OFFSCREEN ON TOUR 2025 | Offscreen
A selection of several Offscreen films at different locations.
TIMESTALKER
Each time Agnes is reincarnated in a different historical period she falls for the same man, similarly reincarnated, before meeting a gory death. With its mad wigs and dildo gags, Lowe's anarchic anti-romcom may look like wacky comedy, but it's also a sly subversion of society's fixation on finding a perfect soulmate.
In collaboration with JEF Festival.
THE DEVIL RIDES OUT
Christopher Lee, sporting a dapper goatee, plays one of the good guys for a change in Hammer's spiffing adaptation of Dennis Wheatley's novel of the occult, set in 1920s England. His mission? To extricate a young couple from the clutches of satanists by storming their May Day orgy among the stones of Salisbury Plain.
PREVENGE
Widow Ruth is seven months pregnant and convinced that her unborn baby is instructing her to kill. She embarks on a violent killing spree in this pitch-black slasher comedy on the fear of motherhood. Ruth is played by director Alice Lowe (Sightseers, Timestalker) – who herself was pregnant during the film’s shoot.
In the presence of Alice Lowe.
THE WICKER MAN
A pious police sergeant searches for a missing schoolgirl on a remote Scottish island where he is shocked by the pagan traditions, presided over by Christopher Lee at his most patrician. This uniquely unsettling landmark in folk horror, hailed as "The Citizen Kane of Horror Movies", builds up to a devastating climax.

ODDITY
A psychiatrist insists it was one of his ex-patients who killed his wife in this supernatural murder mystery, but the dead woman's twin sister, a blind clairvoyant, is not so sure. So she moves into the murder scene, an old house undergoing renovation, to seek out the truth - with the help of her freaky wooden doll!

ISLAND OF DEATH
A nice English couple, honeymooning on Mykonos, turn out to be sex killers who sadistically murder nearly everyone they meet. But one of them gets their comeuppance in a brilliant ending! Carnage, rape and goat-shagging, in a beautifully filmed setting, earned this a place on the UK's Video Nasty list in the 1980s.
