Never before released theatrically in the States, Altered Innocence has restored the feverish cult film Arrebato (Rapture) and is bringing it to New York and Los Angeles theaters this October, Bloody Disgusting exclusively learned.
“Brand-new 4K restoration of Arrebato, a dimension-shattering blend of heroin, sex, and Super-8 is the final word on cinemania,” hypes the press release. “This towering feat of counterculture was the final feature of Spanish cult filmmaker and movie poster designer Iván Zulueta.
In the film…
“Horror movie director José is adrift in a sea of doubt and drugs. As his belated second feature nears completion, his reclusive bubble is popped by two events: a sudden reappearance from an ex-girlfriend and a package from past acquaintance Pedro: a reel of Super-8 film, an audiotape, and a door key. From there, the boundaries of time, space, and sexuality are erased as José is once more sucked into Pedro’s vampiric orbit. Together, they attempt the ultimate hallucinogenic catharsis through a moebius strip of filming and being filmed.”
Arrebato will be playing the Anthology Film Archives in NYC from October 1-7 and the Nuart in Los Angeles from Oct. 8-14.
A home video release will follow.
