ICS is a movie club for lovers of fantasy, science fiction, mystery and horror films. We are open to anyone who wants to have a good time socializing with other people who have the same interest in movies that you do!
The Imaginative Cinema Society meets the last Saturday night of each month at 5:30pm at the Perry Hall Presbyterian Church, located at 8848 Belair Road, Perry Hall (we are an independent group; not church affiliated)
On May 26, 2012: Annual Memorial Day Cookout! *Bring chips, sides & deserts;hotdogs & hamburgers supplied. ICS Founder Dave Willard will be presenting a very historical silent film, "The Blue Bird", directed by Maurice Tourneur. This film was one of the very first to make use of highly stylized fantasy and special effects that greatly influenced numerous other films that came after it. Look forward to a great talk by Mr. Dave Willard.
As always, donations to the club help fund our activities. If you order anything from the Amazon link on this page, a portion of the procedes go toward ICS.
At our April 28th meeting, we discussed some of the latest released movies that people may have seen such as "Cabin in the Woods" (great flick), "The Raven", and various and sundry others. **See Pictures**
Afterward, we voted on & picked the blue ray movie Kuroneko (1968), a Japanese ghost story directed by Kaneto Shindō for viewing. (see trailer)
Kuroneko, meaning black cat in Japanese, followed authentic folklore. Enraged spirits or "onyro", are usually those of women abused or wronged in life, come back for revenge against those who hurt them.
In this case, the two female spirits, made a vow with the underworld to kill and drink the blood of all samurai because they raped, killed them, then burnt down their home.
