The second of the Festival’s Three Fantastic Weekends is an innovative programme of new genre productions from the United States, Canada, France, the United Kingdom and Indonesia. You’ll discover multi-flavoured stories about lycanthropic and insect horror, religious fervour, body-goo fun and a thoroughly modern tale of Javanese folk horror, to name but a few. You’ll also find a few thought-provoking films on the October marquee that have plenty of things to say about the societies we live in and a Hammer studio retrospective of lesser-known films from the 1970s.
HAMMER 70s
For a deeply pleasurable journey into past classics, our retrospective Hammer 70s brings you seven, lesser-known films from Hammer Studios. They were produced in the 1970s, a period marked by social change and the emergence of new norms in British society. As a result, films from this legendary British studio no longer shocked and their avant-garde identity had waned. To counter this, they turned to making films that were more modern, openly erotic and increasingly violent with a new generation of Hammer directors, such as Roy Ward Baker, Jimmy Sangster and Peter Sykes, to name a but a few.
See interview with Jimmy Sangster, cult director of the Hammer Studios, recorded in Strasbourg in 2006.
