Since 2007, the London-based Duke Mitchell Film Club has built a devoted following by celebrating the strangest, funniest, most disreputable corners of cinema, and their FrightFest appearances have become legendary late-night traditions themselves. The Duke Mitchell Film Party is a lovingly assembled barrage of obscure images, surprise guests, giveaways, and whatever else the team has unearthed in the past twelve months. Nothing is sacred, everything is possible, and the audience is part of the chaos. Previous parties have been praised as ‘wild, hilarious, raucous’ evenings of entertainment – the place to be when the regular screenings are done and common sense has left the building.
Curated by the Duke Mitchell team and shaped by years of obsessive digging through cinema’s forgotten margins, The Duke Mitchell Film Party is not so much a screening but a collective act of movie madness: unpredictable, communal, deeply cinephile, and gleefully stupid. Come prepared for the kind of moments that only make sense at midnight, with a packed room of fellow fans. Let’s lose our minds together!
