SFIFF50: Late Shows, International Horror

This year, the 50th San Francisco International Film Festival's annual
Late Show spotlight focuses on international horror, a rich and
recently burgeoning genre that is certainly worth staying up late
for.

The first late show plays on Friday, April 27 at 10:45 pm at the
Sundance Cinemas Kabuki. The four films are Jonathan King's BLACK
SHEEP, a witty and gory tale from New Zealand about the havoc that
ensues when genetically engineered sheep are introduced onto a family
farm (April 27, 10:45 pm, Kabuki); Takeshi Furusawa's flick GHOST
TRAIN, a missing-person thriller incorporating the best of the best
from the J-horror genre (April 28, 11:45 pm, Kabuki); Roar Uthaug's
spectacularly scary COLD PREY, a scenic Norwegian film about five
snowboarders and an axe-wielding assassin (Friday, May 4, Midnight,
Kabuki); and Dan Bush, David Bruckner and Jacob Gentry's tripartite
THE SIGNAL, a wickedly funny and gruesome satire of media and modern
technology (May 5, 10 pm, Kabuki).

The Late Show spotlight is sponsored by Stella Artois, and Late Show
passes include access to the Sella Artois Lounge with complimentary
beer thirty minutes prior to each Late Show screening. For tickets and
