Cinematic Void is an insane film party within the intimate space of the
Spielberg Theatre. With a focus on cult films and oddball gems of all
genres, each screening is packed with weirdo clip shows, curated trailer
reels, prize giveaways, and other surprises. Get sucked into the
cinemadness monthly. For our first trips down the rabbit hole, we offer a
demented alternative to romance on Valentine’s Day weekend with two of
the most over-the-top exploitation films ever made. The title character
of THE SINFUL DWARF runs a white slave ring out of the attic of his mom’s house. And if you’re ever at a hospital awaiting an X-RAY and spot former Playboy playmate Barbi Benton, take care to avoid the slasher stalking her.
