Never before released theatrically in the States, Altered Innocence has restored the feverish cult film Arrebato (Rapture) and is bringing it to New York and Los Angeles theaters (among others) this October, Bloody Disgusting exclusively learned a few weeks back.
Check out the official trailer below, first shared by Indiewire earlier today, and we’re also exclusively debuting the 4K restoration’s poster art today. Find that underneath the trailer!
The poster comes courtesy of Sister Hyde Design.
“Arrebato, a dimension-shattering blend of heroin, sex, and Super-8, is the final word on cinemania,” hypes the press release. “This towering feat of counterculture was the final feature of Spanish cult filmmaker and movie poster designer Iván Zulueta.”

In the film…
“Horror movie director José is adrift in a sea of doubt and drugs. As his belated second feature nears completion, his reclusive bubble is popped by two events: a sudden reappearance from an ex-girlfriend and a package from past acquaintance Pedro: a reel of Super-8 film, an audiotape, and a door key. From there, the boundaries of time, space, and sexuality are erased as José is once more sucked into Pedro’s vampiric orbit. Together, they attempt the ultimate hallucinogenic catharsis through a moebius strip of filming and being filmed.”
Oscar winner Pedro Almodóvar (Talk to Her, Volver, The Skin I Live In) calls Arrebato a “total modern classic.”
