David Cronenberg delivers an entirely new take on body horror, reinventing the game yet again with his new film The Shrouds. This dramatic sci-fi thriller is a reflective stunner that combines the maestro’s signature body horror with profound elder-statesman reflection. Entering his 80s, Cronenberg (The Fly, Dead Ringers, History of Violence) continues to find new ways to innovate what can be done with bodies in cinema, losing none of his edge while demonstrating a true sense of empathy; the result is a film that astonishes while also being his most accessible film since Eastern Promises. 

In an eerie, deceptively placid near-future, a techno-entrepreneur named Karsh (Vincent Cassel) has developed a new software that will allow the bereaved to bear witness to the gradual decay of loved ones dead and buried in the earth. While Karsh is still reeling from the loss of his wife (Diane Kruger) from cancer—and falling into a peculiar sexual relationship with his wife’s sister (also Kruger)—a spate of vandalized graves utilizing his “shroud” technology begins to put his enterprise at risk, leading him to uncover a potentially vast conspiracy.

You sold out the first screening, so we’ve added two more! Director Ari Aster’s sun-drenched nightmare Midsommar is coming back for one final screening!

Following a tragic family loss, Dani (Florence Pugh) joins her boyfriend Christian (Jack Reynor) and his friends on a trip to a rural Swedish village for a midsummer festival. What starts as an idyllic escape soon spirals into an unsettling and grotesque series of rituals, as the group becomes entangled in the dark secrets of the commune.

Bathed in bright daylight and set against an idyllic backdrop, Midsommar takes a deeply disturbing look at grief, trauma, and the lengths people will go to in the name of tradition. Aster’s trademark slow-burn tension, paired with surreal imagery and shockingly graphic sequences, creates a haunting atmosphere that feels suffocating yet oddly captivating.
