To celebrate the publication of The Gospel of Filth, FAB Press has organised a very special book-launch event, in the form of the Death and the Devil film festival, which will take place on Saturday 21 November 2009 at Riverside Studios in Hammersmith, London. To spice up the event, for the first time ever in London, there will also be an exclusive LIVE PERFORMANCE by horror star Doug Bradley, most well-known for his portrayal of Pinhead from the Hellraiserfilms, and as the narrator on the four most recent albums from Cradle of Filth.

Films to be shown include the Occult sacrifice thriller Race with the Devil, Satanic melt-movie The Devil's Rain, and Mario Bava's Gothic masterpiece Black Sabbath. Plus there's a triple bill of Doug Bradley short horror films, book-signing sessions and some special surprises that we are keeping under wraps for now!

In addition to full day passes at the all-inclusive price of £30.00 each, individual tickets are also available for £7.50 each. If you would like to buy tickets to individual screenings, or to Doug Bradley's live show, please call the Riverside Studios box office on 020 8237 1111.
