One-day folk horror film festival with a range of screenings and a folk horror merchandise stall at Derby QUAD & Cinema.
Darkness In The Fields returns to Derby QUAD & Cinema on Saturday 10 April 2027, a one-day festival dedicated to folk horror. It's a focused day of screenings that gathers some of the subgenre's best new offerings, and it runs throughout the day rather than just a single evening, so you can settle in for a proper session.
The programme wanders through the hallmarks of folk horror: dark forests, strange cults and the kind of terrifying monsters the subgenre is known for. There's a range of films screening across the day, and a folk horror merchandise stall running alongside, so you can browse between screenings.
It's held at Derby QUAD & Cinema in the Cathedral Quarter, which is more than just a cinema. It's a gallery, bar, lounge and workshop open to everyone, with exhibitions by local, national and international artists and a commitment to making the arts accessible to all. Its patrons include actor John Hurt CBE, actor and director Paddy Considine, local actor Jack O'Connell and actor and musician John Tams.
