THE PEOPLE UNDER THE STAIRS, 1991, Universal, 102 min. Dir. Wes Craven. Claustrophobic terror and a savage satire of Reaganomics drive this tale of a teenager who tries to keep his family from being evicted but ends up trapped in the home of his psychotic landlords.

SOCIETY, 1989, Zecca Films, 99 min. Dir. Brian Yuzna. Billy suspects something isn’t quite right in his upper-class suburban neighborhood, and he’s right: Cannibalism and incest are just the beginning of the horrors going on behind closed doors.

THE BROOD, 1979, New World Pictures, 92 min. Dir. David Cronenberg. While experimenting with a way for his patients to manifest their inner rage as actual physical growths, Dr. Hal Raglan (Oliver Reed) encounters Nola (Samantha Eggar), a mother distraught at having her child taken away. She soon becomes pregnant again - but this time, something horrible and homicidal grows inside her womb.

Director William Lustig in Person!
MANIAC, 1980, Analysis Film Releasing, 87 min. Dir. William Lustig. Character actor extraordinaire Joe Spinell wrote the script and plays the title role in this deeply disturbing portrait of a man whose abusive upbringing turns him into a serial killer.

Classic Universal Horror

Dracula
1931, USA, 75 minutes
dir. Tod Browning, starring Bela Lugosi, Helen Chandler, David Manners, Dwight Frye, Edward Van Sloan, Herbert Bunston
7:30

Its brilliant sets and stunning camerawork, together with Lugosi’s elegantly sinister performance, make Dracula a memorable and influential classic.

- plus on the same bill -

Bride Of Frankenstein
1935, USA, 75 minutes
dir. James Whale, starring Boris Karloff, Colin Clive, Valerie Hobson, Ernest Thesiger, Elsa Lanchester, Gavin Gordon
9:10

The best of the Frankenstein movies–a sly, subversive work that smuggled shocking material past the censors by disguising it in the trappings of horror. Some movies age; others ripen. Seen today, Whale’s masterpiece is more surprising than when it was made because today’s audiences are more alert to its buried hints of homosexuality, necrophilia and sacrilege. But you don’t have to deconstruct it to enjoy it; it’s satirical, exciting, funny, and an influential masterpiece of art direction. - Roger Ebert
