SHOWTIMES AT IFC CENTER

Saturday, July 5 at 6:35 p.m.: Introduction by VIDEOHEAVEN director Alex Ross Perry

VIDEO VIOLENCE finds a normal and unsuspecting couple, Steve and Rachel, completely immersed in a town of blood-drunk crazies. Led by sickos Howard and Eli, these backwater psychopaths create and watch their own snuff films. One day an unmarked tape shows up in the return bin of Steve’s video store, and it’s the town postmaster being savagely mutilated. Can it be real, or is it just a gag? He’ll soon discover the horrifying answer…
