About this event
Some legends really bite. Ken Russell season continues at The Frida, as we are presenting a late night 0ne-off of The Lair of the White Worm on September 18th! This deliriously unhinged adaptation of Bram Stoker’s final novel follows a young archaeologist who uncovers the skull of a mythical serpent. Of course, it awakens an ancient evil and its seductive priestess, Lady Sylvia Marsh. That old story! Starring Amanda Donohoe, Hugh Grant, Peter Capaldi, Catherine Oxenberg, and Sammi Davis, The Lair of the White Worm is Ken Russell at his most gloriously deranged, and that’s really saying something! British folk horror, pagan mythology, sexual decadence, surrealist imagery, pitch-black comedy…it’s the perfect Friday night flick!
