Black Sunday Film Festival returns to the Whirled Cinema, London, for our fourth year - January 29th and 30th 2022.
Our 2022 event hosts four fantastic feature films and nineteen amazing short films over two days. You can check out the genre delights on offer below:
Feature films include the London Premiere of ALONE WITH YOU from writer/director duo Emily Bennett and Justin Brooks, with an incredible central performance from Emily Bennett, alongside co-star and genre legend Barbara Crampton.
Feature film DUYSTER has it’s UK premiere. From directors Thomas Vanbrabant and Jordi Ostir, the found footage horror follows three students as they film a documentary about Johannes Duyster - Antwerp's infamous 17th century executioner.
As in 2021, the festival will come to a close with the CULT FILM SECRET SCREENING. Teaming with Arrow Video, we hosted the return of HELLRAISER to the silver screen in 2021, with another cult classic from the Arrow vault planned for 2022.
