BADASS Film Festival: Where the Devil Roams

Dark Carnies! Tristan Risk and Burns the Dragon (Live!) & Where the Devil Roams (2023, dir Adams Family (Hellbender), BC Premiere)

The Badass 9 Dark Carnies show starts with live sideshow performances from Burns the Dragon and Tristan Risk (American Mary, The Editor, Ayla, Frankenstein Created Bikers, Amazon Hot Box, Odyssey of the Dead, Reptile House) returning to Vancouver for a rare live performance  after several years in New Zealand!
Where the Devil Roams is a 1930s set body horror  film that follows a family of carnies on a travelling murder spree. It’s Nightmare Alley meets Bonnie and Clyde by way of American Mary & Possessor.

Excellent practical effects bring the shocking gore, the family rock band brings the killer score, and the natural light camera work and effective shifts from colour to black and white helped make the film that deservedly won the award for Best Cinematography recently at Fantasia Fest 2023 (USA, 93m Western Canadian / US premiere).
