BOYS FROM COUNTY HELL // Dir. Chris Baugh
Our opening film is Irish horror-comedy BOYS FROM COUNTY HELL, which sees the residents of a sleepy Irish village (whose claim to fame is the dubious legend that Bram Stoker once spent a night in the local pub where he was inspired to write 'Dracula') in a fight for survival as they discover there may be more to the myth of a local bloodsucking creature than they thought. From the producers of last year's Mayhem Film Festival favourite EXTRA ORDINARY.

PG: PSYCHO GOREMAN // Dir. Steve Kostanski
We're delighted to welcome back Steven Kostanski with his new film, PSYCHO GOREMAN. When siblings Mimi and Luke unwittingly resurrect an ancient alien overlord using a magical amulet, they force the monster to obey their childish whims, and accidentally attract a rogues' gallery of intergalactic assassins to small-town suburbia. Called "the craziest, bloodiest horror-movie of 2020" by Bloody Disgusting, we can't wait to screen this journey into madness.

Short Film Showcase // Dir. Various (Line-up will be announced on Friday 18 September)

THE OAK ROOM // Dir. Cody Calahan
Finally, our closing film is THE OAK ROOM, a violent Canadian story of mistaken identity and double crosses starring Breaking Bad's RJ Mitte. During a raging snowstorm, a drifter returns home to the blue-collar bar located in the remote Canadian town where he was born. When he offers to settle an old debt with a grizzled bartender by telling him a story, the night's events quickly spins out of control.
