really make any sense.

Mansfield 66/67 is about the last two years of movie goddess Jayne Mansfield’s life, and the rumors swirling around her untimely death. As entertaining as a documentary can get. Examining reasons why Jayne Mansfield has become such a cult icon. Starring John Waters (BUT Film Festival Main Guest 2008)!

Two lesbian, vegan anarcho-punk roommates are in a battle with their landlord and get obsessed by their arachnid pet. A musical comedy with an anarchistic streak, and songs that will stick in your head long after the screening.

A woman on the run from her abusive husband encounters a mysterious hitchhiker. Richard Stanley’s shape shifter-horror-western turns 25 this year and is as poetic, haunting and twisted as ever. A true cult classic with an African setting you rarely see in horror movies.

In a desolate, future world, after civilization has collapsed, a wanderer fights to save a virgin mother from a powerful magician and, with her, searches for a mythical city containing the world's last survivors.

The sadistic tale of a lonely, mentally handicapped boy who befriends his reflection in an antique mirror. This demonic creature orders him to go on a murderous rampage to kill the people he loves most. Cult-classic in the making is politically incorrect, often times inimitably insane and beautifully ludicrous.

A weird documentary about everybody’s favorite weird musician. Brilliant music, even better anecdotes. Part of the Zappa Sunday, so if you want to bask in some glorious Zappamusic afterwards, you’re welcome to.
