FrightFest

Quick question: my son has bought three festival passes for us on his nutickets account, but in his MyAccount ticket list there is just a Download option next to them and not a 'Transfer Tickets' option as previously. Are we missing something/being stupid?

Finally managed to secure our three tickets after an hour of trying, via my son. :roll: Horrible. Same thing re. payment that others have reported here, so I told him to check his email, I was just about to pay for H25-H27 as well - I will release them now, so they should show up: stand by. Good luc...

I really enjoyed this too. What I didn’t particularly like, and thought unnecessary (possibly even a little lazy) was the association between the severity of Shelly’s disfigurement and her madness/monstrosity. It seemed rather old school, and it perhaps would have been more interesting if poor Shell...

Chris - I couldn’t have put it better. I really wanted to like this, I did laugh a bit at first and - as you say - it looked fabulous. But the joke wore thin fast, and it seemed to veer from parody to genuine contempt for the targets of its humour. Sucked the fun out of it. I can’t see the US embrac...

My pick... 1. One Cut of the Dead 2. Ravers 3. Upgrade 4. Terrified 5. If I’m allowed… the short film showcase 3 on Monday was particularly strong, with standouts including ‘Baghead’ the bizarre and hilarious ‘Right Place, Wrong Tim’ and ‘Puppet Master’ - with ‘Marta’ in Sunday’s showcase absolutely...

I was a newbie last year, and really enjoyed the Q&As afterwards. It was also an opportunity to say hello to the filmmakers, all be it briefly, in the cinema straight after and let them know you enjoyed the movie and perhaps what you thought. I met and spoke to far fewer cast and filmmakers this yea...

You know you'll miss it

Yes indeed.

Although I’ll be announced every film at home in this way from now on.

Hi all, Missing glasses in case... We’re sitting in row H in the Arrow screen. On Saturday evening, we think somebody accidentally picked up a black “Climax“ tote bag, easily done, and inside was a bar of chocolate and, more importantly, my prescription dark glasses in a blue/green hard Specsavers c...

I don't know if this is useful to anyone else but I've built a mobile-friendly FF schedule that condenses the wisdom of the full programme onto a single, fairly small, web page. It should display pretty well on mobile phones. http://frightfest.bythelens.org Cheers Brilliant - thank you - this works...

Back by popular demand (well, one person asked after it anyway!)... okay, back by demand, here's my usual interactive scheduler with print functionality:

Day pass holders: http://benj.com/ff/horror

Great - thank you very much!

Hi, myself and two sons are in H12-H14 - almost the same seat as last year, purely by chance. It'll be my second year after taking the plunge (with one son) in 2017. All those years waiting to be able to watch films with them, and now we're at FF together. Can't wait!

So.… is it download tickets I go to? Please tell me what you did and how it works. I will owe you a coffee/beer/soft drink - delete as appropriate. I do not want to mess this up! Hi Sue, I've just looked: go to MyAccount on the ticketing site (top right), then you'll see 'My Tickets' listed, then c...

It's terrifying, seeing the seats blinking off... I managed to get my three at the third attempt. And as you say, it was all over in the blink of an eye. Thanks for the info on how to share.

Thanks for your help, folks. Three festival passes secured - very exciting, attending with my two sons for the first time. Can't wait!

Still finding my feet... which FF 2018 screen will be the IMAX - the Arrow Video Screen?
