Slasher Genre Film Club

We will be running a compulsory Genre Film Club (for your Module 4 exam) over the next half term. It is vital that you attend the or twice weekly film showings (on  Tuesday and Thursday!) as without doing this you will not be able to follow what happens in the lessons each week or contribute to the discussions. Also, it's far less scary watching with friends!

Please don't say: "I've seen it already" because we've heard it already. Each performance will be in DF05 and will start at 3.30pm promptly. Registers will be taken and you will be expected to take notes so bring pen and paper. You'll be expected to fill in the 'repertoires of elements' sheets after each screening and a different pairing will be leading the discussion about the film in the next lesson.

Make sure you put all the following dates in your diaries and seek to cancel and re-arrange any prior appointments you may already have…your A Levels must be your priority!!
