USA
Feature Film
Writer/Director: Robert Parigi
Cinematographer: Sidney Sidell
Composer: Nicholas Pike
Cast: Desmond Harrington, Melissa Sagemiller, Udo Kier, Rip Torn, Robert Bagnell, Brad Henke, John Cassini

A quiet instruction manual writer, under a great deal of pressure at work, orders a very expensive live size sex doll from the internet, which he models on his pretty new assistant Lisa, with whom he tentatively begins a relationship, much to the chagrin of Nikki, his rubber friend, in Parigi’s excellent directorial debut: a creepy, thoughtful, and well acted horror film.

Denmark/UK
Feature Film
Original Title: Mørke

Cast: Nikolaj Lie Kaas, Nicolas Bro, Lærke Winther Andersen, Laura Drasbæk, Lotte Bergstrøm, Anne Sophie Byder, Morten Lützhøft, Lisbet Lundquist

When his sister, severely disabled and brain-damaged following a suicide attempt, apparently kills herself on her wedding night, Jacob, a journalist, feels a great sense of guilt and grief; but when he uncovers information about her husband’s past that puts the cause of her death in doubt, he sets out for the small town of Mørke in search of answers, in this viscerally acted, thoroughly unpredictable, and often quite remarkable if only just about credible thriller.
