GHOST IN THE
SHELL
(Dir. by Mamoru Oshii, 1995, Japan,
in Japanese with subtitles, 83 mins.,
Rated R)
A milestone of animated cinema,
writer/director/producer Mamoru
Oshii’s sci-fi masterpiece has
gone on to inspire a generation of
filmmakers and has become one of
the most revered anime features
of all time!
“Dizzying… for sheer mindexpanding
sci-fi strangeness,
this is hard to beat.” – Tom
Huddleston, Time Out
THE PRINCESS
BRIDE
(Dir. by Rob Reiner, 1987, USA, 98
min., Rated PG)
Scaling the Cliffs of Insanity,
battling Rodents of Unusual
Size, facing torture in the Pit of
Despair. This is not just your basic,
average, everyday, ordinary, runof-the-mill
fairy tale!
“A film to return to time and
again… If you are ever asked if you
want to watch The Princess Bride,
there can be but one answer: ‘As
you wish.’” – Jonathan Haynes,
Guardian UK
BLOOD SIMPLE
(Dir. by Joel Coen, 1984, USA, 95
mins., Rated R)
This razor-sharp modern film
noir, the first film by Joel and
Ethan Coen, introduced the
brothers’ inimitable black humor
and eccentric sense of character,
a sensibility that has helped
shape the course of contemporary
American cinema.
“Violent, unrelenting, absurd, and
fiendishly clever.” – Roger Ebert,
Chicago Sun-Times
AN AMERICAN
WEREWOLF IN
LONDON
(Dir. by John Landis, 1981, UK, 97
mins., Rated R)
A bizarrely effective mixture
of genuine laughs and scares,
featuring ground-breaking,
Oscar-winning makeup effects
by industry legend Rick Baker,
this lycanthropic tale of terror is
one of the pioneering films in the
horror/comedy genre. I see a bad
moon risin …
One of the all-time great horror
movies, a pitch-perfect mix of
belly laughs and genuine scares.” –
Rob Gonsalves, Efilmcritic.com
BACK TO THE
FUTURE
(Dir. by Robert Zemeckis, 1985,
USA, 116 mins., Rated PG)
Fire up your Flux Capacitor and
spend Labor Day Weekend going
Back to the Future with Marty
and Doc in one of the greatest
sci-fi comedies of all-time! Funny,
touching and suspenseful, this
love letter to American pop
culture is one of the most purely
entertaining films of the 1980s.
“To put it bluntly: if you don’t like
Back to The Future, it’s difficult to
believe that you like films at all.” –
Adam Smith, Empire
