630 mins, & Partially Subtitled

Join us for a horror all-nighter in partnership with Bristol Black Horror Club and Studio residents Stormjar, as part of BFI's In Dreams Are Monsters Blockbuster season.

Leave the 'safety' of your houses - spend the night with us. This chilling all-night selection of five films explores the darkness of the domestic, the familiar, and the familial. We will take you on a thrilling horror ride through the witching hours in the company of vampires, demons, and the supernatural.

In between screenings create your own digital monster inspired by the films and your own twisted imagination - your monster will enter a digital haunted house courtesy of immersive horror studio Stormjar. You will also receive a zine about the evening and afterwards we will send you a digital image of your monster and a link to the haunted house, where your monster will live forever more...

This is horror as the gods of cinema intended: as a multiple bill, in a dark room surrounded by other enthusiastic fans. Join us for ten horrific hours - the question is... can you survive the whole night?

Tickets: £20.00 full / £15.00 concessions and under 24s.

Breakfast rolls (veggie and vegan options available) will be available from 09:00 (after the last film).

Your Breakfast rolls order must be made in advance as they won't be available on the day, check your confirmation email for food booking.

The Café & Bar will be open all night for hot drinks, soft drinks, and snacks. Alcoholic drinks will be available until 02:00.

Here's the line up of our five horror films - dip in and out depending on how brave you feel:

A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night

Dir: Ana Lily Amirpour, USA, 2014, 1hr 40mins (Subtitled)

Shot in crisp black and white, this is a haunting story of love between two misfits who shouldn't be together. Set in the fictional Iranian underworld of Bad City, a desolate and industrial place riddled with sordid souls, a lonely vampiress is stalking the town's most unsavoury inhabitants. But when boy meets girl, an unusual love story begins to blossom... blood red.

The Changeling

Dir: Peter Medak, Canada, 1980, 1hr 47mins

This largely unsung masterpiece (a favourite of Stephen King, Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg) stars George C. Scott as a New York composer grieving the deaths of his wife and child. After retiring to a creepy old mansion in Seattle, he is haunted by the ghost of a murdered boy...

Tales From The Hood

Dir: Rusty Cundieff, USA, 1995, 1hr 38mins

At his terrifying funeral parlour, creepy mortician (Clarence Wiliams III) attempts to scare teen drug dealer Stack (Joe Torry) and his friends straight by telling them four horrifying stories in this cult anthology horror, executive produced by Spike Lee.

From Beyond

Dir: Stuart Gordon, USA, 1986, 1hr 25mins

A doctor invents a machine that stimulates a sensory gland in the brain that allows the user to view an extra dimension. Unfortunately, when he sees the monstrous inhabitants of this realm, they can see him too and are rather eager to introduce him to their world: one that goes beyond the flesh...

Demons

Dir: Lamberto Bava, Italy, 1985, 1hr 28mins (Subtitled)

Produced and co-written by Dario Argento, this cult 80's gore-fest sees a cinema audience at a horror night undergo gruesome transformations when a demonic force is unleashed on screen. With a shattering metal soundtrack, plenty of blood, grisly deaths and shocking twists, this is every duty manager's worst nightmare... stay safe in Cinema 1, folks!

A Watershed event curated by Adam Murray (Bristol Black Horror Club) in partnership with Stormjar. Part of BFI FAN's In Dreams are Monsters Blockbuster Season. Supported by funds from the National Lottery.
