Party like its 1929 this Halloween, as musician Hugo Max provides viola accompaniment to a series of spooky silent classics at Prince Charles Cinema, Chiswick Cinema and Finsbury Park Picturehouse. On the slate across Octoober and November are psychodrama The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, German expressionist masterpiece Nosferatu, found-footage horror film Häxan, avant-garde A Page of Madness, Hitchcock’s The Lodger and The Adventures of Prince Achmed, the oldest survining animated feature film. Expect the unexpected in a unique and transportingly old-world cinemagoing experience.
Horror films aren’t just for Halloween, but they certainly make spooky season that bit more terrifyingly fun. Whether you’re a hide-behind-the-cushion kind of watcher or someone who revels in every jumpscare and nightmare-inducing villain, joining a Halloween film screening with fellow horror enthusiasts is guaranteed way to get your heart racing and your blood curdling this All Hallow’s Eve.
If you’re firmly against any blood, guts and gore, you can still get involved – not all Halloween screenings are focused on bone-chilling bumps in the night. There are also plenty of more lighthearted picks to choose from.
