From under-the-bed monsters to monsters in front of your eyes, from the sinister and the creepy to the wickedly human and the not-so-human, this year’s selection shines a spotlight on upcoming filmmakers.
The UK is represented with a record eleven entries. There are world premiere screenings for Werewolf, where game night just got dangerous, A Bit Of Fun, where a girls’ night in brings out the dead and The Beholder, in which you’d be wise to beware the eyes of strangers…

In a kill-or-be-killed world where starvation is rife and strangers are always dangerous, The Survivalist lives off the grid, and by his wits. When a starving woman and her teenage daughter discover his forest refuge, his loneliness drives him to overcome his suspicion and strike a bargain with them in return for bed and board. But as desire becomes stronger than necessity, the exchange becomes an uneasy, ongoing arrangement which threatens not only his carefully constructed world but also his life.
If I had to live alone in a forest, I probably wouldn’t last long enough to tweet for help. It would be a #disaster. The Survivalist, however, seems to have got surviving down (although with a name like that, who is surprised?...

Liam Cunningham is a far cry from his kind Game of Thrones character Davos Seaworth in the scary trailer for Let Us Prey.
The horror movie casts Cunningham as a mysterious being known only as Six, who is locked behind bars in remote Scotland.
Police soon learn that Six has a mission of vengeance against residents of their small village – and his motivations might be supernatural in nature.
Let Us Prey has been produced by The Last Days on Mars' Brendan McCarthy and John McDonnell of Stitches.
This ensemble movie also stars Pollyanna McIntosh as a local police officer, Douglas Russell as her supervisor and Niall Greig Fulton as the town's doctor.
Let Us Prey is expected to open later this year in the UK.

It’s possible that Let Us Prey peaks too early.
The title sequence is wonderfully put together. Incredible imagery of a mysterious stranger seemingly appearing out of the ocean and making his way into a sleepy little town, backed by a powerful electronic soundtrack, sets expectations for what follows to an astronomically high level. Disappointingly, the rest of the film doesn’t live up to its opening.
Focusing on the mysterious appearance of, well, Liam Cunningham, Let Us Prey was pitched before its screening on Mayhem’s opening night as a kind of reverse Assault on Precinct 13. Which is probably accurate: Cunningham is incarcerated by Pollyanna McIntosh in one of the holding cells of the town police station,...

Grimmfest 2014 takes place in Manchester, England, from the 2nd-5th October, and the opening night lineup has been announced. It includes two bloody fantastic features, an exclusive short film premiere, and some great special guests.
This year’s Grimmfest Opening Night will be headlined by the English Premiere of Brian O’Malley’s Scottish/Irish horror Let Us Prey starring Liam Cunningham ("Game of Thrones") and Pollyanna McIntosh (The Woman).
Synopsis:
We join Rachel (McIntosh), a rookie cop, as she is about to begin her first nightshift in a neglected police station in a Scottish backwater town... the kind of place where the tide has gone out and stranded a motley bunch of the aimless, the forgotten, the bitter-and-twisted who all think that, really, they deserve to be somewhere else. They all think they’re there by accident and that, with a little luck, life is going to get better.

Update: Sean Harris was awarded Best Actor in a Horror Feature at the Fantastic Fest 2011 Awards for his performance in A Lonely Place To Die.
A Lonely Place To Die is an exciting example of how a more direct approach to filmmaking can still be effective, despite the increasing number of stylistic and experimental films (not necessarily a bad thing) flooding the market. Melissa George (30 Days Of Night, and TV’s Grey’s Anatomy) plays Alison, on a trek into the Scottish Highlands with four fellow mountain climbers. The story begins as a peaceful nature outing far from civilization and technology, but shifts into a deadly thriller once they discover a little girl named Anna locked away inside a 3×6 buried box at the top of the mountain.
Co-written with Will Gilbey and directed by Julien Gilbey (Rise Of The Foot Soldier), A Lonely Place To Die does a fantastic job...

This is a competition for Valhalla Rising directed by Nicolas Winding Refn and starring Mads Mikkelsen, Gary Lewis, Jamie Sives, Ewan Stewart, Alexander Morton, Callum Mitchell, Andrew Flanagan and Douglas Russell. From the producers of The Football Factory and the director of the critically acclaimed Pusher trilogy and controversial biopic Bronson, Nicolas Winding Refn's film depicts the unflinching violence and uncompromising brutality of the Viking Age period. Countering this harshness are the intense and thought provoking themes that raise the bar to what the director calls "science fiction for the mind". Valhalla Rising is visually stunning and contains an atmosphere that echoes Wrath of God and Apocalypse Now.
