Fucktoys

DATE: Thursday, August 14
TIME: 7:00PM
VENUE: Cinema Paradiso Hollywood

DIRECTOR & STAR ANNAPURNA SRIRAM WILL BE IN ATTENDANCE TO INTRODUCE THE FILM AND PARTICIPATE IN A Q&A.

In this riotously campy, pastel-drenched horror comedy, part-time sex worker and full-time disaster magnet AP is convinced she’s cursed—and the universe might actually agree. When a deranged tarot reading reveals that the only way to break her bad luck is with a lamb sacrifice and $1,000, AP sets off on a delirious odyssey through Trashtown, USA—a depraved, glitter-splattered hellscape of fetish cops, sleazy strip joints, and unholy rituals.

With her ride-or-die, nonbinary ex-lover-turned-bestie Danni (Sadie Scott) by her side, AP plunges into a candy-colored fever dream of sex, sorcery, and self-discovery. As their journey spirals into realms stranger and stickier than either of them bargained for, the line between liberation and damnation gets deliciously blurry.

A feral fusion of early John Waters filth and Gregg Araki nihilism, FUCKTOYS marks a fearless debut from writer-director-star Annapurna Sriram. Shot on sumptuous 16mm, bursting with kink, attitude, and bisexual lighting, this unhinged vision is both a love letter to outsiders and a battle cry against the beige. Blasphemous, bold, and wickedly fun—FUCKTOYS is the cult classic you didn’t know you were cursed without.
