A Night Filled with Horror
The Institut Lumière will show four of the most well-known horror films across the night of 9th-10th March 2019. The schedule is as follows:
1. 8pm – Carrie – directed by B. De Palma
2. 10:30pm – The Shining – directed by S. Kubrick
3. 1:30am – Stand By Me – directed by R. Reiner
4. 3:30am – Creepshow – directed by G. Romero
Films Based on The Books of Stephen King
All four films share one common thread – they are all based on novels by famous horror author Stephen King, other than Creepshow, which was a screenplay written by King. King’s horror writing is infamous, and so are the films that have stemmed from the novels. If you’re a fan of horror films, it’s certainly not a night to miss out on.
More than Just Films
In the short breaks between the four films, the Institut Lumière promises entertainment, readings of extracts from the books and even a few surprises!
The Institut Lumière
The horror film marathon will take place at Lyon’s Institut Lumière.
The film night will take place at the Institut Lumière in Monplaisir, which celebrates Lyon’s Lumière brothers, who were pioneers in cinematography. What better place can there be to watch some of the best horror films than the place where the cinematograph was invented?
