The 2018 Sydney Underground Film Festival is on from Thursday 13th until Sunday 16th September at The Factory Theatre, Marrickville. Dedicated to nurturing an alternative film culture, the festival programs unique, quality independent films that transgress the status quo and challenge the conservative conventions of filmmaking. The festival is devoted to renewing local interest in independent and experimental film as part of an international underground film culture and aims to change an ingrained culture of cinematic complacency and revitalise an enthusiasm for cinema.

Which means three days and four nights of absolutely crazy cinematic experiences, from new offerings like the surreal, blood-soaked Mandy, starring genre fave Nicolas Cage, to classic schlockers like Maniac Cop and Puppet Master: The Littlest Reich. There are provocative comedies like New Zealand DIY SF Mega Time Squad, transgressive and angry cinema like The Misandrists and the controversial Revenge, rediscovered classics like Spirits of the Air, Gremlins of the Clouds, and much, much more.

And now we’re offering our readers a chance to win a free taste. Thanks to our friends at SUFF, we are giving away one double pass to the opening night film (Mega Time Squad) and party – on Thursday, September 13; two double passes to the screening of Spirits of the Air, Gremlins of the Clouds on Saturday, September 15, followed by a Q&A with director Alex Proyas; and two double passes for Revenge on Sunday, September 16.

To be in the running, simply email competitions@filmink.com.au with SUFF GIVEAWAY in the subject line and tell us what film on this year’s slate you’re most looking forward to and why – you can check out the program here. Entries close Wednesday, September 12, 2018.
