Acid and Evisceration: A Night with Jeff Lieberman

Director Jeff Lieberman in person

 

Blue Sunshine

dir. Jeff Lieberman, US, 1976, 16mm, 90 mins, color

 

This classic cult horror film is a masterpiece of psychological suspense and terror. At a party, someone goes insane and murders three women. Falsely accused of the brutal killings, Jerry (Red Shoe Diaries' Zalman King) is on the run. More bizarre killings continue with alarming frequency all over town. Trying to clear his name, Jerry discovers the shocking truth - people are losing their hair and turning into violent psychopaths and the connection may be some LSD all the murderers took a decade before. Soon, if Jerry can't stop it, the horror will become uncontrollable - the horror caused by Blue Sunshine!

 

Just Before Dawn

dir. Jeff Lieberman, US, 1981, 16mm, 99 mins, color

 

Five youths set out for a weekend camping excursion, to drink, frolic and skinny-dip on an isolated piece of land one of them has inherited. Despite ominous warnings by local forest rangers, strange backwoods families and a hollering drunken hunter claiming to have witnessed his friends’ evisceration by the hands of "demons", they trek farther into the foliage. Beautifully shot, extremely eerie, featuring the most demented murderer since Jason Voorhees, and a horrifying twist that will make you wonder - will any of them survive those dark hours just before dawn? Presented here in a very rare longer print with more footage than any video release of the film.
