Next month, at the Wexner Center for the Arts, at the Ohio State University, will be holding an International Horror Film Festival showcasing films from around the world, from Italy to Japan to France and more. It’s one of those times when I wished to be retired and wealthy, only to be able to travel around attending these different festivals! They have a great lineup here with some truly amazing examples of the horror genre, but also incredible pieces of cinema as well. The festival runs from July 10th through Aug. 14th. Most of them are single screenings, but there are a couple of nights where there is a double feature. Below is the list of films playing:
- Black Sunday (1960) – Director Mario Bava (Italy) on July 10th at 7pm
- Dr. Jekyll and Sister Hyde (1971) – Director Roy Ward Baker (UK) on July 12th at 7pm, followed by Baby’s Blood (1990) – Director Alain Robak (France) at 8:50pm
