Writer/director/producer William Malone’s Parasomnia is a most unusual, visually enthralling horror film, so it’s fitting that the movie was the centerpiece of an unusual, visually enthralling event benefitting the American Cinematheque, which hosted the event at the Egyptian Theatre, and the Museum of Contemporary Art (Moca) in Los Angeles. The evening was a tribute to the work of the late Polish artist Zdzislaw Beksinski (pronounced Boo-shin-ski), whose paintings inspired much of Malone’s Parasomnia imagery; the film credits Beksinski with “conceptual art.”

Before Parasomnia (pictured) was screened, Richard Elfman (director of Forbidden Zone, Shrunken Heads and Modern Vampires) moderated a Q&A panel with Malone and fellow horrormakers Wes Craven, Mick Garris, Stuart Gordon and Tobe Hooper in a discussion of the influence of art on their filmmaking, followed by a slide show and discussion of Beksinski’s work. Fango caught up with the filmmakers afterward for some one-on-one insights. »
