5:30 Who is Edgar Allen?
Who is Edgar Allen? is a grim look at the precariousness of identity which follows in the tradition of Persona and The Talented Mister Ripley-- a mystery that’s at once classically cinematic and psychologically incisive. Setting this uncanny tale of a student’s escalating obsessions in a shadowy and phantasmagoric Venice, Haneke emphasizes dark undercurrents of economic disparity and mental illness.
Directed by Michael Haneke, 1984, 83 min. Shown with...

7:30 The Castle
The Castle is a scathing take on bureaucratic entrapment, adapted faithfully from Franz Kafka’s unfinished novel. K, a land surveyor, is summoned to work to at the Castle and its surrounding village by a mysterious Count. When K arrives, he finds the hostile and incompetent villagers blocking his access to the castle at every step. Fans of the director’s experimental studieswill appreciate this impressive foray into surrealism; literary types consider Haneke’s spectral adaptation the most faithful to Kafka yet committed to film. A West Coast premiere of this rare print!
Directed by Michael Haneke, 1997, 123 min.


10:30 Ninja 3: The Domination
When Ninja 3: The Domination hit the screens, it was immediately hailed as a brave and important film, one of Hollywood's first to deal openly with the contemporary issue of ninja spirit possession. Okay, maybe it's not brave or important. But what do you expect from the director and star of the Breakin' series? Lucinda Dickey plays an aerobics instructor who is taken over by the ghost of a bloodthirsty ninja warrior. When she starts to take revenge against his murderers (apparently the entire Phoenix police department), another ninja badass, Sho Kosugi, must lock swords with our svelte heroine and exorcise the evil ninja demon. Ninja III boasts one of the greatest and most inexplicable opening sequences in all of martial-arts cinema, and Dickey looks good even when she's humiliating herself with a can of V8 juice—though the spandex doesn’t hurt. Another winner from Golan-Globus!
Directed by Sam Firstenberg, 1984, 92 min.
