Scream18

Directed by Wes Craven | USA | 1996 | 1h 51m | Starring Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox, Skeet Ulrich, Matthew Lillard, Drew Barrymore

A costumed killer with a love of scary movies is stalking the small town of Woodsboro. Wes Craven’s direction and Kevin Williamson’s script are as sharp as Ghostface’s knives and, while the body count rises, Williamson argues that “the Scream movies are coded in gay survival.” Presented as part of the Fright’s Out! season, with an introduction by Dr Michael Goodrum.

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!
