THE SIXTH SENSE at The Mount Without
For 9-year-old Cole Sear, not every gift is a blessing
Our Halloween season continues with a milestone anniversary screening of one of the few horror movies to receive a Best Picture Oscar nomination, The Sixth Sense. M. Night Shyamalan’s breakthrough film remains an arresting watch, 25 years on from its release - it’s got chills, thrills and twists that make it an instant pop culture classic!
MARY SHELLEY'S FRANKENSTEIN at The Mount Without
Kenneth Branagh’s in grave danger in this electrifying adaptation
In the build-up to Halloween, we present a 30th anniversary screening of Kenneth Branagh’s blood-soaked adaptation of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. This grisly retelling of a true horror classic, produced by Francis Ford Coppola, is one of the more faithful adaptations of the source material, and we’re delighted to screen this restoration from the original negatives in a suitably atmospheric venue this October!
THE DESCENT at Redcliffe Caves
Where better to watch a cave-based horror film than in a cave complex…?
Due to massive demand, we’ve added an extra screening of The Descent. Tickets always go fast for this, but watching it in the Caves is a truly immersive, and terrifying, experience, and possibly unsuitable for anyone with severe claustrophobia. It’s the ultimate way to experience Horror In The Caves – but you have been warned!
IT FOLLOWS at Redcliffe Caves
The tension is as relentless as the antagonist in this 21st Century nightmare
Another modern classic celebrating its 10th anniversary this year is the haunting It Follows. It’s a wickedly simple premise, executed with aplomb and has a truly nightmarish aura that will linger long in the memory. With a sequel only recently confirmed, and lead actress Taika Monroe currently starring in occult chiller Longlegs, now is the perfect time to catch it - before it catches you…
THE TEXAS CHAIN SAW MASSACRE (1974) at Redcliffe Caves
Celebrate half a century of one of the most infamous films ever made
If you’re feeling particularly brave this Halloween, enter the Caves for a very special 50th anniversary screening of The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, with a stunning digital restoration showcasing this infamous cult classic in all its gory glory. It’s a must-see for any horror aficionado - and for those of you thinking that a 50 year old film can’t be all that bad, don’t say we didn’t warn you!
THE GRUDGE at Redcliffe Caves
“Once you see it, you can never forget. Once it sees you, you can never escape”
Join us for a 20th anniversary screening of The Grudge in Redcliffe Caves this October. Japanese filmmaker Takashi Shimizu directed this English-language remake of his 2002 hit Ju-On: The Grudge, starring Sarah Michelle Gellar and Bill Pullman; it’s a deeply unnerving watch with some of the most iconic imagery of early 2000s horror cinema!
THE BABADOOK at Redcliffe Caves
Have you met Mr Babadook? Come to the Caves - you’ll see him if you look
Somehow, it’s already time to celebrate the 10th birthday of The Babadook! This harrowing psychological chiller was part of our very first Horror In The Caves programme way back in March 2016, and we’re excited to bring it back to the Caves for an anniversary screening. Top hats off to first time director Jennifer Kent for this astonishing debut, which is one of the creepiest films of the century so far…
CAT PEOPLE (1942) at Redcliffe Caves
When you just can’t shake off that lingering feline of dread…
For Sunday’s Matinee Screening at Horror In The Caves, we’re thrilled to present a special showing of Cat People, kindly licensed by the BFI. This 2K digital restoration brings out the eerie beauty of this creature feature noir’s stylish shadows and chiaroscuro lighting; it’s a moody and suspenseful alternative to the monster movie shtick of the 1940s, with one of the most celebrated jump scares in history…!
A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET at Redcliffe Caves
40 years on, and we’re still not truly ready for Freddy
We’re rounding off our day of 1984 films with a late night screening of one of the most iconic horror films of all time, A Nightmare On Elm Street. The franchise may have put its instantly recognisable villain through the injustices of numerous inferior sequels (and THAT novelty rap) but Freddy Kreuger’s delightfully creepy debut still has the power to haunt your dreams.
GHOSTBUSTERS at Redcliffe Caves
There is no witty caption. Only Zuul.
The day of 1984 horror classics at Redcliffe Caves continues with Ghostbusters. The franchise is still going strong four decades on, but nothing tops the original - strap on your proton packs and prepare for the Stay-Puftapocalypse!
CHILDREN OF THE CORN (1984) at Redcliffe Caves
In Gatlin, Nebraska, you reap more than you sow
Our day of 1984 horror films continues with a double bill of Stephen King adaptations. Children Of The Corn is a lo-fi, gruesome tale featuring some of the creepiest children in the horror movie canon; add in a pre-Terminator Linda Hamilton, some beautifully unsettling scenery and some subtle political commentary, and you’ve got a true cult classic!
FIRESTARTER (1984) at Redcliffe Caves
Drew Barrymore blazes a trail as a preternatural young prodigy
The double bill of 1984 Stephen King adaptations continues at Redciiffe Caves. Firestarter is full of searing pyrotechnical special effects, and a young Drew Barrymore provides a memorable turn in this adaptation of one of King’s more thought-provoking sci-fi chillers, which was surely a major influence on Stranger Things.
GREMLINS at Redcliffe Caves
They’ll be expecting you… and this October, so will we!
Saturday’s programme at Redcliffe Caves is dedicated to 1984, a fantastic year for cult classic horror releases, so we’re celebrating some 40th birthdays - starting with Gremlins! This cult comedy-horror has its own wicked spin on the festive spirit, making it one of the few films that works well at Halloween or Christmas (or both, if you’re like us!).
INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS (1956) at Redcliffe Caves
The seminal 50s sci-fi thriller that got every body talking
Our discounted Matinee Screenings of vintage horror return to the Caves on Saturday and Sunday mornings, starting with the seminal sci-fi chiller Invasion Of The Body Snatchers. Based on Jack Finney’s novel - which turns 70 this year - and shot in a film noir style, this 50s classic is both a gripping extraterrestrial thriller and a wry commentary on McCarthyism, and remains as eerie as ever…
SAW at Redcliffe Caves
A deadly puzzle where nobody wants to be missing pieces…
On Friday evening, we’re bringing a 20th anniversary screening of the very first Saw film to Redcliffe Caves. It’s spawned a juggernaut of an ongoing franchise, but the fiendishly simple concept of the original is still yet to be topped - you’ll be watching through your fingers and counting your toes…!
