Special Guests

Step into the world of Twin Peaks through the eyes of its most enigmatic and beloved character as we presented the new documentary I Know Catherine, The Log Lady. Directed by Richard Green (who you will recognize from his mesmerizing role in Mulholland Drive), this intimate documentary paints a vivid portrait of Catherine E. Coulson, the actress who brought Margaret Lanterman—the Log Lady—to life. More than a behind-the-scenes look, the film delves into Coulson's rich theatrical career, her deep friendships, and her unwavering dedication to her craft, even in her final days. Featuring interviews with David Lynch, Kyle MacLachlan, Mark Frost, and Jenny Sullivan, the documentary offers a rare glimpse into Coulson's personal and professional journey. It showcases her enduring legacy in the world of television and theater, highlighting her warmth, generosity, and the profound impact she had on those around her. Stick around after the screening for an in-person Q&A with Mr. Richard Green himself!

Vinegar Syndrome Pictures presents a Sunrunner Films production from director Austin Snell--They Call Her Death! And stick around after the screening for an in-person Q&A with director Austin Snell! On the wild frontier of the American prairie, Molly Pray is on a bloody crusade against the criminal forces that have wronged her. She shows no mercy, leaving a trail of bodies in her wake on a mission that ultimately strikes at the heart of the American identity and the notion of manifest destiny. But for Molly Pray - who has the embodied specter of death on her side - this isn’t political. This is personal.  They Call Her Death is inspired by Euro acid-westerns, 70s exploitation films, shot on 16mm, has great practical effects, and is bloody as hell. Not to mention the cherry on top--a very cool Morricone-esque score!
