The London Independent Film Festival has announced the line-up for their 18th edition. This year, like so many festivals, the content will be online so will open up the accessibility to thousands more people. A record number of films will be screened this year when the festival takes place between April 9th and 18th.

Among the genre movies in the line-up are: Under the Radar: The Mike Edmonds Story, a documentary by Simon J. Frith about the actor best known for his roles in several Star Wars films, Time Bandits, and Flash Gordon amongst many others. The Horror Crowd, in which actor Ruben Pla discusses what makes the horror community so special with plenty of well-known names and faces. Stephanie Trainer’s The Clearing, in which a journalist wakes in her car and unable to find her way home. The programme will also include a host of short films.

There will be Q&As with many of the filmmakers and the festival will have writer/director Howard J. Ford as a special guest, who will be hosting a masterclass on his work, which includes The Dead, The Dead 2: India, Never Let Go, and The Lockdown Hauntings.
