IFI Horrorthon

This event has ended

Irish Film Institute, Thursday 24th October - Monday 28th October

As part of this year's festival, IFI Horrorthon are excited to welcome Dublin horror film, art and music club Slaughterhouse and Dublin City Council Bram Stoker Festival to the IFI for their most exciting event yet at the Irish Film Institute. From churches and tattoo parlours to wine bars and plant shops, Slaughterhouse’s sold-out takeovers of unusual venues across the city give cult horror classics fresh life with live re-scores, discussions and art exhibits inspired by the films. In collaboration with IFI Horrorthon, they’re invading the IFI, for one night only, and turning it into the SLAUGHTERHOUSE OF HORRORS, featuring Seanchoíche, a storytelling night which has sold out events across the world, will gather people to tell their stories of ‘The Horror Within', a 35th-anniversary screening of Pet Sematary, and a masterclass in Irish horror in the final room, featuring Kate Dolan (You Are Not My Mother) and a special guest, hosted by Billie Jean of the ever-popular Video Nasty Presents. Tickets to these three events includes access to an afterparty in the IFI foyer afterwards, where the crew from HONEYPOT will be waking the dead as they present a brand new soundtrack for the legendary 1922 film Häxan.
