Ever wanted to go to a quality film festival, but been unable to offload the children? Ever sat through an Alvin and the Chipmunks movie and cursed the lack of varied children’s entertainment on offer? Ever wanted to watch a hand-picked film with like-minded and passionate people? From 22 October – 6 November, Dundee has the answer.

October is, of course, a time dominated by ghouls, zombies and good ol’ fashioned frightfulness. But with All Hallow’s Eve not falling until the last day of the month, what on Earth are you supposed to do until then? Well you can stop fearing death by boredom and leave your demise to the demons, because here at Best For Film we’ve leapt on the case and compiled some of our favourite film events happening this month. After all, if you’re going to get shocked by skeletons and mauled by monsters, you might as well have some fun first.
