GIRL TRASH: CELEBRATING THE GODDESSES OF EXPLOITATION CINEMA
GIRL TRASH presents the most sparkling of golden raspberries, MOMMIE DEAREST (1981): the film that didn’t (initially) know it was trash.
Glamorous Hollywood icon Joan Crawford (played by a maniacal Faye Dunaway) adopts two children, Christina and Christopher, in a bid for a fairytale happy family. But Joan is a controlling perfectionist, and when her fortunes take a turn for the worse - heartbreak, career downturn - the manipulative behaviour she already exhibits towards her daughter Christina (Diana Scarwid) escalates into histrionic abuse. As she scrabbles to cling onto fame, Joan lashes out, with her children bearing the brunt of her desperation.
Originally intended as a serious biopic, MOMMIE DEAREST was adapted from a sensational memoir by Christina Crawford, detailing the abusive childhood she and her adoptive brother suffered at Joan’s hands. Paramount Pictures thought they’d have an Oscars contender on their hands with Faye Dunaway as their leading lady. But with melodramatic script and direction, and Dunaway’s larger-than-life Crawford impersonation, the film became something else altogether.
Its camp savagery and deranged glamour was panned by contemporaneous critics, but MOMMIE DEAREST has since won a cult following among queer audiences. Join us to celebrate GIRL TRASH GODDESS Faye Dunaway, proof that even an Oscar winner can go trash (if they act unhinged enough).
Polite notice: We are projecting MOMMIE DEAREST with subtitles from the best available digital source. The BBFC warns that MOMMIE DEAREST contains scenes of "emotional & physical abuse" and "strong to moderate and mild bad language", namely 'f**k', 'bitch', 'bastards', 'Christ', 'damn', 'God', 'goddamn', 'shit' and 'son of a bitch'. You know you want this.
/// GIRL TRASH celebrates the femme filmmakers of trash and exploitation cinema, hosted by Zodiac Film Club and Token Homo. All films are served with introductions, intermissions, prize giveaways, and subtitles / captions where possible. Adults 18+ only. Follow @zodiacfilmclub and @tokenhomo on Instagram for info and updates. Please contact the venue for access information. ///

Darren Vukasinovic - Writer / Director/ Producer
Donna Sherifa - Director / Producer / Exec producing
This panel discussion will examine how professional relationships form, grow, and turn into real work. We will explore questions such as:
• How do filmmakers find collaborators they trust?
• What makes someone a recurring member of a creative team?
• How do actors move from being hired once to being invited back again and again?
• What role does reputation, reliability, and collaboration play on set?
• How has the modern landscape — especially social media and online platforms — changed the way relationships form within the industry?
Whether you are an actor, director, producer, crew member, or someone looking to finance or support independent film, this event is designed to help you understand one essential truth of the industry:
The right relationships don’t just help careers.
They get films made.
As part of the event, we will also introduce vShowcards, a platform designed specifically to strengthen these industry relationships. Attendees will see how vShowcards helps actors, filmmakers, producers and crew connect, discover collaborators, and build the professional networks that drive independent film.

The Edge of Existence captures the incredible and emotional story of Cam Cameron, electronics teacher, devoted father and husband, as he attempts to survive 60 days on Rockall, the UK’s most remote and dangerous island. Driven by a need to reconnect with his estranged family, Cam’s quest is not merely a test of endurance but a deeply personal challenge. Having already lost his father and two brothers, Cam is his mother’s only surviving son, a fact that weighs heavily on his mind as he prepares to break the world record.
Only five individuals in history have spent more than a single night on Rockall, a statistic lower than the number of people who have been to the moon. As he struggles against the brutal elements and his own fears, viewers are left questioning the human spirit's drive to endure such extreme isolation. What compels a man to risk everything for a symbolic milestone? And at what cost to those who love him?
The Edge of Existence explores the tension between ambition and responsibility, drawing audiences to wonder what would happen if he didn’t survive. This film questions the true meaning of adventure and the sacrifices made in the pursuit of legacy, leaving viewers on the edge of their seats.

GIRL TRASH: CELEBRATING THE GODDESSES OF EXPLOITATION CINEMA
Buckle up for the finale in our GIRL TRASH season, the trashiest girl trash that ever girl trashed (and according to John Waters, "the best movie ever made") - FASTER PUSSYCAT... KILL! KILL! (1965).
Made by B-movie great Russ Meyer, whose excellent filmmaking mantra was - lust and profit", PUSSYCAT was developed simply as a 'girl' version of one of his earlier successes, MOTORPSYCHO! (1965). That film had revolved around "three bad boys", so PUSSYCAT would feature "three bad girls" - that’s exploitation math. And because Russ Meyer's particular brand of lust called specifically for women beating men to a pulp - those three bad girls are the greatest GIRL TRASH GODDESSES in cinema history.
Go-go dancers Varla, Rosie, and Billie love to spend their time off racing fast cars in the desert and committing impulsive crimes. When a race with a young couple leads to the man's death, the three kidnap his girlfriend and head off into the desert for more hijinks.
PUSSYCAT is a film simply swarming with GIRL TRASH GODDESSES, from star of the show Tura Satana, whose portrayal of Varla (creating the character's look and performing all her own stunts) was described by Waters as one of the best villains in film history, to her unhinged co-stars Haji and Lori Williams, and producer Eve Meyer. Special mention also, to Janice at the Russ Meyer Foundation, who allowed us to include PUSSYCAT in our season.
Join us one last time to wave off the GIRL TRASH season as it screeches into the desert at 100mph.
Polite notice: We are projecting FASTER PUSSYCAT... KILL! KILL! without subtitles from the best available digital source issued/approved by RM Films International. The BBFC awarded FASTER PUSSYCAT... KILL! KILL! an 'X' rating on its original theatrical release, making this screening strictly for adults aged 18+ only.
/// GIRL TRASH celebrates the femme filmmakers of trash and exploitation cinema, hosted by Zodiac Film Club and Token Homo. All films are served with introductions, intermissions, prize giveaways, and subtitles / captions where possible. Follow @zodiacfilmclub and @tokenhomo on Instagram for info and updates.

Blank-faced bug killer Bill Lee and his dead-eyed wife, Joan, like to get high on Bill's pest poisons while lounging with Beat poet pals. After meeting the devilish Dr. Benway, Bill gets a drug made from a centipede. Upon indulging, he accidentally kills Joan, takes orders from his typewriter-turned-cockroach, ends up in a constantly mutating Mediterranean city and learns that his hip friends have published his work -- which he doesn't remember writing.

In the seaside village she calls home, Morwenna (Anna Ivankovic) - also known as “Scummy” (a bad Cornish joke) - is reeling from a breakup, navigating the impending sale of her house after the death of her grandfather, and struggling to make ends meet as an artist. In walks Inga (Carys Glynne), a strange fur-clad woman passing through the area.

Martin is a fisherman without a boat, his brother Steven having re-purposed it as a tourist tripper.

One of the most creative films of the year, Cornish writer and director Mark Jenkin tussles with the politics of empathy, class and change in this gripping and original drama. Shot entirely on an analogue, clockwork 16mm camera Jenkin developed his film by hand to create scratches and glitches, lending a harsh and primitive but totally engaging look to his film, resulting in a style unlike anything else in modern cinema.

GIRLHOOD. DEAD MEN DRIVING. REVENGE AT ITS FINEST.
Burning through the asphalt of the American highway, Thelma & Louise is a sun-scorched outlaw odyssey of freedom, fury, and friendship that refuses to ask permission. What begins as a weekend getaway swerves into something far more dangerous - a girlhood road movie where the rules are rewritten, the men don’t stay in control, and justice is taken, not given.
Part buddy movie, part rebellion myth, part furious scream into the canyon, this is a story about what happens when women push back - and keep driving.

Sergeant Neil Howie, a police officer from the Scottish mainland, travels to the remote island of Summerisle to investigate the disappearance of a 12-year-old girl, Rowan Morrison. A devout Christian, he is unsettled by the islanders' overt pagan beliefs, public sexual rituals, and indifferent attitude toward the missing child.

As preparations for the May Day festival intensify, his suspicions grow-and he begins to fear that something far more insidious is at play.
The Wicker Man eschews many conventional horror tropes, instead blending elements of detective thriller, folk musical, and arthouse fantasy. The bright, colourful optimism of the spring setting contrasts sharply with an atmosphere of looming dread, creating an unsettling dissonance that underpins the slow-burning mystery.
