@fwfilmfestival.bsky.social I honestly thought Clash of the Titans was going to be the highlight of Day 3. Whilst it was great seeing it on the big screen, Hercules Return was something else. A magnificent choice!!!!

Frantic run back to my house as I forgot my pass. Phew!

End of Day 2 of the film festival @fwfilmfestival.bsky.social so far, all bangers and some get intros. Better than last year? No, as nothing was going to top Gale Anne Hurd with intros to Aliens and Tremors but this is running it close.

Well that was a memory fail. For some reason I thought I had seen Dragonslayer. Haven’t seen it and it doesn’t star Christian Slater as I “remembered”. Seems Christian Slater hasn’t been in any dragon films. N idea what I was thinking of. #forbiddenworlds

@fwfilmfestival.bsky.social Don’t think I would have ever got round to seeing Brotherhood of the Wolf if it wasn’t for your festival, historical film in French would a tough sell to my wife. Which would have been a travesty. That 4k print was glorious. That opening sequence in the rain felt wet.

@fwfilmfestival.bsky.social Consideringwe have Clan of the Cave Bear and Excalibur, did Emerald Forest ever get any consideration? Another mid 80’s film, directed by John Boorman with a tribal theme like Cave Bear. Might play better today with the environmental aspect.

What a lovely time we had this weekend. I've seen Tremors 1000 times but the sound design really pops in the cinema, lovely and squelchy. Give yourself a treat next year and come down!

HUGE reaction from the audience for WWII submarine horror BELOW - technically its UK premiere! #FilmSky #DavidTwohy #HoltMcCallaney

@fwfilmfestival.bsky.social Not sure how you are going to top this year. Slipstream?….

I have managed to see Aliens on an IMAX screen with a Gale Anne Hurd q and a but I think Below is my highlight. @fwfilmfestival.bsky.social

Who do you reach out to when celebrating the career of @galeannehurd.bsky.social? How about her collaborator on some of her most iconic films - The Terminator, Aliens, The Abyss and Terminator 2: Judgement Day - the one and only James Cameron. Watch his full intro: www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4bs...

Have just left the opening film of this years @fwfilmfestival.bsky.social and I’m already buzzing. So much to look forward too. Couldn’t make full use of my pass last year due to family reasons so I’m looking to make the most of it this year.

It’s my favourite time of the year.

Here is my UK film critics starter pack. I'm sure ive left some people out. If I've left you out, please do give me a shout and I will add you. go.bsky.app/VgDkp85
