MASTERS OF HORROR: CIGARETTE BURNS

John Carpenter
USA 2005
56 min
V'06

Kirby Sweetman is a man who runs a small cinema and who hunts down rare film prints as a sideline. In financial trouble, Kirby takes a job from millionaire Bellinger, who collects extreme, obscure material, but sets Kirby a real challenge in trying to track down an extant print of La Fin absolue du monde, a film that was notoriously responsible for causing frenzied violence and killing at its only known screening. Recalling some themes from Carpenter's In The Mouth Of Madness, notably the connection between creativity and mental states, Cigarette Burns deals with Kirby's increasingly dangerous quest, as he digs into the mystery of the film, and bit by bit ends up affected by its influence. (Daniel Etherington)
