Abruptio (2023) - Projected Figures Evan Marlowe's animated nightmare ABRUPTIO exploits its own uncanny valley to deliver Kafka-esque alienation and Lynchian fugue

"a schizophrenic skedaddle from reality, reflected even in the heavily stylised medium that [Evan] Marlowe has adopted, and ending with one hell of a hangover": the animated ABRUPTIO screens 9pm at the #MockingbirdCinema, Birmingham, for #CineExcess. Peak transgression!

Hellraiser (1987) - Projected Figures Clive Barker's Hellraiser uses the aesthetics of SM fetishism to show hellish demons back to reclaim their own. Its challenge: "This isn't for your eyes."

Double (creature) feature: Nicholas Vince's essay film I AM MONSTERS! (2023) and Clive Barker's HELLRAISER (1987), 7.30pm tonight at the #LumeCinema for #CineExcess
