The 17th annual Boston Underground Film Festival is set to explode all over the Brattle Theater in Harvard Square on March 25-29.
Opening Night: The fun kicks off on the 25th at 7:30 p.m. with the exciting new flick from the always amazing Astron-6 collective, The Editor, an homage to the brutal Giallo movies of the ’70s and ’80s directed by Adam Brooks and Matthew Kennedy. This will be followed by the restored version of the legendary cult classic Gone With the Pope by the notorious Duke Mitchell.
Closing Night: Goodnight Mommy the debut feature film by Severin Fiala and Veronika Franz, will screen at 8:30 p.m. on the 29th and is a nightmarish vision of familial dread when twin brothers believe their cosmetically altered mother is literally not the woman she used to be.

I first saw The Wound at Hollyshorts earlier this year when it played as part of the horror block.
When I reviewed the short for Film Radar at the time I was impressed with the film’s surrealism, as well as its unconventional drama.
Not only was "The Wound" my favorite film that evening, but it is also one of the best horror films I have seen all year, expertly combining humor, terror, and a real sense of the strange to create an experience that is both engrossing as well as totally gross.
The Wound has gone on to become one of the most lauded short horror films of the year. It had its world premier at Cinequest, and recently won best short at the Rhode Island International Horror Festival. Both are Oscar qualifying events. Other large festivals
