Starve Acre – Parent & Baby screening
Dark and sinister forces invade an archaeologist’s home as he investigates a mythic folklore about an ancient oak tree on his land. A stylish adaptation of Andrew Michael Hurley’s folk horror novel.
Director: Daniel Kokotajlo
98 mins / 2023 / UK
Starve Acre is an unsettling British folk horror tale set in rural 1970s Yorkshire. Directed and written by Daniel Kokotajlo, it’s based on the award-winning 2019 novel Starve Acre by Andrew Michael Hurley, and features a score by Matthew Herbert.
Starring great performances from Matt Smith and Morfydd Clark, when their son starts acting strangely, a couple unwittingly allow sinister forces into their home, awakening a long-dormant ancient evil rooted deep in the countryside.
New! Parent and Baby screening
Friday 1 November 12pm
Our Parent and Baby screenings are monthly screening for parents/carers with babies under 12 months. Babies can sleep, burble or cry – and parents/carers get a chance to catch up with some cinema. Babies go free! These screenings include Descriptive Subtitling when available and the sound will be lower than usual, and the lights up for your child’s comfort.
We have restarted these screenings due to popular demand, however the cinema is not accessible for buggies due to our steep staircase therefore, and so all parents are kindly asked to bring their babies in a sling for the screenings as we have no buggy park or lift access. Please take special care on the stairs.
“Finally, an independent cinema in Hastings that shows films for parents where you can bring your baby, have a hot chocolate and enjoy the latest releases. Thank you Electric Palace for making us so welcome!” – Trina Everall
Please note that babies (under 12 months) are only allowed to attend our special Parent & Baby and Relaxed screenings, and may not be brought in to our regular screenings. Please see our Terms of Admittance.
If you’re part of a local parent group and would like to discuss our upcoming Parent and Baby screenings and would like to get involved, please send us a message.
