Jump Cut presents our Noir Night Out series,
The Naked Kiss (1964).
Shock and shame story of a night girl!
The Film: A reformed lady of the evening (Constance Towers) moves to an idyllic small town, determined to make a clean start. She falls for a small-town hero (Michael Dante), only to find something dark and perverse simmering under the surface. The film in many ways was years ahead of its time for 1964, tackling heavy issues such as exploitation of women, misogyny, and the hypocrisy of middle-class morality. Written and directed by Sam Fuller, The Naked Kiss is a remarkable film - a must for film noir fans.
The Parkway Theater and Film Lounge features a full bar and Abjuration Brewing, all under the same roof!

Deep Red (1975)
WHEN THE SCREAMING STARTS AND THE BLOOD BEGINS TO FLOW… PINCH YOURSELF AND KEEP REPEATING I’M AT THE MOVIES! I’M AT THE MOVIES! I’M AT THE MOVIES! I’M AT THE MOVIES!
The Film: A pianist is the sole witness to the murder of a famous psychic, and the killer wants him dead.
He teams up with a sassy reporter to find the murderer, all the while dodging attempts on their lives by the unseen killer who is hell-bent on concealing a dark secret. Come for the brutal over-the-top gore that made Dario Argento famous, but stay for the gripping, complex story. Deep Red, which is ranked among his most sophisticated giallo films, was a transitional film for Argento, in between his earlier gialli and his later supernatural features like Inferno, Phenomena, and Suspiria. Deep Red is Argento’s first of many scores with Italian progressive rock band Goblin (who also scored a few of George Romero’s films).
