Frank Frazetta & Ralph Bakshi’s FIRE AND ICE (1983) w/ Dark Fantasy Animation pre-show

November 1 : 5:15 pm – 6:45 pm

“ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! This is easily one of the best films Ralph Bakshi directed and a perfect animated representation of the artwork of Frank Frazetta… full of grotesque and ruthless creatures, dark violence, sexy and buxom women and epic battles… A classic of fantasy cinema and a classic of animation.” – EuroCultAV

From the director of the original animated THE LORD OF THE RINGS and the illustrator of CONAN THE BARBARIAN… It began as a once-in-a-lifetime collaboration between two of the greatest icons of the fantasy genre: Controversial animator Ralph Bakshi (director of Fritz the Cat, Wizards, and the original The Lord of the Rings) and legendary illustrator Frank Frazetta (creator of the iconic Conan the Barbarian). It became—and remains—one of the most startling animation epics of all time. Experience a world unlike any ever seen, where savage warriors, horrific monsters and luscious maidens battle for the soul of a civilization in a time of good and evil, pleasure and pain, and Fire and Ice. Thanks to Blue Underground’s 4K restoration, this dark fantasy classic has never looked better.

Come out early for a Dark Fantasy Animation pre-show beginning at 4:45 pm.
