BC Premiere! SPECIAL, ONE NIGHT ONLY PRESENTATION AT THE CAPITOL 6 IN VICTORIA ON WEDNESDAY, MAY 9TH AT 7PM and 940PM.
=0D=0A=“Director Coralie Fargeat goes the full grindhouse with flair, channeling a female gaze and a wicked sense of humor into a rape payback thriller that churns a river of blood.” -- David Rooney, THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER
=0D=0A=“Coralie Fargeat’s feature directorial debut isn’t only an astonishing, subversive take on tired clichés; it’s also a confidently crafted tale of female survival and rebirth...a different kind of superhero story, where power is found in survival” - Britt Hayes, SCREENCRUSH
=0D=0A=“An exploitation movie that knowingly abuses the male gaze and then turns that uncivilized, leering lens on its head, placing us squarely in the shoes of its brutalized angel of vengeance.” --- Jacob Knight, BIRTH.MOVIES.DEATH
=0D=0A=“Harrowing and thrilling...ample style, remarkable tension, decidedly French black humor, and more blood than I believe the human body actually contains.” -- Brian Tallerico, ROGEREBERT.COM
=0D=0A=Starring Matilda Anna Ingrid Lutz, Kevin Janssens, Vicent Colombe.
=0D=0A=Jen (fearlessly embodied by Matilda Lutz) is enjoying a romantic getaway with her wealthy boyfriend which is suddenly disrupted when his sleazy friends arrive for an unannounced hunting trip. Tension mounts in the house until the situation abruptly--and viciously--intensifies, culminating in a shocking act that leaves Jen left for dead. Unfortunately for her assailants, Jen survives and reemerges with a relentless, wrathful intent: revenge. A white-knuckle tale of transgression and transformation, REVENGE gloriously blurs the lines of vengeance and survival while simultaneously delivering a ferocious dissection of gender and genre.
=0D=0A=NOTE: Rated 18a for some graphic violence. Viewer discretion is advised. Reserve your recliners NOW at www.Capitol6.ca!
