Weapons

In Cinemas August 7

When all but one child from the same class mysteriously vanish on the same night at exactly the same time, a community is left questioning who or what is behind their disappearance.

Eddington

In Cinemas August 21

Lido Cinemas, Melbourne
Ritz Cinemas, Sydney

When a murder shatters the fragile order of a town on lockdown in the summer of 2020, residents turn violently on each other as Sheriff Joe Cross (Joaquin Phoenix) and Mayor Ted Garcia (Pedro Pascal) face off in a battle that threatens to rip the town apart. Brought to life by a powerhouse ensemble cast (Emma Stone, Austin Butler) and with filmmaker Ari Aster at the helm, EDDINGTON is a culture-shaking event film – provocative, urgent, and impossible to ignore – that unpacks the forces that led to where we are today.

The Toxic Avenger – Special Preview

See it first on Wednesday 27 August, 8:30pm.

Lido Cinemas, Melbourne
Ritz Cinemas, Sydney

The gleefully gory The Toxic Avenger is hitting the screens of our FFFA host venues Lido Cinemas, Hawthorn (Melbourne) and Ritz Cinemas, Randwick (Sydney).

When a downtrodden janitor, Winston Gooze, is exposed to a catastrophic toxic accident, he’s transformed into a new kind of hero: The Toxic Avenger. Now, Toxie must rise from outcast to savior, taking on ruthless corporate overlords and corrupt forces who threaten his son, his friends, and his community. In a world where greed runs rampant…justice is best served radioactive.
