Every now and then, C-U Blogfidential<\/strong> will highlight limited-run screenings in the area which often receive little to no press in traditional news outlets. The following events are “coming soon” in October; please support this diverse film programming in our community by attending and spreading the word. Multiplexes and television sets are no substitute for a true cinema experience!<\/em><\/p>\n

This outing, we drop you right into the action as the forecast for local movie-watching events heats up with equal waves of politics, intrigue, social commentary, romance, and of course, monsters!<\/p>\n

One last time, Jason Butler<\/strong> takes over Mike ‘n’ Molly’s, 105 N. Market St., Champaign, IL<\/strong>, to show his recent output before heading off to the Pacific Northwest later this week. On Sunday, October 15, 9 p.m.<\/strong> (that would be tonight), JB will play in succession TEETH OF THE BOTTLE, ADVENTURES OF THE SCREAMING APE PART 1<\/strong>, and WEREWOLF CEMETERY EPISODE I<\/strong>. On Monday, October 16, 9 p.m.<\/strong> (that would be tomorrow night), he perpetuates the Brainsmart-ness with THORAXX II, SCREAMING APE PART 2<\/strong>, and WEREWOLF CEMETERY EPISODE II<\/strong>. Admission will be a measly $3 each night. Be there or risk the wrath of Murph’s M’n’M Nation.<\/p>\n

Also, THE UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS VS. A MUMMY<\/strong> stalks again just in time for All Hallow’s Eve. Head for the auditorum of the Natural History Building<\/strong> on the University of Illinois quad<\/strong> on Friday, October 27, 8 p.m.<\/strong> Admission is free; pencil tricks and potato shooters\u00a0for ROCKY HORROR<\/strong>-style shenanigans are optional.<\/p>\n

Continuing at Boardman’s Art Theatre, 126 W. Church St., Champaign, IL<\/strong>, through Thursday, October 19<\/strong>, is the Tournees French Film Festival<\/strong>, which kicked off this past Friday with the Kino International release LITTLE JERUSALEM<\/strong>, directed by Karin Albou<\/strong>.

The Illinois Disciples Foundation, 610 E. Springfield, Ave., Champaign, IL<\/strong>, has two presentations left in its Human Rights Film Series<\/strong> for the fall semester. Launched in 2003, the bi-annual program brings international social issues to the public’s attention through the screening and discussion of pertinent documentaries.
