DESCRIPTION:For this movie night we’ll show a real horror classic and one o
	f our personal\nfavourites. Calling this movie a horror doesn’t do it just
	ice though\; this is a\nmasterpiece of surrealism\, made by the Canadian d
	irector David Cronenburg 'The\nBaron of Blood'. Like in many of his movies
	\, this movie is all about the\nsubconscious and surreal experiences. In f
	act Cronenberg is among those few\ndirectors that base their scripts on dr
	eams\, which makes the story much more of\na travel through the subconscio
	us than just a linear kind of plot.\n\nThis movie takes us back to the 80’
	s during the peek of the so-called “video\nera”\, when television was stil
	l a mighty medium and internet just a vague\nconcept used by the U.S. mili
	tary. We follow the main character in a voyage\nthrough the 80’s world of 
	video\, television and pornography in his quest for\ntruth\, sexual explor
	ation\, fascination and ultimately his transgression into\nsomething great
	er: THE VIDEO WORD MADE FLESH!\n\nSounds far off to you now\, but once you
	 get sucked into this movie and its\nimagery\, it won’t ever let you go an
	d it will haunt you for the rest of your\nmighty life. Sidenote: this movi
	e features Deborah Harry\, the singer of Blondie.\nHer performance in this
	 film is twisted\, sensual and unforgettable.\n\nSo\, if you are not put o
	ff by some gore\, BDSM and cheap erotica and you are\nready to transgress 
	the borders of mainstream cinema\, then join us in this\njourney beyond re
	ality...

	or classic and one of our personal favourites. Calling this movie a horror
	 doesn’t do it justice though; this is a masterpiece of surrealism, made b
	y the Canadian director David Cronenburg 'The Baron of Blood'. Like in man
	y of his movies, this movie is all about the subconscious and surreal expe
	riences. In fact Cronenberg is among those few directors that base their s
	cripts on dreams, which makes the story much more of a travel through the 
	subconscious than just a linear kind of plot. </p><p>This movie takes us b
	ack to the 80’s during the peek of the so-called “video era”, when televis
	ion was still a mighty medium and internet just a vague concept used by th
	e U.S. military. We follow the main character in a voyage through the 80’s
	 world of video, television and pornography in his quest for truth, sexual
	 exploration, fascination and ultimately his transgression into something 
	greater: THE VIDEO WORD MADE FLESH!</p><p>Sounds far off to you now, but o
	nce you get sucked into this movie and its imagery, it won’t ever let you 
	go and it will haunt you for the rest of your mighty life. Sidenote: this 
	movie features Deborah Harry, the singer of Blondie. Her performance in th
	is film is twisted, sensual and unforgettable. </p><p>So, if you are not p
	ut off by some gore, BDSM and cheap erotica and you are ready to transgres
