New Film Releases: April 6-12 2018

Plenty of new releases this week, from the sublime (gay dramas Love, Simon and 120 BPM and classy horrors A Quiet Place and Ghost Stories) to the ridiculous (The Hurricane Heist, that Death Wish remake you’ve been waiting for). If you’re aching to see Dwayne Johnson in giant killer beastie action, you’ll be delighted to find that local multiplexes have previews of Rampage in 3D (Wed & Thur) and bog-standard 2D (Thur only)

Meanwhile, the Watershed continues to celebrate the work of Ingmar Bergman, the Nick Cave concert film comes to cinemas and Christopher Eccleston makes his Royal Shakespeare Compay debut in the live broadcast of Macbeth.

As usual, go here for our comprehensive film listings.
