IFC Center announces the full slate for What the Fest!?, a four-day showcase of outrageous content — horror, sci-fi, documentary, thrillers, and beyond — from March 29th through April 1st.
Opening night will feature the New York Premiere of Coralie Fargeat’s Revenge, a thriller about a mistress who gets back at her married lover and his friends, turning their annual hunting trip into a deadlier adventure. The closing night film will be Jenn Wexler’s The Ranger, about a group of teen punks on the lam, who hide out from the cops in a remote cabin… only to run into bigger troubles. Wexler will appear at the Q&A, along with producer and co-star Larry Fessenden of Glass Eye Pix.
Programming highlights include the World Premiere of Boiled Angels: The Trial of Mike Diana, a documentary of the obscenity trail of comic book artist Mike Diana, directed by Frank Henenlotter (Basket Case). There will also be a sneak peek of a new episode from the AMC series The Terror with Jared Harris of “Mad Men” in person for a Q&A, horror film Ghost Stories starring Martin Freeman, and the World Premiere of the never-before-seen-in-the-U.S. restoration of Curse of Snakes Valley, known as “The Soviet Indiana Jones.”
