Thursday's parting movie recommendation

"Enys Men" officially opens tomorrow at Village East by Angelika on Second Avenue at 12th Street ... and the Regal Union Square. 

We caught an early screening this week ... and used these emojis to describe it on social media 🤯 and! 😳. (What are words for?) 

The official description: 
A wildlife volunteer on an uninhabited island off the British coast descends into a terrifying madness that challenges her grip on reality and pushes her into a living nightmare. Evoking the feeling of discovering a reel of never-before-seen celluloid unspooling in a haunted movie palace, this provocative and masterful vision of horror asserts Mark Jenkin as one of the U.K.'s most exciting and singular filmmakers.
[Side note: Jenkin's 2019 film "Bait" is also now playing at the Village East.] 

If you like low-budget experimental folk horror films shot on 16mm... "Enys Men" is for you!

Awesome recommendation Grieve! The one thing I will miss next month when I bid farewell to the Village after 50 years, is finding movies at Village East I would have never heard of otherwise.
