The ever popular UK-based Film4 FrightFest horror fantasy festival returns once again to its second home at the Glasgow Film Festival for the 7th year running. The event takes place from Friday 24 February to Saturday 25 February and will screen no less than eleven new horror titles which will include the ten UK premieres of ‘Tape 407’, ‘Crawl’, ‘The Day’, ‘War Of The Dead’, ‘Evidence’, ‘Penumbra’, ‘Rites Of Spring’, ‘L’arrivo Di Wang/ Wang’s Arrival’, ‘Cassadaga’ and ‘The Raid’ and also the Scottish premiere of ‘Corman’s World: Exploits Of A Hollywood Rebel’. As usual there’ll be a host of directors and filmmakers attending also to hopefully share their thought and opinions on their projects.
