    In addition to celebrating cinematic adaptations of H.P. Lovecraft and his contemporaries, the festival has a strong history of showcasing films by creators who have been heavily inspired by Lovecraft. We're proud to announce that we will be featuring the Pacific Northwest premiere of Clive Barker's Nightbreed: The Cabal Cut, presented by restoration director Russell Cherrington, who will also be available for Q&A.

    Tickets for the festival will go on sale in early March, but you can reserve your place now to experience this amazing premiere by clicking here to support our Kickstarter campaign.

    Only seen in a few cities in the US, this edition restores nearly an hour of footage that was previously thought lost and with it restores Barker's original vision for the film.
