They Call Her Death
Guild Cinema, Saturday, July 5 at 10:30 PM MDT
THEY CALL HER DEATH on Instagram: "Coming to ALBUQUERQUE, NM Vinegar Syndrome Pictures presents a Sunrunner Films production of “THEY CALL HER DEATH” - screening at @guildcinema on July 5th! Writer/director Austin Snell will be in attendance for a Q&A, and Vinegar Syndrome will be in the house with a pop-up shop! “THEY CALL HER DEATH” is a throwback splatter western shot entirely on 16mm film! Molly Pray is on a bloody crusade against the criminal forces who have wronged her. Her mission strikes at the myth of manifest destiny, but for Molly, with the embodied specter of Death on her side, this isn’t political. This is personal."
Hell or Hot Water & Other Experimental Films
Guild Cinema, Friday, June 27 at 07:00 PM MDT
Dir. Various - 2025 - 90m total approx.
An experimental “hot tub western” short film, created by an ensemble of New Mexico based artists and filmed in Truth or Consequences, NM!
The film is an irreverent reimagining of the western genre, playing with the vocabulary of the Hollywood genre - saloon, showdown, dust, card game, fate, death - to create a campy pastiche. The project was inspired by underground films of the 1950’s-70’s, such as Andy Warhol’s Lonesome Cowboys (1968), Kenneth Anger's Inauguration of the Pleasure Dome (1954), Alejandro Jodorowsky’s El Topo (1970), and Sheila Page’s Women’s Happy Time Commune (1972).
Hell or Hot Water was created in an anarchic, potluck-style: each player came up with their own character and costume, and the ensemble developed scene ideas together. The project was shot on rolls of expired 16mm film with a Bolex film camera and all the sound in the film was sourced from vinyl records and cassette tape recordings.
The filmmakers/ensemble include Beth Hansen, Jenette Isaacson, Lacey Chrisco, Chandler Wigton, Alys Griego, Joseph Reeves, Holly Adams, Leon Rael, Ariel Dougherty, Charlotte Janus, Nina Fonoroff, and James Riedeman. Made with equipment and film support from Basement Films.
Showing alongside Hell or Hot Water are a selection of other experimental films by friends that are thematically related.
$5 to $15 donations appreciated!

Quentin Tarantino – „Reservoir Dogs“ (1993)
Als ich „Reservoir Dogs“ vor über 30 Jahren zum ersten Mal gesehen habe, war ich Ende 20 – Tarrantino ist also einer meiner Generation – und hat mich völlig überwältigt. Dieser Film hatte eine Energie, eine Coolness, die ich so noch nie zuvor erlebt hatte. Die Gewalt war roh, die Dialoge pointiert, und der Soundtrack? Eine Offenbarung. Für mich, so sehr, wie für das Weltkino… (ARTE)
