Feature
Big Trouble In Little China

Feature
Deadly Friend
Wes Craven unleashes his famed trademarks-in-terror on this violent tale filled with gratuitous gore that fuses Frankenstein with Electric Dreams. This twisted, high-voltage love story of adulation, obsession, and lethal robotics hits like a basketball to the face.

Feature
Friday The 13th Part VI: Jason Lives

Vamp
A wild, blood-soaked cocktail of horror and comedy, Richard “The Equalizer” Wenk makes his directorial debut with the indomitable Grace Jones as a sexy stripper with fangs of gold who sets her sights on turning three hapless college dweebs into real (dead) men—one bite at a time.
2:30pm Sun, 1st March, Cinema Nova, Melbourne

Feature
From Beyond

Venue: Dendy Cinemas Canberra
High-tech robots equipped with state-of-the-art security systems have been recruited as the new mechanical “night watchmen” of Park Plaza Mall. But when a lightning strike fries the central computer, the robots become Killbots—and they’re hunting late-night shoppers. Four couples sneaking after-hours fun in the mattress store soon find themselves marked for the morgue. At Park Plaza, you can save on everything but your life! Starring Barbara Crampton (Re-Animator), Kelli Maroney (Night of the Comet) and Tony O’Dell (The Karate Kid), this Wynorski classic also boasts a slew of cracker cameos including Dick Miller (Gremlins), Mary Woronov (Rock ’n’ Roll High School), Paul Bartel (Eating Raoul) and Gerrit Graham (Phantom of the Paradise).
