Richard Burton stars as a charming and handsome man on the brink of sanity. An ex-priest turned tour guide in Mexico, he makes a rollicking descent into alcoholic chaos when he takes over a tour bus of church ladies and drives to a secluded hotel in the jungle. Tempted alternately by nymphet Sue Lyon (star of Lolita) the lovely Deborah Kerr and the seductive Ava Gardner, he attempts to come to grips with life. Wild, intelligent and witty, Burton’s brilliant ranting brims with sly humor and misdirected libido. Directed by master John Huston, based on the Tennessee Williams smash hit, and nominated for a flock of oscars, Night of the Iguana is a blast!

Sexy, strange and downright eerie, this UK cult horror film is a bonafide classic. A religious police sargeant arrives on a small island to investigate the disappearance of a teenage girl, and discovers a secret society of pagans, who might be sacrificing maidens in a heathen ritual. Where else can you find pagan flower girls romping naked amid ancient stonehenge sets, Christopher Lee in drag, and the ravishing Britt Ekland doing a magikal dance?! Wicker Man is part summer of love, part paranoid horror and all weird fun.
Special DJ set from UK legend Andy Votel founder of the Finders Keepers, fine purveyors of turkish psychedelic music, hungarian rock, and funky iranian fuzz.
