BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

#BeyondFest Present HE NEVER DIED Q&A With #HenryRollins

On Wednesday October 7th, Beyond Fest is proud to host punk icon Henry Rollins in conversation with Shepard Fairey alongside the West Coast Premiere of his new film HE NEVER DIED.

In a role he grabs by the throat, Rollins plays Jack, a dark longer whose life is turned upside down by the arrival of Andrea (Jordan Todosey), a girl claiming to be his daughter. Jack's routine of bingo and cannibalism is severely hampered when his past returns to haunt him as Andrea is kidnapped by men intent on killing him. With a history of murder to reference, Jack heads out on a bloody rampage of revenge and redemption.

Thrust forward by a force of nature performance which matches Rollins explosive onstage energy, HE NEVER DIED is a singular experience that is a weird and wonderful joy to watch.

After the film Rollins and director Jason Krawczyk will join Shepard Fairey in conversation in what is bound to be one of the most entertaining Q&A's hosted on the Beyond Fest stage.

On Friday October 9th, Beyond Fest is proud to host the West Coast Premiere and hometown throw down of THE MIND'S EYE: the explosive new film from Joe Begos that garnered him the Best Director Award at Fantastic Fest last week. Not only will Begos, Josh Eithier and Graham Skipper attend the show but synth legend Steve Moore will also perform live on stage before the screening!

Set in a snow covered 1990, THE MIND'S EYE picks up on drifter Zack Connors (Skipper), as he quietly passes through a sleepy New England town. Unfortunately for Zack, Dr. Michael Slovak (a gleefully evil John Speredakos), the leading authority on telekinesis, has other plans, forcefully admitting him into his institute to "help" him control his unique skill. True to form, things do not go as planned for Slovak or anyone who gets in the way of Zack and his mind-melting powers as the film escalates to outrageously gory heights.

With echoes of Cronenberg, Carpenter, Romero, Raimi et al , The Mind's Eye reunites the wolf pack of Almost Human brilliantly and is a quintessential midnight ride into hyper-violent-telekinetic-carnage that is not to be missed!

Doors open at 6:30PM and the shows begin at 7:30PM.

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim
