Ur Favourite Scary Movie is a digital offshoot of forthcoming new work CRY CRY KILL KILL (due to premiere in 2021 or when we stop living in a global pandemic).

Ur Favourite Scary Movie originally premiered at HOME, Manchester as part of their 2021/21 Theatre Season, and then toured to Pound Arts, as part of Magic & Mayhem Festival 2020 and Attenborough Arts Centre’s Tale of the Unexpected 2021 Season.

Ur Favourite Scary Movie is an epic, indulgent audio and film experience which invites you into the sonic world of horror. Using the practice of Foley-making, binaural sound, spoken text and familiar loops from ‘ur favourite scary movie’, the work is part horror dreamscape, part investigation into a cultural hunger for HORROR. It asks what keeps you up at night, where fear dances with the imagination, and what it means to  make friends with the unknown. 

Bloodthirsty, thrill-hungry, and featuring an unending array of horror movie tropes, Ur Favourite Scary Movie promises you a horror experience like no other (and one which you don’t need to leave your sofa for).

Ur Favourite Scary Movie is available solely as an audio experience for one, with or without the addition of a video component. There is also a captioned version available. Choose ur own scary adventure, babes.
