#forbiddenworlds closed with Alligator (1980). Just good clean silly fun. Robert Forster can have my babies.

Another #forbiddenworlds uk premiere, 20 years late, Below was the victim of Weinstein pettiness. Barely released in the US and not at all internationally. And really, haunted WW2 submarine staffed by the best character actors? This is your new favorite movie.

#forbiddenworlds had the first English subtitled screening ever of The Whale God, and this is a chewy movie. Cynical, bleak, meditative, and barely a Kaiju movie, it's a slow burn, but I've been thinking about it since.

Orca is one of those bad exploitation movies that has so much talent going for it, that it's actually good. Richard Harris plays it so straight, the morricone score is great, the orca footage is remarkable. Silliness be damned, it's still good!

A very under the radar film from DavId Twohy next, Below. What better horror/thriller setting than the confines of a submarine? By all accounts this isn't 100% successful. We'll see. Part of me just wishes Pitch Black was screening as that's a banger. Wouldn't fit the theme sadly. #ForbiddenWorlds
The more I think about it, the happier I am that we saw She Creature instead of a new film yesterday. I hope this festival never loses sight of what makes it stand out. I'm willing to accept the idea of the odd new screening but they'd have to be very carefully selected. #ForbiddenWorlds
Today's highlight is the opener, The Whale God. #ForbiddenWorlds

City of Lost Children should not have taken me till I was 33. This is a perfect movie for teenage cinefiles, and it's dope as an adult too.
Pans labyrinth is so in conservation with this its crazy it's not better known.

My first film of #forbiddenworlds in Bristol, Waterworld is so fucking insane. A movie that could never have existed in any other time.
The huge sets, the charismaless leading man, the block of wood masquerading as a love interest, 'my boat', it's all batshit. And a great time
I love this, thank you to #ForbiddenWorlds, and especially the talented artist @jamesstayte.bsky.social I am so happy to be depicted wearing an #Arsenal kit, for all you #Gooners out there!
It was truly wonderful being honored last evening by the #ForbiddenWorlds #FilmFestival, and to top it off, what a lovely surprise to see Jim and Sigourney on their IMAX screen!
Thank you so much! What a great audience for the #ALIENS Directors Cut screening here in Bristol, with huge thanks to the #ForbiddenWorlds team. You are absolutely fantastic!
