Final film, The Reeds, announced for Manchester's Grimm Up North horror festival
13th Oct 09
 The second newsletter for Manchester's GRIMM UP NORTH horror festival has just dropped into our inbox with news of a late addition to the line-up, the new UK horror film The Reeds.
A weekend boating party turns into a nightmare for a group of young Londoners when they stumble upon a terrifying secret hidden in the reeds.
Produced by Simon Sprackling (director of cult horror comedy Funnyman as well as sterling genre documentaries on cult 70s exploitation actresses Linda Hayden and Judy Geeson), directed by Nick Cohen (Voodoo Lagoon), and with a screenplay by Chris Baker (Long Time Dead), the film stars Will Mellor (Two Pint of Lager, Casualty), Scarlett Alice Johnson (Adulthood, Eastenders), Emma Catherwood (Holby City, Spirit Trap), Geoff Bell (Rock and Rolla, Solomon Kane, Stardust).
Check out the eerie, atmospheric trailer HERE.
Special events include a fantastic retro-screening of Hellraiser with original Cenobites Doug Bradley (AKA PIN HEAD), Nicholas Vince (AKA CHATTERER) and Simon Bamford (AKA BUTTERBALL) on Friday 30th October. This is your chance to get as up close and personal (and to get your brilliant DVD boxset of the Hellraiser series signed (for a small fee).
