New Film Releases: September 21-27 2018

There’s truly something for everyone this week, ranging from kiddie gothic horror The House with a Clock in its Walls to that laudably disgraceful Gaspar Noé fella’s drug-crazed musical Climax, plus music doc Matangi/Maya/M.I.A., action flick Mile 22 and spooker The Little Stranger.

The packed Encounters festival kicks off on Tuesday with a day of free screenings in Millennium Square. Highlights from the first three days include a rare screening of the macabre Bristol-made The Secret Adventures of Tom Thumb and Compass Presents’ atmospheric Arcadia events in the Boiling Wells amphitheatre.

Elsewhere, The Godfather is back in multiplexes, The Dude continues to abide on his 20th anniversary (and pops up in the Living in the Future’s Past documentary at the Watershed, and Ian McKellen’s King Lear is beamed live to cinemas.
