Blue Velvet | Cinema Minima

by

Cinema Minima Features:
Blue Velvet
Sunday, July 7 at 8pm
Cole’s, 2338 N. Milwaukee, Chicago

In appreciation of contemporary avant-garde filmmakers, Cinema Minima will be screening David Lynch’s 1986 neo-noir classic Blue Velvet. Detested by many critics upon it’s initial release, this dark American mystery has garnished acclaim as ‘one of the greatest mystery films ever made.’ Featuring Dennis Hopper, Isabella Rosellini, and Kyle McLaughlin, Blue Velvet draws the curtain away from the facade of suburban complacency, revealing it’s hometown’s seediest underground characters. Free.

(120 min, 1986, Written/Directed by David Lynch, projected from DVD).

Cult-classic Death Race 2000 | Cinema Minima

by

Don’t forget THIS SUNDAY is the screening of Death Race 2000 at Cole’s for Cinema Minima.

“Death Race 2000!
(1975, 80 minutes, directed by Paul Bartel)
Sunday, February 3 at 8pm

This high energy cult classic is Cinema Minima’s antidote to this year’s Super Bowl. A Roger Corman production, directed by Paul Bartel, Death Race 2000! stars David Carradine, Sylvester Stallone, and Simone Griffeth. Taking you on a transcontinental race across a dystopian American landscape in the year 2000, Death Race plummets through it’s spectators with unapologetic fury, in this murderous form of national entertainment. Based on the short story The Racer by Ib Melchior and homaged by such films as Quentin Tarantino’s Death Proof, this 1975 cult classic aims to please those with an unusual taste for retrofitted excitement.
