The Never Seen It Film Club

The Never Seen It Film Club is a little different, with discussions and events catered to our members.

Our films are shown in the main space of Accidental Theatre, where we throw out normal seating conventions and get comfortable, so come along to enjoy some classic big-screen epics, away from the distractions of home & phones, and connect with your fellow film buffs.

This is designed as a subscription membership as an experiment in building a community around exciting events and finding new ways to support Accidental the arts and artists. Your membership supports this programme directly and allows it to grow.

Payments are automatic after first sign-up and subscriptions are rolling but can be changed via your account here.

In association with Cinepunked

VOYAGE OF THE BANNED

This season we are taking a trip to the taboo, presenting a series of previously banned and controversial films on the big screen!

From illicit love to depictions of death, from depictions of religion to ultra-violence these are provocative films which have all been deemed prohibited by local and national authorities at some point.

For the first season of 2025 the program has been curated by CinePunked’s Robert JE Simpson, and aims to raise questions about our changing morality, censorship and access.

CinePunked will be leading additional post-screening interactive discussions with audiences exploring some of the themes raised, with conversations recorded for podcast release.

In order of release the new season looks a bit like this!

The rest of the season looks a bit like this!

It's going to be an interesting season to say the very least and hopefully one that stimulates plenty of chats and conversations!
