We Don't Talk About Film Club

May 15, 2022

Leicester Horror Con may be on hiatus since the pandemic shut down their 2020 event, but they're keeping busy with other projects including the brand new Leicester Film Club.


Leicester Film Club is a new city centre night that plans to screen cult, horror and classic films, providing an alternative to the current crop of blockbusters available at the cinema.


Events will be themed, including trailers, music, introductions and sometimes panels, discussions or performance.


And the group's first screening, in fitting with the Brewdog venue vibe, will be "Punxploitation"-themed and will feature punk film trailers, an introduction by academic Tom Watson and main feature of A24's horror thriller Green Room (2015).


The film stars the late Anton Yelchin and also features Patrick Stewart as a white supremacist gang leader.


The group are very excited and can't wait for audiences to join them to for a 'thrilling ride' with local film fans.


The event is due to take place on Sunday 12th June 2022 at BrewDog in Leicester (8 Friar Lane, Leicester LE1 5RA)


Please note the screening room is upstairs and unfortunately access is limited.


Full schedule of the evening:


  • 6:30pm Doors,
  • 7:00pm Trailers/Introduction,
  • 7:30pm Film - Green Room (2015) 18+


Tickets: £3.50 in advance, £5 on the door

I’ve always been a big fan of screening films in unique and unusual places. With streaming platforms competing with post-Covid cinema going, the war for viewers has never been hotter. For better or worse, at the click of a button you can sit on the sofa and scroll thousands of movies without so much as standing up.

Screenwriter and filmmaker Aaron Sorkin sure knows how to write a courtroom scene. From the iconic “You can’t handle the truth” in A Few Good Men to his 2020 film The Trial of the Chicago 7, the celebrated writer mixes both memorable dialogue with fascinating legal fighting to perfection.
