Day of the Dead
In the opening film Else (UK Premiere) at 1.30pm, a couple’s very new relationship is catapulted to the next level when a strange new disease begins to spread that gradually merges living beings into whatever object they come into contact with. Following at 3.45pm is The Weekend, a smart, suspenseful horror-thriller, rooted in family values and culture but with a deliciously dark twist.
After an hour’s break for stocking up on supplies, Day of the Dead continues at 6.45pm with Dead Talents Society, a hilarious dark comedy about a contest for ghosts in the underworld where they must compete to avoid eternal damnation. The closing film at 9pm is Dead Mail, a surreal horror thriller that blends retro analogue aesthetics with a twisted tale of obsession, murder, and electronic keyboards.
