Description
Presented in collaboration with Horror Rama, our ambitious survey of all five Fantômas films with new scores performed live continues.
Inspector Juve and journalist Jérôme Fandor close in on the elusive Fantômas, but cinema’s first great supervillain is always one step ahead. In the second chapter of Louis Feuillade’s legendary serial, the master criminal expands his reign of terror with daring robberies, ingenious disguises, deadly traps, and one of silent cinema’s most memorable train heists.
From freight yards and secret hideouts to venomous snakes and the speeding Simplon Express, Juve vs. Fantômas raises the stakes with bigger action, greater suspense, and the relentless cat-and-mouse game that helped define the modern thriller.
Composer Seth Boustead performs a brand-new original score live, commissioned by Access Contemporary Music exclusively for this screening.
