Bristol Bad Film Club makes a comeback for a one-off event
We haven’t seen much of the Bristol Bad Film Club since founder Ti Singh announced back in February that the club was to scale back its events so he and his team could concentrate on growing and expanding the Forbidden Worlds Film Festival.
But occasionally an opportunity comes along that simply can’t be resisted. So the Bristol Bad Film Club is back for what’s being described as the most blasphemous collaboration in Bristol film history: an evening of African Godsploitation organised in association with the Bristol Black Horror Club.
is needed now More than ever
Compiled and introduced by Australian filmmaker and B film historian Andrew Leavold of The Search For Weng Weng fame, Flying Baptists Over Nollywood promises a literally eye-popping selection of film clips, trailers and documentaries from what’s billed as “filmdom’s final frontier”.
It’s a “90-minute journey upriver into the dark heart of African Z-grade cinema”, populated with demons, witch children, midget gangsters and Antichrists – all intended to scare the bejebus into viewers.
The event takes place on October 19 at Bristol Improv Theatre. Tickets are on sale here and are certain to sell out very quickly, so grab them while you can. All profits go to Bristol Mind.
