London’s new fully independent grindhouse cinema, stage + bar - coming to South London






GRINDHOUSE DOUBLE FEATURE
DIRTY TALK
The Telephone Book (Nelson Lyon, 1971)
Fleshtone (Harry Hurwitz, 1994)

A smutty double bill of X-rated and rarely screened gems involving obscene telephone calls, right in the heart of the red light district. Along with sordid surprises, including rare public access TV footage, prank calls, video DJs, trailers and shorts.

THE TELEPHONE BOOK - a truly remarkable, beautifully filmed and seldom seen absurdist sexploitation satire in which a young woman falls in love with the world’s greatest obscene phone caller and attempts to track him down across New York City.

FLESHTONE - Martin Kemp stars as an exceptionally horny painter who begins to play erotic games over the telephone with a beguiling stranger. His life is upended when a mutilated body is found which may or may not be his mystery caller.

HALLOWEEN WITH VIDEO BAZAAR
NEXT OF KIN
(Tony Williams, 1982)

Join Video Bazaar and The Nickel this Halloween for a rare screening of Tony Williams’ Next of Kin. An unsettling piece of Australian horror, this eerie 1982 gem blends gothic suspense with psychological terror, making it perfect viewing for this Halloween season. Please note that this event will feature an introduction and a Halloween mystery video show carefully curated by your hosts.

Set in a decaying, isolated mansion, Next of Kin follows Linda, a young woman who inherits her family's aged rest home, only to discover a series of strange and terrifying events. As paranoia mounts and the past refuses to stay buried, the line between reality and nightmare blurs in this atmospheric slow-burn that builds to a shocking climax.

Often overlooked in the horror canon, Next of Kin has earned a cult following for its eerie slow-burn tension, gothic stylings and a haunting synth heavy score by Klaus Schulze of Tangerine Dream. The suffocating, creeping terror draws you in, leaving you questioning what’s real until the very end.

This screening is presented by The Nickel Cinema and cult film collective Video Bazaar, who exhibit rarely screened films and are dedicated to bringing the weird and obscure to London audiences.

 @ The Garden Cinema, WC2B 5PQ

SATURDAY 26TH OCTOBER
8.30PM:   INTRO
8.45PM:   FILM
