About this event

A teenager uncovers an elite ritualistic society in Brian Yuzna's stomach-churning mix of body-horror and social commentary. Teenager Bill Whitney has always felt like the odd one out in his wealthy, upper-class Beverly Hills family. For some reason, he just doesn’t seem to fit in. But his sense of alienation takes a sinister turn when he hears an audio recording of his sister’s coming-out party, which seems to implicate his family and others in a bizarre, ritualistic orgy. And then there are the strange things he’s been seeing – glimpses of people with their bodies contorted impossibly out of shape… Is Bill going mad or is there something seriously amiss in his neighbourhood? Packing stomach-churning gore (from the master of practical effects Screaming Mad George) and thought-provoking social commentary in equal measure, Society is a biting horror satire which culminates in one of the most gag-inducing “climaxes”’ in all of horror history. All of our screenings are 18+ unless otherwise stated, and the film start time is as advertised above. Content Warnings: Contains strong horror, sex and sex references, nudity and strong language Runtime: 100 minutes Director: Brian Yuzna Country: U.S.A Year: 1989 Film
