Our selection for June is The Invitation, a psychological thriller by Karyn Kusama (Girlfight, Jennifer's Body) starring Logan Marshall-Green, Tammy Blanchard and Michiel Huisman.
"So sweat-inducingly tense that I could only watch it through laced fingers." - Village Voice
In this taut psychological thriller by Karyn Kusama (Girlfight, Jennifer's Body), the tension is palpable when Will (Logan Marshall-Green, Prometheus) shows up to a dinner party hosted by his ex-wife (Tammy Blanchard, Into the Woods) and new husband David (Michiel Huisman, Game of Thrones). The estranged divorcee's tragic past haunst an equally eerie present; amid Eden's suspicious behavior and her mysterioius house guets, Will becomes convincced that his invitation was extended with a hidden agenda. Unfolding over one dark evening in the Hollywood Hills, The Invitation blurs layers of mounting paranoia, mystery, and horror until both Will - and the audience - are usure what threats are real or imagined.
All proceeds go towards the Vidiots Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)3 organization dedicated to the cinematic and media arts in the form of preserving and protecting our collection of over 50,000 rare and classic VHS, DVD and Blu-Ray titles.
