It's enough to make you scream... A horror-themed late-night Halloween film festival which is: FREE for students!* Includes FREE beer or glass of wine!

FREE Introductory Student Membership to the Phoenix Picturehouse cinema!

A bar that stay opens until way beyond the 'witching' hour!

And it all starts in just 11 days time!

Yes, on Monday, October 27, starting at 11.30pm, CREEP SHOW, Oxford's very first week-long scare-fest, launches with the big screen presentation of that classic horror chiller An American Werewolf in London.

The festival then continues with: Dawn of The Dead (real nasty). Oct 28 Rosemary's Baby (creepy as Hell). Oct 29 The Shining ("Here's Johnny...."). Oct 30 Halloween double bill of Friday The 13 and Halloween (slasher Heaven). Oct 31 Saturday night double bill of Psycho — Hitchcock's original — and The Thing (see a dog get turned inside out...). Nov 1 Naturally, all the films are 18 certificate, and the festival is only those for those of a strong disposition — particularly if the thought of watching someone's guts spill out in a shopping mall proves too much for you.

But relax, it's not all horror and frights. There'll be prizes for the best fancy dress (obviously nothing fancy, just bottles of fizz and some posh chocolates) and the chance to get together with friends to scream and wet your pants (we're all for audience participation).

So what about the films themselves?

This week, from behind a big cushion, we'll look at American Werewolf, Dawn of The Dead, Rosemary's Baby and The Shining. *On production of a valid student card (we've got to know you're a real student, right?) and a copy of that day's Oxford Mail (it's just 35p, and don't worry, we'll be there with a whole load of them in case you forget).
