Berberian Sound Studio
Date Location
In the 1970s, a British sound technician (Toby Jones) is brought to Italy to work on the sound effects for a gruesome horror film. His nightmarish task slowly takes over his psyche, driving him to confront his own past. Berberian Sound Studio is many things: an anti-horror film, a stylistic tour de force, and a dream of cinema. As such, it offers a kind of pleasure that is rare in films, while recreating in a highly original way the pleasures of Italian horror cinema.

The Cold Light of Day
Date Location
(1 star) Wall Street trader Will (Cavill) is visiting his family in Spain when they – but not he – are kidnapped, in retaliation for the dodgy dealings of his spy dad (Willis). A clichéd and incoherent script inspires dull lead performances, and what with the ham-fisted editing it's very much an inaction thriller.
