Horrorthon Halloween Festival

ObeyGiant

Horrorthon are putting on another festival of horror films over the Halloween bank holiday weekend. Last year, they had the Irish premiere of 28 Days Later, and they even managed to bring Danny Boyle over to Ireland to present his movie personally.

Anyway, the IFI (nee IFC) booklet has a brief glimpse into what to expect.. some of the movies they'll be showing:

• Cypher
• Beyond Re-Animator
• Charlie's Family
• House of the Dead
• The Grudge
• Ichi the Killer
• Friday 13th
• Black Sunday
• Don't Torture a Duckling
• Faceless

According to the organisers, there's still some surprises, but they don't want to give anything away until it's all been confirmed.

I've still got my fingers crossed for Bubba Ho-Tep and Undead.

Nice indeed.

I'd love to see Cypher myself.

Do you have to book tickets in advance or what. Will you be asked for ID. Where can I find out the day and times the films are being shown.

They've just released the Programme for the Horrorthon. All very interesting. Strangely Friday 13th and Faceless don't appear on the programme. So unless one of them is the Surprise film, I guess they have been cancelled. Thank goodness though that Undead has been added to the mix, can't wait. I must birng a large pointy object with me though and stand outside the entrance to the screen when people are going in to see "House Of The Dead".
"Anyone want me to stick this in their eye's, its THE EXACT SAME THING!"

Anyway, should be good fun, just like last year. Although last year I did manage to catch myself a copy of the Exorcist trilogy DVD, now how am I going to top that this year?
