GASP! Announce Two New Horror Screenings

It’s five months to go until GASP! Horror Film Festival 2026 but you don’t have to wait until then for more big screen terror made by filmmakers within marginalised communities as the annual festival announces not just one but two upcoming events at Cultplex!

GASP! Valentine’s Monster Double Feature – Friday February 13th at 7pm

This February, on Friday the 13th, come spend the night with GASP! Horror Film Festival as they screen a Valentine’s special double bill of (not very) romantic horror movies starting with the Universal Monsters classic, Bride of Frankenstein, a highly ambitious and highly influential horror masterpiece that changed the genre as we know it with its gothic, atmospheric horror that provides so much iconic, instantly recognisable imagery mixed with moments of surrealism and sharp wit.

This will be followed by a different kind of Frankenstein, the underrated modern gem that is Lisa Frankenstein, a coming-of-RAGE love story that boasts a stellar cast with standout performances from Kathryn Newton, Cole Sprouse and Carla Gugino, a solid script from Oscar-winning Juno and Jennifer’s Body writer, Diablo Cody, and a phenomenal soundtrack full of 80s post-punk bangers!

Join GASP! for an alternative Valentine’s film night and watch two camp monster masterpieces from two very different points in film history back to back on the big screen!

International Women’s Day – The Slumber Party Massacre (1982) – Sunday March 8th at 7pm

GASP! returns to their home of Cultplex on International Women’s Day to host a screening of the satirical feminist horror masterpiece, The Slumber Party Massacre!  

Amy Holden Jones’ 80s cult classic holds a mirror up to the male gaze that was very much present within the majority of slasher films at its time of release, commenting on misogyny and predictable tropes using sharp humour, buckets of melodrama and plenty of gory kills!

Join GASP! on March 8th to see this very fun, very important and very camp slasher classic on the big screen.

Reserve tickets for both screenings.
