VENUE: Digital Screening Room

Prepare yourself for an exploration of one of the most contentious, influential, and groundbreaking horror satires to emerge from the 1980s! Brian Yuzna’s mesmerizing creation, SOCIETY, delved into the depths of surreality, fearlessly exposing the shocking and sexually explicit acts perpetrated by the affluent upon the less fortunate. Yet, the film’s origins and original screenplay remained shrouded in mystery. That is, until screenwriter Zeph E. Daniel, formerly known as Woody Keith, emerged from his closet of dark secrets. He revealed the incredible true story behind this morbid, subversive masterpiece — based on real-life events as horrific and outrageous as the film itself. In this case, truth and fiction are indistinguishably intertwined.
