The Evolution of Horror and MUBI present: THE DRILLER KILLER. The screening will be processed by a panel discussion.
Reno is a struggling artist pushed to the edge by the economic realities of New York living in the late seventies and the punk band practicing in the apartment below. His grip on reality soon begins to slip, and he takes to stalking the streets with his power tool in search of prey.
Transfusing exploitation with experimentation, The Driller Killer spills blood, guts, and ideas too. Drilling down into genre, Abel Ferrara’s notorious breakthrough mashes together throbbing punk concerts, lurid grindhouse kills, wicked political satire, and bohemian arthouse digressions.
