More Madness picks, this time from Tim League, founder of Fantastic Fest and the Alamo Drafthouse!

A Town Called Panic

I became a fan of the Belgian TV version of this show since I first heard of it on Twitch. Watch a few of the original language episodes online and this will only marginally prepare you for the manic, surreal adventure that awaits. This stuff is pure brilliance.

Symbol

Japanese TV comedy legend Hitoshi Matsumoto's BIG MAN JAPAN was one of my favorite films from 2 years ago at midnight madness and he's back with more jaw-dropping insanity with SYMBOL. You will never guess where this outlandishly bizarre film will lead.

REC 2

Spanish directors Jaume Balagueró and Paco Plaza blazed onto the scene in 2007 with the knuckle-biting, lo-fi zombie mock-doc REC. I've yet to see the full film, but the operatic trailer literally raised goose-bumps on my arms when I first saw it. I can't wait to check it out.
