Jacob Perlin Presents: Habicat for Humanity

There are no current or future screenings planned for this film.

Stephen King’s tale about a mother-son duo hiding an unusual secret. When they move to a small town in search of new prey, a high-school girl has to fight for her life in this gory (and at times humorous) horror film.

About this series:
Jake Perlin, Artistic and Programming Director of the prestigious NYC arthouse Metrograph, has programmed a series of films about a subject near and dear to his heart- cats. This series runs the gamut, from the family-friendly Disney classic THE CAT FROM OUTER SPACE, to Stephen King’s horror film about a family harboring a strange secret in SLEEPWALKERS. Featuring rare oddities and shorts, as well as a live introduction from Perlin before each film.

“Man was created for the cat’s sake, and his only aim is to feed and comfort the cat. He invented a lot of things only for the cat’s profit. Fisherman, cushions, radiators and the radio, because cat’s love music.”
“I am glad to know why I am on earth.”
“So am I.”
– Alain Resnais’ Je t’aime, je t’aime
