FrightFest

Good call, mediocre reviews coming out of Boston *but* would be worth just to see this immense poster up in the foyer

First rule of FrightFest: *do* tell everyone.

Second: ATTEND SLEEPER QUEUE

Enjoy feeps!

Great news huh? Nice to see the price hasn't increased too much! I'll be in the sleeper queue [celebrating my 21st birthday on the 29th] from about 8pm. It's gonna be an absolute blast as it always is. And yet another great film this year [I've been told The Conjuring is this years Sinister]. Roll o...

Mitch here, doing the roundups again. This time coming fresh from a chat with a friend that just got back from Cannes [sadly not the FrightFest guys, they're keeping tight lipped as ever]. Here are a few titles they mentioned: Last Days On Mars A sci-fi zombie movie. Word of mouth is pretty grand QY...

Hmmmm good question. Unlike the last 3 years I have literally no idea over the big e-ticket guest. I think with Hatchet III floating around the block, Mr Green is a dead cert (will be great to spill a beer with him again), and with Joe's KNIGHTS OF BADASSDOM in an existential limbo- maybe a gala scr...

How'z it hangin folks.Attended my first Frightfest in Glasgow this year and i loved it.Changed my holidays and booked a room for 6 nights so i hope i get a pass.Hope to meet some FB friends who are attending and meet new ones.See you end of August. 8) Hey Elmstttam, welcome to the FrightFest family...

Quick round of today's film spotlights in Postcards from Cannes by Alan Territorial Produced by the director of Wolf Creek & Rogue and directed by Matthew Holmes http://www.dreadcentral.com/img/news/may13/territorial-poster.jpg STALLED OwsGAypEh1o Looks fun. The Demon's Rook B3ILJvfXfMw I don't ...

@DJBenz I too have heard that scathing review, then contra I've also read some nice ones- a trusty friend at BloodyDisgusting for one. So, who knows. [On a side track of not liking much vampiric output, do look out for Byzantium later this year, and try and source out Midnight Son on DVD, a very int...

Hey peeps, one more that popped into my radar today. Remember this is pure speculation, so I hope I'm not ruining anyone's "going in blind" hopes [if so, I apologise, but this is also probably the wrong forum topic to be in] KISS OF THE DAMNED 5X82-yAQyME I know, I know, let's face if we'r...

The Dead II: India is pretty much a dead cert (may I take this moment in opportune word choice, for us to all remember back to the glory that was Dead Cert in 2010... and simultaneously pray to the gods of FrightFest we never see a blunderfuck like it again). I digress, I will stick my neck out to ...

I was worried about the same thing re V/H/S/2's US release. But I have 2 inklings of hope we get to see in in a FrightFest crowd: 1) It's actually used as the sleeper queue movie. Paul said they've got an amazing treat for us on the 29th June. This would fit! 2) Back in 2011, Trollhunter was already...

One more selfish one I'd love to see since the director is a great friend of mine thanks to the festival is Emily Hagin's latest Grow Up, Tony Phillips . It's not horror (but neither was The American Scream) but it has it's feet firmly in the genre and I think would play lovely to a niche crowd. Dis...

50 days to go now till the lineup drops & - those brave/stupid enough start the trek to Leicester Square for the sleeper queue. More & more genre titles are popping up out of the woodwork and - this year having most of the big releases open far in advance of August [wasn't that Glasgow lineu...
