from the Brooklyn Horror Film Festival catalogue:

On a drunken downward spiral following a breakup and the recent death of his father, Sam’s troubles only multiply when he meets the enigmatic Anna who just might be a vampire. An essential NYC vampire film, this paranoid modern classic is just as entrancing as it was in 1995 when it took the indie scene by the throat. Since then, director and star Larry Fessenden has continued to leave his distinct mark on the horror industry both behind the camera and in countless memorable performances in front. His independent production company Glass Eye Pix has been an invaluable birthing ground for talent such as Ti West, Kelly Reichardt, Mickey Keating and Jenn Wexler. To honor his enormous and indelible contributions, it is Brooklyn Horror’s privilege and duty to name Larry Fessenden this year’s recipient of the Leviathan Award. This special screening of Habit will be followed by an award presentation and Q&A moderated by Jenn Wexler. -Joseph Hernandez

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: 25 years ago, legendary director Martin Scorsese (KILLERS OF THE FLOWER MOON) reteamed with screenwriter Paul Schrader (TAXI DRIVER, RAGING BULL) for one of their most compelling gems of their storied careers—BRINGING OUT THE DEAD. Nicolas Cage is Frank Pierce, a paramedic on the brink of madness. Patricia Arquette is the daughter of a man Frank tried to save. Together, they’ll need to confront the ghosts of the past to discover redemption among the living. The powerhouse supporting cast includes John Goodman, Ving Rhames, Marc Anthony and Tom Sizemore. Featuring all-new interviews with Scorsese and Cage, this must-have limited-edition Paramount Presents marks the movie’s debut on both Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD, remastered from a new transfer of the original camera negative.

“Liberty Kid elevates that woeful genre, the 9/11 movie, by keeping a ‘Wire’-worthy ear to the street talk of south Williamsburg and maintaining a shrewd balance of the personal and the political… an uncommonly acute, deftly played drama of the New York working class.”
—THE VILLAGE VOICE

“There’s not a single wrong note in “Liberty Kid,” Ilya Chaiken’s poignant drama.
Tender, wise and deceptively low-key… everything about this film feels effortless.”
‘Critic’s Pick’
