DARK STAR: H.R. GIGER’S WORLD

In Dark Star: H.R. Giger’s World, the artist behind some of the most well-known cinematic imagery is exposed to the light of day. H.R. Giger’s art is recognizable to anyone familiar with the Alien films. A disquieting landscape of nightmares and darkness and strangely alluring and repellent creatures populate his work, which has gained a devout following. In this documentary the man steps from the shadows and reveals the intention behind his visceral work, giving us a peek into a mind capable of creating fascinating and macabre art.
