Director | John Antonio Castro


FUNTASTIC MOVIE(S) · “A psychotronic adventure in two evil acts” treats to explore (and celebrate) some of the common features of fantastic cinema (fabulous monsters, futuristic technology,…), with special interest in those fiction movies of psychotronic nature, through the crazy mixture of appropriation material and original footage.

Juan Antonio Castro is a Spanish experimental filmmaker who lives and works in Madrid. Although he has made some fiction works, he prefers explore the boundaries of the film medium and the possibilities of the abstract language. He has made some video poetry’s pieces, but from 2006 he works mostly with appropriation material that sometimes he mixes with original footage.
