Screening at Mayhem Film Fest:

Christina Hornisher's HOLLYWOOD 90028 (1973). FRI 18 OCTOBER 2pm.

The underbelly of Hollywood in the 70s exposed with vivid image making is a lost and now rediscovered classic.

Hoping to make it as a camera operator in Hollywood, a young photographer soon finds himself making “porn loops”… and murdering women. Director Hornisher bridges the divide between arthouse and grindhouse in this inspired, rediscovered portrait of a serial killer.
