Compass of Horror International Film Festival

Dedicated to opening up ignored areas of visual culture and contemporary cinematic debate,
The Compass of Horror is proud to bring the very best of modern international horror film to Bristol.
Using the structural framework of the compass as our guide we offer four cultural reference points
from which to explore the diversity of global attitudes to horror cinema. The North is represented by Sweeden, South: Nigeria, East: Japan, West: Canada, and Central is the UK. With a fortnight of events
and activities at venues across Bristol, focused around a core weekend of screenings, encounters
and dialogues, The Compass of Horror aims to develop a vital space for creativity, debate and
cultural exchange.
