Feel the Fear
We are delighted to be able to pass on our congratulations to the legend that is Christopher Lee, newly knighted in the Queen’s Birthday Honours at the grand old age of 87. You can see him on Sunday at 10.30am in in The Satanic Rites of Dracula.
On Sunday, director Mike Hodges (Get Carter, Flash Gordon, The Terminal Man) will be in conversation with FFW Artistic Director Tony Earnshaw. The talk will be followed by a screening of Flash Gordon.
The stars of The Scar Crow will be descending on Bradford for the film's screening on Sunday. Among those set to attend are actors Anna Tollputt and Darren McIlroy, co-directors Andy Thompson and Pete Benson plus several key crew personnel.
See Watchmen: The IMAX Experience up on a screen as tall as three double decker buses. We're also showing the recent Star Trek on our IMAX screen, and from Friday 12 June you can book tickets for Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince: The IMAX 3D Experience.
