The 6th annual Sydney Underground Film Festival is taking over all three screens of the Factory Theatre for a blow-out four-day event on Sept. 6-9.

Making it’s World Premiere at the fest on the 8th is the highly anticipated President Wolfman, the latest “green movie” by director Mike Davis that he’s cobbled together from public domain footage and feature films and set to an outrageous new soundtrack. The film looks like it promises to be a rollicking good time.

Other highlights of the fest include Guy Maddin‘s latest trippy film noir, Keyhole, about a mobster revisiting his homestead’s old memories; Bob Ray‘s documentary about Austin, Texas’ homegrown Total Badass; Bobcat Goldthwait’s media takedown God Bless America; Michal Kosakowski’s underground murder fantasy documentary hit Zero Killed; Richard Griffin’s funky The Disco Exorcist; and more.

Some of the extra special events of the fest include Tobe Hooper’s long-lost and almost forgotten first film Eggshells; and a retrospective of the mind-blowing avant-garde short films by late British filmmaking icon Jeff Keen.

There’s also tons of short film programs including gross-out flicks like Greg Hanson‘s Sink Hole; experimental animation by Leslie Supnet (Gains + Losses) and Don Hertzfeldt (It’s Such a Beautiful Day); and I for NDN by Canadian filmmaking super-team Clint Enns and Darryl Nepinak.

SUFF is also featuring lots of local talent with a special block of Sydney-produced short films on the 9th as well as feature films like Nick Danger’s Sick. Plus, there will be a special screening of short films by the notorious Australian Internet sensation MrDoodleburger, who will be making his first ever live appearance.

And all that is just scratching the surface of all the gems laid out in the SUFF lineup, which you can view in full below. For more info, please visit the official Sydney Underground Film Festival website.
