Every year the population of sleepy Lake Victoria explodes from 5,000 to 50,000 for Spring Break; a riot of sun and drunken fun. But this year, there’s something more to worry about than hangovers and complaints from local old timers; A new type of terror is about to be cut loose on Lake Victoria. After a sudden underwater tremor sets free scores of the prehistoric man-eating fish, an unlikely group of strangers must band together to stop themselves from becoming fish food for the area’s new razor-toothed residents.

As the bass guitarist for a garage-rock band, Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera) has never had trouble getting a girlfriend; usually, the problem is getting rid of them.

“Based on a true story of a hermit who lived for forty years in the Tennessee woods. Felix Bush decides it is time to plan his funeral. But his funeral will not be any old macabre occasion. Organized by a local undertaker played by Bill Murray and his sidekick played by Lucas Black, the funeral will be more party than memorial and an event to which anyone and everyone will be invited and at which Bush will reveal a long kept secret.”

Acclaimed Danish director Nicolas Winding Refn (Bronson, The Pusher Trilogy) brings us this majestic and brutal arthouse Viking epic. For untold years, the fearsome warrior known only as One Eye (Mikkelsen, Casino RoyaleÂ’s bad guy and RefnÂ’s frequent collaborator) has been a prisoner forced to fight all challengers. He has defeated everyone he’s encountered, but is treated more like a fighting dog than a champion. The only person he has any relationship with is the young boy who brings him food and water daily. He takes the boy along with him when he eventually escapes and they quickly run across a new force sweeping the countryside and displacing the society’s leaders: Christians. Having no other prospects, One Eye joins up with a band of pilgrims who are setting off to liberate Jerusalem from the heathens – but the crew gets disastrously lost and ends up in a ‘new worldÂ’ that is utterly unfamiliar and hostile. A remarkable film that seems at once swathed in myth and mystery yet firmly rooted in the blood and guts of reality, VALHALLA RISING – and especially the outstanding performance of Mikkelsen as the completely mute One Eye – will entrance you and have you chomping at the bit to see more from this powerful creative team.

For a variety of reasons I have decided to move the mailing list to a Google Group.

IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TO RECEIVE THE WEEKLY NEWSLETTER BY EMAIL YOU MUST SUBSCRIBE TO THE NEW LIST!

If you are still interested in the club, but aren’t interested in the email newsletter, there are several ways to keep track of us:

• RSS Feed
• iCal Calendar
• Google Calendar
• Twitter

Incidentally, Twitter is a great way to receive “same day” updates about the club. For instance, a few weeks ago a power outage took out the Kendall Square Cinema on Sunday and we had to cancel the club’s meeting, and Twitter was one of the primary ways to communicate this. The week of “Inception” the film sold out early, but anyone reading our twitter feed knew that several club members who didn’t get tickets went to see “Despicable Me” and the two groups met up afterwards. Twitter allows you to receive these updates on ANY cell phone which has SMS (“Text Message”) support.

Hope to see you at a Sunday soon!

P.S. I know Murphy’s Law well, so in case there is any trouble getting the newsletter out to the new group, I’ll mention that we’ll be seeing “Valhalla Rising” this Sunday at the Brattle @ 7:30pm. :) ~
