The STARBURST International Film Festival, which takes place on March 13th and 14th at Social7 at The Landing, MediaCityUK, Salford in Manchester has revealed even more short films that will be screened over the event.
We’re also delighted to announce that Laurence R. Harvey will be back with us following his popular appearance at our first festival, when we had the UK premiere of Frankenstein Created Bikers (2016, James Bickert). This year, we’re honoured to have Laurence provide a live commentary to The Human Centipede 2 (Full Sequence) for the first time ever! Expect lots of behind the scenes nuggets and some very irreverent humour. It goes without saying, this won’t be for the faint of heart!
We can also confirm some more short films that will be part of the schedule: the supernatural Circle of Stone is directed by Mark Andrews (one of the directors of Pixar’s 2012 film Brave) and stars Vic Mignogna and Danielle Levine; Star Wars: Origins is Phil Hawkins’ impressive fan film that has archaeologists discovering something from a long time ago…. Oscar’s Bell stars Peaky Blinders’ Paul Bullion and is directed by Chris Cronin; we have the world premiere of Thursday Night, the latest short from Rebecca Melvin Phillips; Terminal Hospitality from Olly Philpott-Smith; David Newton’s The Last; we have the latest episode of the fun web series Demonologist for Hire: The Case of the Residential Evil; the hilarious Quiet Carriage, directed by Ben S. Hyland; SPECIAL* from Michael Stratigakis; Aaron Barrocas’ Half-Cocked; and Carles Jofre’s retired superhero short Capitán Kinesis. Watch this space for announcements of more feature films that will be included in the packed schedule.
