FrightFest

Been queing since 9 05 and still showing less than 45 min wait ! Can't get in to buy anything !

Flim 4 - D21

Come and say hello ! I didn't really have chatty neighbours last year....

We have a robust ticketing solution in place that we feel confident will not result in the meltdown that occurred last year. We will be using an online ticketing company who handle much larger events than FrightFest. In July, when FrightFesters go to get tickets, they will be placed in an online qu...

For all the bitching and moaning we processed over 600 individual purchases of festival and day passes in various combinations. Many many single pass sales plus one ten ticket sale, several for nine and heaps for fives and four fans sitting together. Thanks to all for your patience, we got there in...

Ok, tickets bought! I used an iPad, joined the queue at 11:58 and it took just over an hour. When I selected my screen (horror) it actually said 'film4' in the drop down box. So I selected Arrow then reselected horror after. That worked fine. Thanks to the person who spotted this one earlier! I als...

How long do I give the circle of death to actually work?

Also another sure fire, Eli Roth's KNOCK KNOCK has now got a June 26th Release Date set. So that's vetoed. What about FF alumni Johannes Roberts' new one THE OTHER SIDE OF THE DOOR or old FF regular Adam Mason's new found footage home invasion riff HANGMAN. Having just come out of KNOCK KNOCK I can...

This is a great post and debate starter. I would agree with much of it – it was particularly disappointing not to have It Follows at Frightfest – if it was ready for LFF, it was ready for FF. My immediate thoughts are that this is very much bound up in what sort of festival FF perceives itself to be...

I'm in the Arrow Screen and I thought the atmosphere lifted yesterday afternoon (pretty much after Green Inferno and Dead Snow 2) Agree with everything said on this thread so far - but it is early days. It's not The Empire and there isn't the same atmosphere as The Empire, but I'm sure FF at the Vue...

Maybe Disco screens should be General Admission and have it so festival and day pass holders don't need a separate ticket. Agree about missing films - currently don't have a ticket for Preservation and not sure I will physically be able to get one - which is madness because the auditorium I'm sure w...

(Not in order)

The Green Inferno
Starry Eyes
The Babadook
Among The Living
Coherence

All a bit harsh I think - Sin City was a great film - no idea what the second film will be like but I'm looking forward to finding out (maybe I'm the only one..) If the hard words are because it's not a horror film then fair enough, but considering that last years equivalent of this was RIPD then yo...

Quick question for my fellow screen 6 'ers...

Anyone planning to see Sin City 2 at 6.15 and then Coherence in Disco 2 at 8.30 ? Is it do-able in terms of there being enough time between the screenings?

Just a quick word of thanks to Vue and the staff. After all the issues at the weekend, my Frightfest experience was consisting of an individual day pass for each of the five days. I just went to pick them up and enquired if there were any Festival passes left – there were. There was no problem in re...

Got what I needed too. All worked very smoothly - many thanks to Ian and Vue for sorting this out.

Roll on August 21st!
