In celebration of #InternationalWomensDay, this roundtable discussion from Grindfest 2025 brings together leading horror academics and festival directors to discuss representation, inclusivity, and the role of women across the horror genre.
Feedback like this from the BFI audience survey reminds us why it matters — bringing filmmakers, audiences, partners and supporters together through a shared love of genre cinema and a passion for seeing films the way they were meant to be seen, with an audience that truly knows and appreciates it.
🔥It’s nearing closing time for last orders at St. Elmo’s bar. Grab your tickets for the memory of a lifetime and experience this 1980’s coming of age brat pack classic for the first time all over again.

We were thrilled to present JAWS 3D via this format in 2023 at The Regent!
