Event Details

New Farm Cinema: Saturday, March 7th – 8.30pmThe first and only feature film from Saul Bass, a graphic designer primarily known for his pioneering work on the title sequences of Hitchcock movies. With an unsettling combination of droning synthesisers and creepily beautiful macrophotography, Phase IV is a stylised, psychedelic and, at times, extremely bleak take on the monster movie that focuses less on man-to-ant combat and more on the strange horror of what would happen if ants were just a little bit smarter.

BRISBANE ONLY RADIOACTIVE LIFEFORMS FILM FESTIVAL

From the people who brought you BORLFF (the Brisbane Only Rotoscoped Lightning Film Festival), BORLFF (the Brisbane Only Repulsive Liquid Film Festival), and BORLFF (the Brisbane Only Roads and Leather Film Festival), comes BORLFF (the Brisbane Only Radioactive Lifeforms Film Festival). Brisbane’s longest running acronym-recycling retroactive film festival returns once again with a new name for a one-day instalment exploring the world of the mutated ant.

Two Bit Movie Club’s bonus single day BORLFF will be taking place at the historic New Farm Cinemas on Saturday the 7th of March. Two Bit Movie club is the spawn of Brisbane bars Netherworld and The Scratch. This edition’s art is by Brisbane artist Nelson Gibbins.
