NIGHT OF THE HUNTER from 1955
Night of The Hunter screening
We're screening 'Night of The Hunter' on Saturday 25th October at 6.30pm in the Blackpool Community, 90 Great William O'Brien Street, Cork.The Night of the Hunter, is a 1955 American horror thriller film directed by Charles Laughton. It stars Robert Mitchum as Reverend Harry Powell, a psychopathic preacher with ‘love’ and ‘hate’ tattooed across his knuckles, relentlessly pursuing the children of his former cellmate across Depression-era West Virginia in the belief that they know where their father stashed his money. It's a complex film blending noir, thriller, and Gothic fairy tale elements and, over the years has become lauded for the masterpiece it truly is.
