Located at Moore Park's Entertainment Quarter, this year's lineup is bursting with great titles across a wide variety of genres. Whether you're an action fan, feel like a laugh or need a heartwarming romance to cuddle up close to, the team at Mov'In Bed have got you covered.
Below, we've picked out five of our favourites from the jam-packed program. Happy viewing.
ACTION: KILL BILL VOLUME 1 & 2
Two movies means twice the action in this blood-spattered double bill from legendary director Quentin Tarantino. Join Uma Thurman's deadly assassin, a ruthless killer known as The Bride, on what the movie advertisements referred to as "a roaring rampage of revenge". Over the course of more than four hours, our sword-swinging protagonist cuts down dozens of enemies on her way to her final target. The dialogue is stellar, the choreography intense, the music as cool as in any film of the past 20 years. Oh, and the cast? Phenomenal. Put simply, Kill Bill is the work of a master at his brilliant best.
HORROR: HAPPY DEATH DAY
Think Groundhog Day, except Bill Murray keeps getting brutally murdered. That's the basic premise of Happy Death Day, an ingenious new horror flick from the producer of Get Out, Insidious and Paranormal Activity. Jessica Rothe plays an unfortunate college student forced to relive the same day again and again — a day that ends with her being killed by a masked assailant. Find the killer, break the cycle — or at least, that's the plan. Mixing scares with a healthy dose of black comedy, Happy Death Day is perfect if you like movies like Scream or Drag Me to Hell.
ROMCOM: THE BIG SICK
One of the surprise hits of the year, The Big Sick is an utter delight and one of our absolutely favourite films on the Mov'In Bed program. Based on the experiences of its writer and star, the film follows aspiring Chicago comedian Kumail Nanjiani and his fledgling relationship with Emily (Zoe Kazan). There are two complications. Firstly, Kumail's family want him to marry a nice Pakistani girl. Secondly, Emily is soon struck down by a mysterious illness that leaves her in a coma. A romcom unlike any other, The Big Sick is funny, heartfelt and never ceases to surprise. See it with someone you love.
COMEDY: GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2
It has been quite the fun year for Marvel movies — and before Thor: Ragnarok showered cinema-goers with offbeat antics, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 got there first. A sequel to 2014's superhero space effort, it's a case of keeping the intergalactic adventure going as Star-Lord (Chris Pratt), Gamora (Zoe Saldana), Drax the Destroyer (Dave Bautista), Rocket Raccoon (Bradley Cooper) and Groot (Vin Diesel) try to save the universe, again. This time, they've got some daddy issues to deal with in the form of Kurt Russell, but the series' inability to take itself too seriously and ace '70s soundtrack remain. It's the perfect cure for comic book movie fatigue, so gather the gang.
DRAMA: EYES WIDE SHUT
An iconic filmmaker's last-ever movie. A real-life Hollywood duo diving into a tale of marital disharmony. A film that holds the Guinness World Record for the longest continuous shoot. There's much that intrigues about Stanley Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut; the film took a whopping 400 days to make, had been on the director's slate since the late '60s and stars Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman back when they were the biggest couple in the world. And, that's all before even contemplating the film's story. Cruise and Kidman play a married couple rocked by infidelity and one particularly wild night, in an erotic drama that's provocative, probing and has to be seen to be believed.
