The Blair Witch Project
6pm: Doors open
The event begins at 7pm, with a short introductory film
Mainfeature:
Blair Witch Project, 1999 (15)
Director: Daniel Myrick and Eduardo Sánchez
Three film students vanish after travelling into a Maryland forest to film a documentary on the local Blair Witch legend, leaving only their footage behind.
Short intro film:
The Birdwatcher, 2024
Director: Ryan Mackfall
Two investigators approach a birdwatching hut deep in the forest following the reported disappearance of a grieving man. As they piece together this man’s final moments, the evidence they gather becomes increasingly unnerving and hard to explain. Sea birds flock to the hut far inland, scrimshaw and whaling paraphernalia sit next to ancient Celtic artefacts on the shelves. Situated in Cornwall and drawing upon the county’s natural environment, seafaring tradition, Celtic history, and Cornish language – The Birdwatcher takes its themes from a time when the world seemed much larger, mysterious, and frightening, drawing parallels with the fears and xenophobia of the contemporary moment.
