Lurker15
When Matthew, a socially isolated retail clerk in his twenties, crosses paths with rising pop star Oliver, he seizes the chance to slip into the celebrity’s inner circle. But staying there proves far more difficult. Surrounded by an entourage all competing for Oliver’s attention, Matthew must demonstrate that he is more than just another hanger-on. This razor-sharp directorial debut from The Bear and Beef writer-producer Alex Russell delivers a tightening psychological thriller for the social media influencer era.
Reviews
‘Lurker is the sort of film that lingers with you for days.’
★★★★★
Gregory Elwood, The Playlist
‘A squirmy delight with real insight into both celebrity culture and exploitative relationships, it stands out as one of 2025’s most promising debuts.’
★★★★

Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road.We are open 7 days a week. We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We only show a few adverts – less than most cinemas – and we only play a couple of trailers, so please don’t be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
