Reel Solutions at Fantastic Films Weekend 2011

Fantastic Films Weekend 2011

The Reel Solutions production team were present at this year’s Fantastic Films Weekend, hosted at the National Media Museum, Bradford. The crew filmed the Screentalk interviews, with legendary horror director Peter Sasdy in conversation with Festival Artistic Director, Tony Earnshaw on Friday night and Sir Jonathan Miller being interviewed by Sir Christopher Frayling on Sunday evening. Both the interviews were very entertaining and gave a great insight into how much the industry has changed over the decades.

Fantastic Films Weekend

Location: National Media Museum, Bradford
Link out: Click here

10th – 12th June 2011
Description: The Fantastic Films Weekend is the UK’s fastest growing festival dedicated to offering an annual celebration of old and new horror, fantasy and sci-fi cinema and television, hosted by the National Media Museum in Bradford.

Meet special guests Peter Sasdy and Jonathan Miller, and re-acquaint yourselves with Messrs Cushing, Lee and Price, the latter celebrating his centenary in 2011.

With the deaths of Ingrid Pitt and Roy Ward Baker we bid farewell to two old f(r)iends with screenings of their films. We bring you a mini tribute to Vincent Price and are proud to present a rare treat, The Karnstein trilogy.

Seen them before? Then watch them again where they should be seen: on the movie screen. In the dark. With friends. Or strangers.

Feel the fear…

Tony Earnshaw
Artistic Director, FFW
