Entranced by a midday haze, high-heeled footsteps echo through the seemingly empty department store. Insistent on just looking, a swift glance in the mirror reveals a masked figure intimately tracing your steps. From the perfume counter and back home, leaving our female protagonists to wonder “How do I meet the strangest men, they always seem to find me?”
A collection of principally female-directed films, sourced from backrooms and VHS archives enveloped in dust, Uncanny Sally explores themes of the body, femininity and the uncanny in a low-fi, DIY style that’ll leave you feverish.
Dive into an analog-induced hysteria, where female anxieties, entrenched in noir and CRT hues, spill from sinks and stomachs, and lurk amongst mannequins and magicians.
The screening will be followed by a 80's horror themed quiz. Expect prizes!
Contains themes of animal cruelty, scenes of graphic violence or injury, scenes of harassment and flashing images.
This programme is curated by London College of Communication BA Film and Screen Studies students (Teodor Cholakov, Lydia Karagiannopoulou, Lily Hitchen, Gio Kwon and Laura Witt).
