Moscow Film Society: Audition

Thursday, April 30 at 7 PM

“It gnaws on your mind like a famished larva, and you can fully expect to have a rough time of it later, when you close your eyes and try to sleep.”
— Marc Savlov, Austin Chronicle

Moscow Film Society presents AUDITION as part of their Creeping Dread series. One of the most infamous, impactful, and gut-wrenching Japanese horror films ever made! A recent widower and film producer stages fake movie auditions to find a new wife, becoming enchanted with a mysterious young woman whose charm hides something far more unsettling. With Audition, Takashi Miike delivers a nerve-shredding exploration of male fears and the myth of submissive Japanese women, shocking audiences worldwide with its slow-burn build and white-knuckle finale while helping spark a new wave of Asian horror. Japanese with English subtitles.

 Rated: R | 1 hr 55 min | Tickets: $8 Adult / Film Pass
