Aorta Burst Film Club #3
This month, Aorta Burst celebrates the crazy Italian comics of the 1960s with a double bill of movies based on Magnus and Max Bunker’s skeleton garbed English superthief Kriminal. We’ll be showing low-budget filmmaking legend Umberto Lenzi’s stylish Italo thriller Kriminal (1966), followed by the thoroughly unsanctioned Turkish adaptation, Kilink Istanbul’da (1967), featuring guest appearances from Superman, the wizard Shazam and many more illegally repurposed comic book favourites!
Showing from 7pm this Wednesday at the Roxy Bar and Screen, the double bill will set you back a meagre £3 and the first 50 ticket holders get a free copy of Aorta Burst Zine #3, this time featuring comics appropriations of the multifaceted Kriminal by some of London’s best cartoonists and illlustrators.
The event is part of the fantastic Scala Beyond festival, a nationwide celebration of fringe cinema, and you can see Aorta Burst’s hilarious comics-form Scala Beyond declaration here.
