The 10th annual Lausanne Underground Film Festival is a truly epic film event with an immense lineup of the strangest, sexiest, most grotesque, oddball and downright freakish movies from all over the world — from modern underground treats to classic cult movies of yesteryear.
The fest officially begins on Oct. 15 with a special live performance by the legendary Diamanda Galas. But the film festivities run from Oct. 17-23, starting with the grand opening of an exhibition and retrospective of the films by Ericka Beckman.
The full film lineup, which is presented below, is a massive mix of underground greatness, but here are some of the highlights:
Gross-Out Flicks:
Chop, dir. Trent Haaga.
The Taint, dir. Drew Bolduc and Dan Nelson.
Calibre 9, dir. Jean-Christian Tassy.
The Bunny Game, dir. Adam Rehmeier
Trippy Movies:
Profane, dir. Usama Alshaibi
The Oregonian, dir. Calvin Lee Reeder
Hellacious Acres: The Case of John Glass, dir.
