Indie Film Showcase

Running time: 180 mins

Genre: Horror

Release Date: 21/06/2025

The Independent Horror Society has been dedicated to supporting grassroots horror cinema for over 10 years, and we're so proud to have 2,000 committed horror fans and filmmakers in our ranks.
We have launched the Indie Film Showcase to do what we love best -- bringing incredible short genre films from hugely talented filmmakers, to the wonderful UK horror community.
So join us at the wonderful Genesis Cinema for another evening of fun, meeting new friends, networking, and of course -- over 2 solid hours of incredible short films.

Here's what's in store:

Alexa, Stop.
An errant Alexa causes problems for a girl alone at night.

Babushka
Annie Parker-Reed is desperate to protect her young daughter from the evil she inherited, but when they find an old Babushka doll in the attic, the past finds them both.

Bath Bomb
A possessive doctor prepares an ostensibly romantic bath for his narcissistic boyfriend, but after an accusation of infidelity, things take a deeply disturbing turn.

I See You're Alone
A music producer receives a creepy song from her boss and listens to it alone in her home. The more she listens to it, the scarier it gets. Eyeballs start to materialize around her and before she realizes what’s going on - it’s too late. The music producer dies and her eyes have been taken…

Make Me A Pizza
A very hungry woman tells a pizza delivery guy she can't pay for the pizza she ordered. But can the sex she offers instead of currency possibly equate to the true value of a pizza? Is there anything that can be worthy of pizza, aside from what the market has decided?

Moonlight Haunts
Hallow sleeps, but not alone. Sometimes it’s better to ignore sounds in the night.

Nettle Day
An idealistic young teacher's faith in kindness is ripped apart as she struggles to save a destructive child from being kicked out of school.

Square Peg
Edwin, a lonely, narcissistic vampire, returns home after a restock to lament about life and his yearning to be normal to his best friend Morris - a decapitated head that loathes his guts.

The Birdwatcher
Investigators approach a bird watching hut deep in the forest following the disappearance of a grieving man. As they piece together his final moments, the evidence they gather becomes increasingly unnerving and hard to explain.

The Eyes of Marge
A self-hating social worker traumatised by his sister’s death from domestic abuse, is plagued by phone calls from an unknown woman looking for her dead sister.

The Feed
A man is dragged deep into a black forest, where the sound of a fiddle stirs something in the darkness.

The Tunnel
Four friends on a boat trip face a nightmarish battle for survival in a cursed tunnel.

Wild Animal
A successful woman finds an abandoned baby and is stalked by the mother

Long live indie horror!
