For this Sunday Kino Night, first up is Day for Night (1973), one of the most acclaimed films of one of the most renowned auteurs of French cinema, Francois Truffaut; surprisingly, we have never watched any of his work on the ;tube. That changes tonight. This film is a comedy-drama about a stressed-out director trying to navigate various crises, both large and small, as he tries to finish his latest film. Will we succeed, or will the pressure drive him to madness? I guess we’ll find out.
After that is Weapons (2025), the new blockbuster horror feature from Zach Cregger, the guy behind Barbarian (2022), which we previously watched. All the kids in a quiet suburban town, except for one, suddenly disappear, and the grown-ups have to figure out what happened. I bet there’s some spooky stuff behind this mystery. Critics are raving about this one, and a good quality camrip just appeared, so let’s give it a whirl.
We’ll start at 8PM EST on Blorptube, right here:
