Burnt out on the same menu of Wonka/Aquaman/etc. currently playing at the local cineplex? Returning guest and known cinephile Stephanie Sack highlights non-traditional January options, specifically focused on the Music Box Theatre’s “Giallo January”:

January 1 — House of Psychotic Women
January 8 — Closed Circuit
January 13 — Blow Out
January 15 — The Strangler
January 20 — Knife and Heart (Playing at the Leather Archives & Museum)
January 22 — Torso

We also talk about January cinema happenings at the U of C campus and the Gene Siskel Film Center. In short, there’s no need to see “Anyone But You” for your next movie outing.
