Mayhem Film Festival will return to Broadway, Nottingham on 17-20 October 2024 to showcase the best in international horror, sci-fi and cult cinema, and celebrate its 20th edition. Plans are currently underway and the Mayhem team are on the lookout for the titles that will make up the 2024 line-up.

Following on from last year's edition that saw the UK Premieres of Bertrand Mandico's She Is Conann, Franck Khalfoun's Night of the Hunted and Thomas Sainsbury's Loop Track, the team is excited to be back to present the best in genre cinema and a milestone in the festival's history.

In previous years, Mayhem has welcomed many filmmakers from around the world such as Gareth Edwards (Godzilla, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story) for Monsters, Mark Gatiss (The League of Gentlemen, Sherlock) for a special masterclass, Ben Wheatley for a preview screening of Sightseers, Nicolas Roeg for a special screening of Don't Look Now at St Mary's Church in Nottingham, and cult Canadian collective Astron-6 for The Editor and The Void. Mayhem Film Festival has also hosted special events such as screenings with specially commissioned live scores from 8MM Orchestra, two exclusive live stage readings of unmade Hammer Films screenplays, The Unquenchable Thirst of Dracula in 2015 and Zeppelin V. Pterodactyls in 2017, and a live performance of Tales of HP Lovecraft by The Duke St Workshop featuring British actor Laurence R. Harvey.

Planning is currently underway for Mayhem Film Festival's 20th edition, with more information and announcements coming soon.
