Classic Season: Fright's Out!

Join your horror host, Dr Michael Goodrum, at UPP this October to explore the long-running connections between queerness and horror. In films from the 1930s to the 1990s, we’ll explore how viewing strategies and queer coding bring nuance and texture to classics of the genre – and how 1950s B movies have unwittingly become camp masterpieces. Whether you want to be entertained, enlightened, or en-frightened, the UPP is the place to be this Hallowe’en!

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!
