FILM & AFTERPARTY

Suspiria (1977) & DJ Set with Church of Italo

Archive Film at Fabrica (27 October to 28 October 2023, 7.00pm - 12.00am)
Join Brighton-based film collective ProjectOurs for a special Halloween screening of Dario Argento’s 1977 Suspiria, followed by a live DJ set from Church of Italo. Inspired by the maximalist visuals of both giallo cinema and Catholicism, ProjectOurs has curated a night of horror and high camp at Fabrica.

PART 1: 7 - 9 - FILM: Suspiria / 1977 / 1hr 40 mins / Rated 18


Dario Argento’s cult classic Suspiria (1977) is a vibrant journey into the bright red world of hysteria and supernatural chaos. Spotlighting the point at which femininity meets madness, there’s an intrinsic pull to this blood-soaked horror which has made it a crowd favourite for decades.


Set within the Black Forest, Germany, Suspiria follows American ballet dancer Suzy Bannion as she joins a prestigious dance school. Following a chain of brutal murders, Suzy begins to realise that things are not as they seem at the Tanz Akademie, leading her into a hidden world of cult ritual and sacrifice.



PART 2: 9.30 - Midnight - AFTERPARTY: DJ Set from Church of Italo


Church of Italo is a collective of Brighton-based DJs and artists, hosting queer club nights and fashion events around the city. Combining high-fashion with Catholic camp, their DJs play house, electro, italo and ballroom.


Perhaps the perfect accompaniment to the high camp horror of Argento, Church of Italo join us for a special Halloween set. Guests are encouraged to dress up!

“A hallucinatory, erotic, still terrifying Italian horror masterpiece, equal parts ‘Snow White’ and opium dream.”

Adam Nayman, The Ringer.
