Known for it’s educational establishments & being a beautiful bit of Great Britain, you’d normally associate Cambridge with posh accents & a trip punting on the river. That’s all about to change as the history city is about to get trashed & spray day glo with the inaugural Extreme B Movie Festival.
We are proud to announce the first ever Cambridge
B-Movie film festival. This festival is born from our love of gory cheesy B-movies from the funny to the extreme.
Our selection this year is a little on the wild side with a nice balance of new and old along with a healthy bucket or two of blood.
B-movies have existed all the way through film history from the early silent days right up to recent times. With films being made for little or no budget the team involved often find creative ways to achieve results, which adds a quality found nowhere else.
From eggboxes lining space ship corridors to extras in giant rubber suits, all these fabulous touches add pure class to any feature.
With many of these B-movies and grindhouse films no longer seeing the light of day in a mainstream cinema, it has become extremely hard to view these movies in the correct setting.
This is why small film festivals like this must continue to be supported.
The selection we have chosen to show all come with an extreme warning, with many films not having a UK certification we have taken it upon ourselves to classify this whole event as strictly ADULTS ONLY.
