Beyond Fest 2023 Announces Full Festival Line-Up

Here is the full festival line-up for Beyond Fest 2023 featuring a screening of The Abyss with James Cameron and tons of premieres.

Beyond Fest 2023 is going down September 26th- October 10th in LA and will feature over 50 screenings, including world premieres, in-person screenings with some big names, and more. Highlights include a 4K screening of The Abyss with James Cameron in attendance, Malcolm McDowell in person for a screening of Caligula: The Ultimate Cut, the NC-17 version of David Cronenberg's film Crash, Guillermo del Toro presenting a 10th-anniversary screening of Pacific Rim, and advance screenings of anticipated films like Totally Killer, The Creator, Toxic Avenger, and Where Evil Lurks. "55 movies across 15 days adds up to a true celebration of the theatrical experience – the very mission at the heart of the American Cinematheque," said American Cinematheque Director of Programming and Creative Grant Moninger. "It is an honor to give back to the incredible film-loving community that supports us year round and the city that was literally built by Cinema."
