CATEGORY H: TRANSPORTATION HORROR

At Category H we know there is nothing more festive than travelling, so why not settle into the holiday spirit with our final late night horror double bill of the year TRANSPORTATION: HIGHWAY HYPNOSIS X TURBULENCE 3: HEAVY METAL, with the short film MAN ON A TRAIN. Featuring the big three forms of transportation, this December 12th, 23:30, at Rio Cinema, take a trip you will never forget… 

We begin on the road to Las Vegas with a very rare screening of the recently restored Highway Hypnosis. A serial killer stalks the highway, seeking his next victim in this troubling trance. An underground queer film in the truest sense of the word, we invite you to ‘take a spin with the freeway killer’ and be put under the spell of director Ken Camp’s unique brand of cinematic hypnosis. 

After a short break, get your rail card ready as we begin the second half of our screening with MAN ON A TRAIN. A four minute short dripping in tension and terror, Man On A Train taps into the terror of solo train travel and the strangers we encounter along the way. 

Then, fasten your seatbelts as we take to the skies for TURBULENCE 3: HEAVY METAL. Released in May of 2001, the third Turbulence film does not require you to have seen the first two. We will join mall goth rocker Slade Craven and his band as they prepare for their final show ever, which they have decided to perform on an airplane while streaming to millions of fans worldwide. However, there is danger afoot for Slade as a satanic cult attempt to hijack the flight for their own nefarious means. Will anyone be able to stop them? 

Back in our screen two home, this Category H will include plenty of surprises and delicious themed drinks. Grab your tickets for the cinematic red eye event of the year, sick bags not provided. 

PLEASE NOTE: Highway Hypnosis is not suitable for viewers with photosensitivity due to flashing lights. Please contact Category H directly on Instagram, @categoryhfilms, for further information about the screening.
