Stars Peter Fonda, Hopper and Jack Nicholson.

SCREEN SECT: Gun Crazy (Joseph H. Lewis, 1949)
Brilliant, subversively sexy story of two gun-obsessives who fall in love and embark on a robbery and murder spree (naturally). Far superior to Arthur Penn’s 1968 Bonnie & Clyde, this B-movie transcends its low budget to deliver an intense, often surreal portrait of deadly amour.

SCREEN SECT: American Movie (Chris Smith, 1999)
A strangely inspirational documentary, this follows the at-times comedic misadventures of manically driven Milwaukee film-maker Mark Borchardt, as he struggles against bad planning, financial hardship and an amateur cast and crew, to complete his independent horror film ‘Coven’. A must-see.
Doors 7.30pm
