Dark City Director’s Cut (1998/2008)

Never before screened theatrically, the director’s cut of Dark City is the only way you should see this visionary film by acclaimed Director Alex Proyas (The Crow; 1994). With nods toward Blade Runner, Metropolis and Franz Kafka, Dark City takes us inside the nightmarish world of John Murdoch (Rufus Sewell) who wakes up one day believing he may have committed a murder. Details about the murder, his beloved wife and much of his entire life are maddeningly out of grasp. As he seeks answers, he slowly uncovers a most horrifying truth. William Hurt, Kiefer Sutherland, Jennifer Connelly and Richard O’Brien also star. As with other ICFS events, expect prizes, surprises, comfy couches and a convenient bar. Rated R. 112 minutes.
