This year’s Q Classic is the second feature directed by Todd Haynes, the Oscar-nominated filmmaker of “Far from Heaven” and “Carol.” A groundbreaking American indie — winner of the Grand Jury Prize at the 1991 Sundance Film Festival — “Poison” was one of the most fervently debated films of the early 1990s and served as a landmark of the New Queer Cinema. A work of immense visual invention, Haynes’ spectacular follow-up to his legendary “Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story” is audacious, disturbing and thrillingly cinematic. Inspired by the writings of Jean Genet, “Poison” deftly interweaves a trio of transgressive tales: “Hero,” shot in mock TV-documentary style, tells a bizarre story of suburban patricide and a miraculous flight from justice; “Horror,” filmed like a delirious ’50s B-movie melodrama, is a gothic tale of a mad sex experiment that unleashes a disfiguring plague; and “Homo” explores the obsessive sexual relationship between two prison inmates.
