SUNDAY 10, 9pm screening SOUL'D OUT!
So as not to oversell the session on Friday July 16th, on-line ticket sales have ceased but tickets are still available at the Astor.
Part supernatural / occult horror and part psychological thriller, The Sculptor follows a young couple - Paul and Renee - who retreat to a rural idyll to focus on their work. However, something is amiss and an uncanny atmosphere, strange noises and glimpses of something dark begin to haunt them. Sculptor Paul has a secret in his past and the price of success may be higher than he anticipated.
Perth based novelist Christopher Kenworthy co-wrote and directed this film which mixes a rural gothic Australian claustrophobia with a classic Faustian tale of black magic. The film's cast includes Paul David-Goddard, Melanie Vallejo (familiar to genre fans from her appearance in Dying Breed) and Georgina Andrews, as well as Gordon Honeycombe who brings a theatrical gravitas to his performance.
