Het grootste filmfestival voor de fantastische film in Nederland, met het beste op het gebied van fantasy, horror en sciencefiction.

Van 29 oktober tot en met 8 november duikt Imagine Fantastic Film Festival in Ghost in the Feed, een themaprogramma over de angsten en fascinaties die telkens weer ontstaan wanneer een nieuwe mediatechnologie zijn intrede doet. Een tweede themaprogramma richt zich op magisch realisme in de Latijns-Amerikaanse cinema, met onder andere de Mexicaanse klassieker Macario. Naast deze programma’s zijn er de wereldpremière van de Nederlandse cyberthriller PH1SHed_, 4K-restauraties van Donnie Darko en My Bloody Valentine en natuurlijk de nieuwste fantastische films.

Imagine Fantastic Film Festival met je Cinevillepas
Met je Cinevillepas kun je naar alle voorstellingen en special events van Imagine in LAB111 en de Filmhallen.

Vergeet niet om, voordat je naar de film gaat, je Cinevillepas te laten scannen in het filmtheater. Anders heb je geen geldig kaartje en loopt het festival de inkomsten mis.

Let op: wil je heel veel films komen kijken? Er geldt voor Cinevillers altijd een maximum van 15 reserveringen per persoon – zowel voor voorstellingen die binnen als buiten dit festival vallen.
