Writer/director Jeremy Saulnier (Murder Party, Blue Ruin) has won all sorts of acclaim for his latest thriller Green Room, which stars Imogen Poots, Anton Yelchin, and the impossibly awesome Patrick Stewart. If you live in or around the Chicago area, you can win a chance to see the flick on the big screen next month! Here’s the icing on this tasty cinematic cake: Saulnier will take part in a nifty Q&A after the screening. Those of us who don’t live in Chicago are probably feeling a little jealous right now.
From the Press Release:
Enter to win a pass for two to the Q&A screening of GREEN ROOM on Tuesday, April 5 in Chicago. The screening will be followed by a Q&A with Writer/Director Jeremy Saulnier!
Winners will be notified via e-mail by Friday, April 1.
GREEN ROOM is a brilliantly crafted and wickedly fun horror-thriller starring Patrick Stewart as a diabolical club owner who squares off against an unsuspecting but resilient young punk band.
Down on their luck punk rockers The Ain’t Rights are finishing up a long and unsuccessful tour, and are about to call it quits when they get an unexpected booking at an isolated, run-down club deep in the backwoods of Oregon. What seems merely to be a third-rate gig escalates into something much more sinister when they witness an act of violence backstage that they weren’t meant to see. Now trapped backstage, they must face off against the club’s depraved owner, Darcy Banker (Stewart), a man who will do anything to protect the secrets of his nefarious enterprise. But while Darcy and his henchmen think the band will be easy to get rid of, The Ain’t Rights prove themselves much more cunning and capable than anyone expected, turning the tables on their unsuspecting captors and setting the stage for the ultimate life-or-death showdown.
Intense, emotional, and ingeniously twisted, Green Room is genre filmmaking at its best and most original. Saulnier continues to build his reputation as one of the most exciting and distinctive directors working today, with a movie that’s completely different from his previous, highly acclaimed Blue Ruin, but which is just as risk-taking and even more full of twists. The entire cast deliver first-rate performances, but Patrick Stewart gives a transformative and brilliantly devious turn as Darcy—elegant yet lethal, droll yet terrifying, Stewart makes the film simply unforgettable.
