Night Light Showing at Cinema Salem: "Tetsuo: The Iron Man"
What makes a film “cult?” Is it a lost masterpiece? A “so bad it’s good” camp treasure? Or, like the haunted VHS tape in THE RING, is it a dark, dark door that should have never been opened? Every Friday night, Cinema Salem brings you entries from the cult canon and new nuggets of negative energy, ready to be unearthed. While Salem sleeps, Cinema Salem keeps the light burning.
A timeless tale of an ordinary man who comes under the malicious influence of an undead metal fetishist. So low-budget that its principal cast was also its crew, Tsukamoto’s deep-underground classic steals fire from ERASERHEAD’s electro-mechanical wellspring and sinks it deep into VIDEODROME’s “new flesh,” planting alongside it the debased eroticism of J.G. Ballard’s Crash. A must-see for all cyberpunk freaks.Date and Time
