Viewing Notes

I was pretty stoked to find that a 35mm print of Andrzej Zulawski’s Possession would be playing on October 1 at the Music Box Theatre in Chicago. That’s the first day of my personal challenge! Naturally, I went. Because, why wouldn’t I see this insanely disturbing nightmare that nearly made the Video Nasties list?
