In case any film buffs are keen to attend cult film screenings in East London, I organise and host a monthly cult film evening + post-film discussion at the Genesis Cinema on the Mile End Road...

Recently I've screened:'Holy Mountain', 'Battle Royale', 'The Shining','Female Trouble', 'Oldboy, 'The Thing', 'The Bird With The Crystal Plumage', 'El Topo', 'Hellraiser', 'Cat O' Nine Tails'... in October we are screening Dario Argento's 'Deep Red'

Here's a link to the next event - Blue Velvet' on Thursday 23rd September, 6.15pm

Holy Mountain is genuinely one of the weirdest things I’ve ever seen. It’s complete garbage, too.

The Thing is a stone-cold classic.

Genuine question: Is it considered rude if someone watches and leaves. I'd be up for watching, but I'm not one for analysing its meaning,etc.

What do you mean? Like watching Brokeback Mountain and have to go as you cannot contain your excitement?

Totally fine to just watch the movie and not stay for the post-film discussion

Also...
As for any other comments by others on the event. Being excited or even aroused by any homoerotic elements is of course naturally fine.

The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp (1943)
A UK film - one of the early colour movies
which was banned by Churchill simply for portraying a German (Prussian) officer in a sympathetic light.
This film is massively under-rated and worth a watch

Seeing Tom Courtney bonking Charlotte Rampling in 39 years cleared 25% of the meagre audience including me.

Typical Lynch something-weird-happening-in-suburbia flick, with one of movies most scary villain portrayals by Dennis Hopper.
