A succesful photograper in swinging sixties London leads an aimless existence. Then one day he apparently witnesses a murder in the park.

It's sick, it's weird, it's spooky, but it's compulsive viewing. Forget Brat Packs and Rambo, this is the dark side to America. Beneath the squeaky clean surface lurk neuroses and perversions, degradation and despair. Brilliantly done, this film will haunt you. find out more...

An audaciously accomplished directorial debut from writer and leading man Vincent Gallo. Recently released from prison for a crime he didn't commit, Billy Brown (Gallo) decides to head for the family homestead, where his parents believe their son's been away building a brilliant career.

A rich fantasy and extraordinary visual film based on Angela Carter's novels (changing traditional fairytales to dark tales of sexuality and seduction).

David Cronenberg puts the human psyche under the microscope here, with the central characters seemingly hypnotised by their own dark compulsions. James and Catherine have an open relationship, proudly regaling each other with the ice-cold details of their latest extra-marital exploits, but a head-on crash involving Holly Hunter provides the catalyst for James's erotic obsession with auto accidents and, after hooking up with Vaughan, who re-stages celebrity car crashes, and his lover, who wears l find out more...

Returning to themes he had touched upon in his earlier films Polanski develops the idea of Pinter's "two people in a room and then a third enters" with a couple on a remote island invaded by two on-the-run gangsters. Gradually the power positions shift... underlined with great black humour. find out more...
