Scanners screening
2015-10-08 20:00 - 21:43 | Dryden Theatre at George Eastman House, 900 East Ave., Rochester, New York, 14607, United States
The Dryden will screen Scanners (David Cronenberg, Canada 1981, 103 min., 35mm).
The result of a scientific experiment gone awry, "scanners" have the ability to read thoughts, control others through brain waves and cause heads to explode. The doctor (Patrick McGoohan) who created this mutant breed attempts to stop the evil scanner army led by the nefarious Darryl Revok (Michael Ironside). The makeup effects by Dick Smith and the final confrontation between Revok and the angelic scanner Cameron Vale (Stephen Lack) provide genre fans with more than enough reason to see this horror classic. But master filmmaker Cronenberg invests the material with an often haunting personal quality that provides some unusual emotional resonance for the more discerning viewer.

Kicking off the ImageOut Film Festival is Liz en Septiembre (Liz in September, Fina Torres, Venezuela 2014, 100 min.) at the Little Theatre.
The gorgeous beaches of the Caribbean serve as the backdrop to Liz in September, a touching film based on the classic play Last Summer at Bluefish Cove by Jane Chambers. Director Fina Torres updates the original 1980 work, giving it a more streamlined, modern feel for today's audiences. Out lesbian actress/supermodel Patricia Velasquez (The Mummy, The Mummy Returns, The L Word) stars as Liz, a hard-partying, love-'em-and-leave-'em lesbian who celebrates her birthday each year with her friends in the Caribbean. But this year is different. Liz is terminally ill, a fact she hides from all but one of her friends. This will most likely be her last retreat with them and she wants to make the most of it.
