The Demon’s Rook:  A boy named Roscoe is visited by a strange creature known as Dimwos. By day, Roscoe plays with his best friend Eva. By night, he obsessively draws pictures of his mysterious visitor. All is well, until the night a ghostly light shines through Roscoe’s window, luring him into the woods, and ultimately into a portal to another dimension where Dimwos resides. In an underworld of foggy caverns and endless darkness, Dimwos, the reclusive wizard monk from an ancient race of demons, adopts Roscoe as a pupil and raises him into manhood, revealing to him many secrets. Though, there is one dark secret that Dimwos keeps from his bearded apprentice. Roscoe eventually discovers what his master kept from him. Enraged, he unwittingly unleashes three malevolent demons from their ancient prison.

The Visitor:  In this unforgettable assault on reality – restored and presented uncut theatrically for the first time ever in the U.S. – legendary Hollywood director/actor John Huston (The Maltese Falcon; Treasure Of The Sierra Madre) stars as an intergalactic warrior who joins a cosmic Christ figure in battle against a demonic 8-year-old girl, and her pet hawk, while the fate of the universe hangs in the balance. Multi-dimensional warfare, pre-adolescent profanity and brutal avian attacks combine to transport the viewer to a state unlike anything they’ve experienced… somewhere between Hell, the darkest reaches of outer space, and Atlanta, GA . It’s the most ambitious of all ’70s psychedelic mindwarps!

The Guild Cinema is located at 3405 Central Avenue NE, in the Nob Hill area.
