Fantastic Fest Adds Last Two Titles

By Richard Whittaker, September 17, 2018, 10:00am, Picture in Picture

Just when Fantastic Fest made us think they'd locked their lineup, here come two late-addition titles for the genre-friendly film festival.

The big news for FF regulars is that director Agnieszka Smoczyńska returns with her second feature, Fugue, a follow-up to her 2016 audience favorite The Lure, which makes its North American premiere.

However, the festival has also added another world premiere, to add to those in waves one, two, and three. The Perfection, the orchestral thriller by Girls regular director Richard Shepard (Dom Hemingway, The Matador. Starring Allison Williams (Girls, Get Out), the script was also written by Shepard, and produced by Miramax.

Fantastic Fest 2018 runs Sept. 20-27. Info and tickets at www.fantasticfest.com.
