KILLER'S KISS
A remarkable, no-budget early feature from Stanley Kubrick and loaded to the gills with enough cinematic bravado to fill a dozen MGM epics. A young prize-fighter becomes entwined in the lives of a dance-hall girl and her violent gangster boyfriend. The director's emphasis is on mood and place, and he fills the screen with an incredible abundance of cinematic energy. Wicked and unforgettable on the big screen! Starring Frank Silvera, Jamie Smith, Irene Kane. Music composed by Gerald Fried. Photographed and directed by Stanley Kubrick. In B&W. 35mm Studio Archive Print. 67 mins. 1955. FRI at 8:00 and 11:00 pm

FEMALE JUNGLE
Ridiculously rare and obscure, this unjustly ignored low-budget film may well be the sleeper sensation of the entire series! After blacking out, an alcoholic cop now can't be certain that he himself is not the one who strangled the sexy Hollywood starlet to death. Dripping with doom and despair, it is the very distillation of noir. Don't let anything stop you from seeing this maudit masterpiece! Starring Lawrence Tierney, Jayne Mansfield, John Carradine, Burt Kaiser, Kathleen Crowley. Photographed by Elwood "Woody" Bredell. Directed by Bruno VeSota. In B&W. Presented in high quality DIGITAL. 73 mins. 1956. FRI at 6:20 and 9:30
