MASTERS OF HORROR (PROGRAMME 3)

Director: Brad Anderson and Takashi Miike


Sounds Like, directed and written by Brad Anderson (The Machinist) from a short story by Mike O’Driscoll, tells of Larry Pearce, an ordinary man cursed with extraordinary hearing that drives him to the brink of insanity and forces him to take violent action to silence the horrific cacophony in his head.
U.S.A., 2006. COLOUR. DIGITAL VIDEO. 60 MIN.
Imprint, directed by Takashi Miike, is about an American (played by Billy Drago) who travels to a Japanese ‘island of whores and demons’ to search for the lover he had to leave behind years earlier. What he finds, or more suitably what finds him, is the stuff of nightmares. Imprint was considered too extreme and was never shown by Showtime, the American cable television channel that co-produced the ‘Masters of Horror’ series.
U.S.A., 2006. COLOUR. DIGITAL VIDEO. 60 MIN.

Series producer Andrew Deane will introduce this screening.
