Lighthouse ad is just redirecting to the main site, but Fuku-chan of FukuFuku Flats is obviously a given for Dublin considering it's the image they're using to advertise the fest every where :pac: They had asked on Facebook a few months ago whether there was any interest in a Tokyo Tribes screening, so fingers crossed that will show up too - and maybe they'll take the suggestion of a double bill with Why Don't You Play in Hell?, which would be a lot of Sono-zaniness for one day!

Given the strength of Daihachi Yoshida's last film, will be very keen to see Pale Moon if it's showing in Dublin.

They all sound good to me! Advertising on this seems to have been pretty weak tough. Can you guys post here again as soon as you have precise info on the Dublin screenings?

Ditto. SO psyched about this!

Tristram

In previous years has there been any sort of festival pass that allows access to multiple screenings?

johnny_ultimate

They have had various offers over the years, think it was the year before last there was a reduced deal if you bought tickets straight from the Lighthouse box office. I don't recall anything last year, though...

Tristram

Thanks, hopefully there is some kind of offer as there are a lot I want to see and I won't be able to afford it otherwise.

Bozo Skeleton

Ticket booked for Kwaidan. Tickets cost €5! And loyalty points added to boot. Saw it on dvd in the md 90's when Chartbusters in Phibsborough was open 24 hours a day, if memory serves me right, or maybe it was open til 6 am. I do remember going there at all hours to rent dvds. Really looking forward to seeing this on the big screen.
