“How does a movie in which we have cheap actors running in cheap settings and facing cheap undead can be so awesome? I know, I said the same thing for 37 minutes. But you know what? After, there are 59 other minutes.<\/span><\/i> \u2013<\/span> Fran\u00e7ois Grondin, LPS<\/span><\/p>\n

“I thought I had seen everything in cinema. I saw pictures of strange babies in David Lynch’s Eraserhead, I saw a man ejaculate blood after being hit repeatedly in the genitalia in Lars Von Trier’s Antichrist, I saw people fucking with putrefying corpses in J\u00f6rg Buttgereit’s Nekromantik, I’ve seen people literally eating shit in Pier Paolo Pasolini’s Salo or 120-days of Sodom, but I hadn’t seen anything before seeing La noche del virgen (The Night of the Virgin) by Roberto San Sebasti\u00e1n<\/span><\/i>. <\/span>\u2013<\/span> Fran\u00e7ois Grondin, LPS<\/span><\/p>\n

Every year, Fantasia surprises us with original films, ever more frightening, ever more shocking… These excerpts from the reviews of <\/span>One Cut of the Dead<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>The Night of the Virgin <\/span><\/i>testify that these movies<\/span> are probably those which\u00a0 marked us the most in the past two editions of Fantasia. No wonder we are looking forward, every year, for this festival, which will run from July 11 to August 1st.<\/span><\/p>\n

What does Fantasia have in store for its 23rd edition? LPS offers you an overview of the program of the next three weeks.<\/span><\/p>\n

Aquaslash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Fans of horror movies will be served with <\/span>Aquaslash<\/span><\/i>, the new feature film by Renaud Gauthier, premiered on July 29, 2019. In this vibrant tribute to the gore films of the 80s, Gauthier, we discovered in 2013 with <\/span>Discopathe<\/span><\/i>, starts from a rather ordinary synopsis: a graduation weekend. The event turns into a nightmare when a murderer inserts huge razor blades into water slides, cutting off participants from the annual Wet Valley Water Park competition.<\/span><\/p>\n
