Revelation Perth International Film Festival looks at the goings-on of the film world in Western Australia for the month of October (and beyond).
Australian Revelations
Australian Revelations is Revelation Film Festival's monthly screening programme and as it’s nearly Halloween, they’re bringing you a taste of horror with a film that’s been called 'Pretty In Pink' meets 'Wolf Creek'!
Starting out as a coming-of-age movie, there's a rapid gear change and something far nastier emerges in this blood-splattered horror classic-to-be. Expect mirror disco balls, prom queens, dirty kitchens, nails and blood. To say any more would give too much away.
There's a real joy for gore and grossness here, a true celebration of the genre devoid of apology. 'The Loved Ones' is a must see for fans of the genre.
28 October, The Backlot Perth.
Russian Resurrection Film Festival

The 2019 Festival will screen brand-new features and retrospective classics and opens with the dynamic comedy 'Mistresses' and an exclusive after party.
