Full line-up for FrightFest 2011 is announced

*The full line-up for this year’s Film4 FrightFest has been
released, and it’s another cracker of a programme.*

Taking place at the Empire Cinema in Leicester Square between 25-29
August, the schedule contains a record 10 British films and horrors
from all around the world – including Israel and Switzerland.

A total of 37 spine-tinglers are included in the event, with
bloodthirsty topics including killer santas, troll hunting,
carrot-wielding psychos and even a werewolf musical.

This is _Total Film_’s third year in partnership with
FrightFest, and every year we get behind one film in particular that
we know is going to rock the world.

For 2011, we’re shoving our stamp of approval on gut-wrenching
chiller _Kill List_ (above), a British offering from _Down Terrace_
director Ben Wheatley.

It follows an ex-soldier who's become a hitman, and heads off on a
violent mission.

“Given to gloriously unpredictable, violent mood swings, _Kill
List_ is the best British genre film in some years,” says Jamie
Graham, Deputy Editor of _Total Film_.

“_Down Terrace_ announced director Ben Wheatley as One To Watch.
_Kill List_ ensures that Hollywood will now snap to attention
too.”

To book tickets call 08 714 714 714 or go online at:

Tickets for festival and day passes go on sale from 2 July 2011.

15:05 The Total Film Interview
Larry Fessenden in conversation with Jamie Graham

Larry Fessenden is the most underrated American filmmaker working in
horror today. His four features (No Telling, Habit, Wendigo, The Last
Winter) have established the 48-year-old New Yorker’s inimitable
brand of low-key, naturalistic scares, and his haunting work often
exhibits heartfelt ecological concerns while featuring real people in
recognisable surroundings – even when his protagonists are
vampires.

Larry has also acted in nearly 50 films and produced 40-odd titles,
including Ti West’s The Roost, The House of the Devil and, at
FrightFest this year, The Innkeepers. Total Film looks forward to
introducing the mysterious maven of mayhem to the FrightFest stage.
