Lost Vampires season at ICA & The Prince Charles Cinema (25 SEP to 20 OCT 2021)
Lost Vampires is a season of four films that each takes the vampire myth & transforms it into something excitingly original.
Submitted by: Geoffrey Badger.
Curated and programmed by Geoffrey Badger as part of the NFTS Film Studies, Programming & Curation MA, Lost Vampires is another great season to be delivered by this year’s cohort (see also Not Like Us?).
Lost Vampires consists of four outstanding films. All are one-time vampire forays by art-house directors and each film takes the vampire myth and transforms it into something excitingly original.
The four feature films are:
- NADJA 35mm d. Michael Almereyda, 1994 + Q&A with composer/sound designer Simon Fisher Turner & actors Galaxy Craze & Karl Geary at ICA (25 SEP 18:30).
- ONLY LOVERS LEFT ALIVE d. Jim Jarmusch, 2013 at The Prince Charles (05 OCT 18:00).
- A GIRL WALKS HOME ALONE AT NIGHT d. Ana Lily Amirpour, 2014 at The Prince Charles (13 OCT 18:10).
- TROUBLE EVERY DAY 35mm d. Claire Denis, 2001 at The Prince Charles (20 OCT 18:00).

Lost Vampires screens at ICA & The PCC, & is booking now (25 SEP to 20 OCT).
