“This is the kind of movie that cults are made of, and after it finishes its first run, I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see it develop as one of those movies that fans want to include in their lives”
DOORS: 19:45 | FILM STARTS 20:00
We’re returning to Arnos Vale Cemetery, Bristol’s very own necropolis, for the start of our Halloween Season 2026. Enter this fascinating space after hours, get a drink from the bar, then make your way to the beautiful Anglican Chapel to take your seat, and enjoy the show in this unique and historic venue.
Our second film for Halloween 2026 at Arnos Vale is a 40th anniversary screening of the horticultural horrorshow Little Shop Of Horrors. This Oscar-nominated black comedy is based off the 1982 Alan Menken musical, and features Rick Moranis as the hapless florist who inadvertently creates a monster with a taste for human flesh and a mean baritone singing voice. A bona fide cult classic, whether you’re a first time viewer or a die-hard fan - there’s always room for a little more Audrey II in your life…!
