In the last week of August, I'll be occupying a regular seat in Leicester Square's Empire cinema for the Film4 Frightfest 2011. The festival is a series of horror screenings and premieres that have included in the past, Ringu 2, Dark Water, The Eye, Oldboy, Switchblade Romance, Martyrs, Creep, Wolf Creek, Pan's Labyrinth, Them, The Host and Triangle as well as welcoming guest speakers that include Tobe Hooper (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre) and zombie maestro George A. Romero.
The opening film of the festival will be Don't Be Afraid of the Dark, produced by Guillermo del Toro and closing will be Julian Gilby's A Lonely Place To Die. The Norwegian handheld camera comedy/horror TrollHunter will also appear at some stage and is already looking destined to be a cult classic.
The full line-up will be revealed on July 1st.
Here are trailers for the three that have been announced.
