The Pocket Film Of Superstitions

What on Earth is The Pocket Film of Superstitions? Well, dear reader - let me explain:

On the one hand it is a parade of weird and wonderful faces amidst a hall of smoke and mirrors. The less cryptic me would also say it is a quaint and creepy merging of folkloric horror, the supernatural and dadaist humour that looks at various superstitions through the ages.

The film features a wonderful roster of beautiful performers including a stunning array of first ladies of the silver-scream in
Caroline Munro (Maniac, Slaughter High, Dracula AD 1972), Lynn Lowry (Shivers, The Crazies, Cat People), Dani Thompson (Serial Kaller, My Bloody Banjo) and Annabella Rich (Eating Miss Campbell) - as well as a whos who of the current British indie horror boom.

Taking you on this journey with his toffee warbles is none other than living cult legend The Shend; he of Dadaist punk/post-punk bands The Cravats, The Very Things and star of cult cinematic oddities as Pervirella, Schemers and every British sitcom you ever did see. He is a most fine narrator indeed!

And as for 'Pocket Film' - well you know those pocket books we all read as nippers? This is like one of those, but a film. Make sense? Well it isn't entirely supposed to...

The film premiered at the 50 YEARS OF CLASSIC BRITISH HORROR event in Great Yarmouth back in July screening between the classics THEATRE OF BLOOD and THE WICKER MAN. Britt Ekland and Medeline Smith were present, and it was a dream come true for this humble film-maker. We now seek further screenings to those lovely horror hounds who appreciate the strange, quaint, esoteric, silly, spooky, and - perhaps most vitally - the unique!

A labour of love with a production spanning several years on very little money, but a lot of heart and soul: THE POCKET FILM OF SUPERSTITIONS will charm, enchant and weave a magical spell that will make for a unique viewing experience!
