We’re marking the 40th anniversary of David Cronenberg’s masterclass in body horror with a special screening, presented in partnership with our friends at Noods Radio and in collaboration with local legends DIY Cinema.
30-Second Horror Shorts Open Call
We’re inviting you to make your own 30-second (or under) nightmare! Think grotesque transformations, practical effects, blood, gore and stomach-churning body horror – inspired by cult classics such as The Thing, Videodrome, Re-Animator, The Evil Dead and, of course, The Fly.
The selected films will be shown immediately before the main feature, giving filmmakers the opportunity to have their work presented to a live audience on the big screen.
The challenge is simple: fright, disgust or completely unsettle us in just 30 seconds. Find out more and submit your film on Noods Radio's website.
Until Sat 31 Oct
