L'Etrange 2015 Announces Their Massive Lineup!
Heads up, French genre film fans! The L'Etrange Festival have announced their massive 2015 lineup and - true to typical form - it is chock full of goodness. And badness. And weirdness. ScreenAnarchy is, once again, a media sponsor for the festival and this year we're proud to present a special screening of Can Evrenol's debut feature, Baskin, among a lineup that includes guest programming from Guy Maddin, Benoit Delepine and Ben Wheatley - who all present a slate of classic (or not so classic) titles that shaped their own works along with the best and brightest that the international filmmaking community has to offer. Here's the full list!
