The Grand Illusion Cinema in Seattle present The Lair of the White Worm on 17 January 2025.
“Russell’s compositions are gorgeous to look at, though it’s the deliciousness with which the story unravels that made Lair of the White Worm Russell’s most enjoyable film since his masterpiece Crimes of Passion.” Ed Gonzalez, Slant
“What’s so wonderful about Russell’s quintessential female villain is that she embodies a sense that evil has no gender. It has no feelings. It simply is, and it’s quite fun to get to know it.” April Wolfe, Film Comment. On the same day the cinema also show The Cell by Tarsem Singh. The film is heavily influenced by Russell.
