FrightFest Glasgow 2024 Line Up Will Test Your ‘Morality’

Fear, delusions and morality test awaits those who dare call the iconic Glasgow Film Theatre home in March. The Dark Heart of cinema has spoken and unveiled the Pigeon Shrine FrightFest Glasgow 2024 Line Up.

FrightFest is celebrating it’s 25th year in existence, 19 of them  they have sharing the stage with Glasgow Film Festival. The 19th edition taking place from 7th March until 9th March with a diverse line up from the darkest caverns of humanity. This year we will be presenting twelve films from eight countries, spanning three continents, including two world and eight UK premieres.

The 2024 edition promises to kick-off on Thursday 7th March with UK Premiere of You’ll Never Find Me. The twisted terror tale is the directorial debut from Australian filmmaking duo Josiah Allen and  Indianna Bell.

The traditional two-day event opens on Friday 8th March with a surprise film to warm that ‘cold heart’. Mathieu Turi’s (Hostile) The Deep Dark, an creature feature set to take you on a dark voyage to the edge of limitless horrific imagination.

Creature feature is the name of the game with the next film with the UK Premier of Mike Hermosa’s gloriously entertaining splatter monster comedy The Invisible Raptor.

Next up is Wake Up From RKSS, the directorial collective behind Turbo Kid and Summer of ’84. A fresh take on the slasher genre and Gen Z environmental issues that collide in one twisted night from hell.

The first day ends an uncompromising, wild, body horror shocker from co-directors Alix Austin and Keir Siewert, with the UK Premiere for Kill Your Lover.

The Saturday (9th March) will be a blood feast that opens with the world premiere of MOM. A striking, provocative and consuming psychological horror Schitt’s Creek star Emily Hampshire. Served up next is the Scottish premiere of flesh-eating feast, The Funeral , a gripping body shocker from Turkish director Orcun Behram.

Delusions is on the cards with the World premiere of Custom, from UK based Brazilian filmmaker Tiago Teixeira. This  horror thriller, stars Abigail Hardingham. The UK premieres continue with Federico Zampaglione’s The Well, a dark supernatural chiller starring Lauren LaVera (Terrifier 2).

Then we have the unsettling folk horror tale All You Need Is Death from Paul Duane. An ethnomusicology shocker that echoes early Ben Wheatley. Dare you enter the killing fields in Alan Scott Neal’s hard-hitting diner-invasion thriller, Last Straw closing the fest.

Plus, there are premieres of two shorts, from Scottish filmmakers. Mouse, from Ewan J. Fletcher, and Reiff Gaskell’s Subject 73.

Festival co-director Alan Jones says, “We live in amazing times of change in the delivery of the audiovisual experience, but festivals like the GFF and FrightFest remain constant and committed to bringing all of these advances together for lively debate because the magic of cinema knows no boundaries”.
