Arc Cinema presents a series of irreverent Friday night filmic feasts, curated and hosted by drag artist and culture warrior Venus Mantrap.
Cult Classics with Venus Mantrap plumbs the archives to showcase cinema with bite: films that unnerve, push buttons, ask questions and just look good on the big screen! Gather your tribe of misfits and rowdy rebels and join Venus for edgy movies, fan favourites and hidden gems.
Natural Born Killers is a 90s road trip like no other, with a screenplay by Quentin Tarantino, soundtrack produced by Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails), and directed by the prolific and multi-award-winning Oliver Stone.
Buckle up as Mickey and Mallory Knox - played by Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis - embark on a psychedelic spree of murder and mayhem across the American landscape, as intense media scrutiny propels them from disenfranchised obscurity into the celebrated anti-heroes of a doomed generation.
Join Venus for the 30th anniversary of this polarising vision, amidst a media landscape still obsessed by crime and a world seduced by fame.
‘Natural Born Killers, a brazenly radical movie when it was first released, on 26 August 1994, has never lost its sting of audacity. It's still dangerous, crazy-sick, luridly hypnotic, ripped from the id, and visionary' - Owen Gleiberman, Variety
Includes a pre-screening introduction and live performance by Venus Mantrap.
