Legend of the Seven Bloody Torturers will screen before the feature Must Love Death on Wed, Aug. 19 at 7pm at Toronto’s Bloor Cinema as part of the 4th annual Toronto After Dark Film Festival.
Must Love Death is a horrific romantic comedy that “needs to be seen to be believed . . . a romantic comedy for the sick and twisted” (Film Threat). A winner of the Audience Choice award for Best International Film, Silver, at Montreal’s Fantasia Film Festival, the film recounts the adventures of Norman, a depressed man whose plans for suicide are about to be aided by some all-too-willing psychopatic killers. Perhaps unsurprisingly, it’s German.

Nothing goes together quite like fine wine and torture. Appropriately enough Legend of the 7 Bloody Torturers‘ screening at the Calaveras Film Festival next weekend will take place at the Newsome Hollow Winery in Murphys, California. Learn more about the various fine wines they have on offer here, and get full festival info here.
Calaveras is the Spanish word for skulls. It’s also a county in California made famous by a Mark Twain story about a celebrated jumping frog, which itself is home to the Calaveras International Film Festival, running later this May.
Legend of the Seven Bloody Torturers will screen at the festival on Saturday May 30th at 7pm as part of the After Hours Shorts program.
Why they named it Skulls County is a question the tourist website leaves to the imagination.
