1980s. Neon lights blur over rain-soaked streets, and film reels flicker on dorm room walls. Sirius Black, a manic, horror fanatic and aristocratic runaway, is obsessed with making the greatest horror film of all time. At Harrowmere Hall, he meets Remus Lupin, chain-smoking artist and beautifully self-destructive who wants nothing at all. Amid midnight horror screenings, underground gigs, blood-red stage lights and the burning glow of cigarette tips, they create something unforgettable-scoring their lives to the scratch of a needle on vinyl, chasing immortality through Super 8 reels. But the best horror films always end in tragedy. And between the fights, the drugs, the reckless, unspoken want, so do they. "It's not real," Remus said as the tapes rolled. Sirius grinned, a cigarette burning between his lips. "No, but it's cinema." It's Dead Poets Society if the poets were punk filmmakers on the verge of losing themselves. Almost Famous, but in a dark academia-meets-grungy underground film scene. Its nostalgia drenched in horror and rock 'n' roll. Teenage obsession all wrapped up in cigarette smoke and flickering VHS static—it's pure fucking cinema.
