***Rare 35mm Screening with Director Larry Cohen & Eric Roberts in Attendance***
Eric Roberts, James Earl Jones, and Janine Turner star in a typically colorful “high concept” thriller (with humor) from Larry Cohen, one of the most reliably entertaining indie filmmakers over the past 30+ years. While this one may not be as well-known as Cohen’s classics It’s Alive, Q, or The Stuff, it’s still a smoothly entertaining flick about a mysterious ambulance that keeps snatching up all the women in Roberts’ life. And man it goes to some appreciably weird places.
