About:
** Content warning: This film contains violence, drug usage, sexual content, and racial slurs. **
** Zoom Q&A with director Jon Moritsugu on Saturday, May 11 at 7pm! **
Holly (Jenny Woo), Marvin (writer/director Jon Moritsugu), and Katzumi (Moritsugu again) are average Asian-American teenage siblings with not-so-average predilections for backstabbing, kinky sex, and drug-fueled freakouts. Neglected by their parents, the kids turn to outside help (including the scene-stealing Amy Davis, Moritsugus wife and longtime collaborator) in order to escape their bored existence. Naturally, this leads to gory killings, sex tapes, and the most hilarious phone conversations ever captured on 16mm film.
A candy-colored hellscape that feels like an episode of Strangers with Candy that was filmed by Dario Argento during a three-day acid bender, Jon Moritsugus Terminal USA is a crucial piece of 1990s alternative cinemasmart, shocking, and one of the most deranged films to ever be funded by American taxpayers. This is the film Heathers wished it could be.
(Jon Moritsugu, US, 1993, 60 min, in English) |

Accessibility
| |
Ticketing, concessions, cinemas, restrooms, and our public edit lab are located on Northwest Film Forum's ground floor, which is wheelchair accessible. We have a limited number of assistive listening devices available for programs hosted in our larger theater, Cinema 1. These devices are maintained by the Technical Director, and can be requested at the ticketing and concessions counter.
The Forum does NOT have assistive devices for the visually impaired, and is not (yet) a scent-free venue. Our commitment to increasing access for our audiences is ongoing, and we welcome all public input on the subject!
If you have additional specific questions about accessibility at our venue, please contact our Patron Services Manager at maria@nwfilmforum.org
