Cult film programmers Glue Gun present a classic of 60s psychotronic cinema at The Rose Hill

After barely escaping a horrific car accident that claimed the lives of her two companions, Mary moves to Salt Lake City, hoping for a fresh start. But plagued by visions of a silent, menacing figure and feeling increasingly disconnected from reality, she begins to unravel. Is any of this really happening? And why is she inexorably drawn to the abandoned carnival on the shores of the Great Salt Lake?

An uncanny masterpiece of low-budget horror, Carnival of Souls' dreamlike atmosphere and dark Americana prefigure the work of directors like David Lynch.

“Watch Carnival of Souls and wonder about its influence on others. Think about Night of the Living Dead, Blue Velvet and Eraserhead.” - Michael J. Weldon, The Psychotronic Video Guide
