Getting this in under the wire, here’s the full lineup of the Cucalorus Film Festival, the indie festival that runs in Wilmington, NC every year, this year taking place Nov. 8-11. Another “not quite underground” festival that I like to feature, they’re actually running a couple of films that I have reviews up for, which I’ll be noting in the list below. Some of these films have also had theatrical runs, or are in their runs now, including a couple from the underground friendly distributor Kino International (Old Joy, Psychopathia Sexualis).

Here’s the drill: Features first, shorts after that. It’s a very big list, so big in fact I think I’m going to be lazy and not write up my usual descriptions of the movies. Most of them, their titles and/or filmmakers speak for themselves.
