Description

Please note that this screening is part of the Stranger With My Face Interntational Film Festival 4-7 May, Hobart

THE PEOPLE UNDER THE STAIRS | USA | 1991 | 102 minutes | Dir: Wes Craven | M

When Poindexter - known around the 'hood as "Fool" - (Brandon Adams) breaks into a house, he finds himself trapped by its murderous owners (Everett McGill and Wendy Robie from Twin Peaks). Quickly learning the true nature of the home's homicidal inhabitants, the boy battles against sadistic security devices, befriends an elusive and abused girl, and finally learns the secret of the creatures hidden deep within the house.

"Mr. Craven's screenplay manages to evoke both Treasure Island and The Night of the Living Dead, and plays like a stroll through an amusement park's haunted house. It is full of peculiar noises, floors and walls that suddenly give way, things that jump out of the dark and objects of unmentionable disgustingness that sneak up from behind.

Cinematographer of the film Sandi Sissel will be present for a post-screening Q&A.sandi sissel

SANDI SISSEL - BIO Among Sandi’s numerous Academy Award and Emmy winning documentary credits are Mother Teresa, Jane Goodall: Chimps So Like Us, Blood In The Face, Chicken Ranch (she also co-directed). In addition she has been director of photography on network television, including Young Americans, Night Stalker and The Wonder Years and has many, many cable and TV move credits as director of photography. Sandi served as director of photography on the Academy Award nominated motion picture Salaam Bombay received the Camera D’or at Cannes. She has been 2nd Unit DOP on major films including Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me, Daredevil, Stealing Harvard, Mr. and Mrs. Smith and the Academy Award For Cinematography winning Master and Commander: The Far Side Of The World.
