PURCHASE ADVANCE TICKETSIn keeping with our Halloween tradition of spooky silent cinema, we are honored to welcome guitar legend Gary Lucas and his live score performance to Carl Dreyer's silent horror classic, VAMPYR. Lucas’ dreamy, ethereal guitar score for VAMPYR compliments Dreyer’s visionary 1932 masterpiece with modern touches and creates a cinematic tension that spans a century of spooky storytelling.
VAMPYR, based on ghostly tales by Irish author J. Sheridan Lefanu, occupies a singular niche in the horror cinema, occupying its own peculiar space somewhere between a silent surrealist film and a sound film thriller. A German-French co-production filmed in France, dialogue is kept to a minimum and the film unfolds its convoluted narrative mainly through the use of gestures and subtitles. Dreamy, phantasmagoric soft-focus cinematography and unusual editing rhythms and camera angles dislocate the viewer's sense of time and space throughout—and nothing truly is just what it seems. French aristocrat (and "Vampyr" backer) Nicolas de Gunzberg plays Julian West, a lost soul out of time and space, who wanders one night into the village of Courtempierre, only to discover a sinister secret lurking in the shadows of the old cathedral.
