Back for its sixth year the infamous Night of the Dead once again serves up a bloody collection of some of the best horror features and short films from around the world. From the wonderfully deranged Deadly Tantrum through to the classic Wild Zero – an audience favourite which we bring back for a repeat screening from the first Night of the Dead. You can expect aliens, zombies, demons, special guests, competitions and onstage antics to keep you awake until the early hours. At only £15 Night of the Dead is always a sell out.
