Bristol, get ready.

Underground blu-ray label Refuse Films is tearing across the country with the Get Tromatized! Live With Lloyd Kaufman UK Tour, and the chaos is making its way to on 18 January for a night of unfiltered cult cinema.

As part of this nationwide Tromatic takeover, Lloyd Kaufman, president of Troma Entertainment and creator of The Toxic Avenger, returns to the UK for the first time in five years and brings his anarchic independent filmmaking spirit straight to Bristol.

Refuse Films invites you to Tromatize your Sunday evening as Kaufman appears in person to introduce his cult classic Tromeo & Juliet (1996) and deliver a live talk before the film.

After the screening, join him for a meet and greet signing at the Troma merchandise booth, where you can pick up exclusive fantoxic Tromabilia and get your Tromatic treasures signed by Lloyd Kaufman himself.

Neil Breen is back with a new film.

Good news: it looks like he's eschewing green screens for actual sets including, once again, his own home.

Also... he's put himself in a fighter jet.

Beetlejuice? Frankenstein? Dracula? Bah! They're for tourists!

If you're following us on Facebook, then we're going to assume you're looking for something a bit less mainstream and a tad more culty and weird this spooky season and Forbidden Worlds Film Festival might have the solution for you with The Big Scream: Six Feet Down Under happening next week at Bristol Megascreen!

Over two wild nights, get ready to dive headfirst into the pulse-pounding, rough-as-guts world of Ozploitation - a fair dinkum celebration of the grindhouse-style exploitation flicks that went troppo around the world in the 70s and 80s.

From bloodsuckers and demonic possession to ruthless poachers, gut-churning body horror and even a rampaging giant boar, you’ll see Oz like you’ve never seen it before.

FRIDAY 24 OCTOBER

5.30pm: LONG WEEKEND (1978): It’s man vs nature in this cult Ozploitation classic… but will this couple be found guilty?

7.45pm: NEXT OF KIN (1982): Described as ‘Suspiria Down Under’ - get ready for one of Australia’s most underseen genre films!

10pm: BODY MELT (1993): Get ready for unparalleled levels of body fluids... plus Harold Bishop from Neighbours!

SATURDAY 25 OCTOBER

5.00pm: FAIR GAME (1986): In the Australian Outback, a young wildlife conservationist is terrorized by bored poachers and decides to fight back!

7.30pm: THIRST (1979): A young woman is kidnapped by a cult of vampires who believe she is their messiah!

10pm: RAZORBACK (1984): Prepare for a new breed of terror with this classic creature feature... dubbed by some as the 'Australian Jaws'!

Watch the trailer and get your tickets!

Naughty!

Only time and the audience can determine whether something becomes a 'cult film'.

Francis Ford Coppola’s recent road show for "Megalopolis" is an attempt to dictate its legacy—and a misunderstanding of how fandom works.

Great question.

Here’s hoping they didn’t ask any idiots…
