Master Class

Apart from the film screenings of ‘Scary Sunday’, the festival invites both filmmakers and horror film fans to attend a Master Class on the creation of special effects, prosthetics and make-up for horror films. The Master Class will be presented by brothers Giorgos and Roulis Alahouzou. On Friday 16.4 (Lemesos) and Saturday 17.4 (Nicosia) the Alahouzou brothers will explain and give examples of the creative and technical processes which they follow for the creation of special effects in horror films. The public will also have the opportunity to see the award-winning work of the Alahouzou brothers in the film Dark Moon Rising (Dana Mennie), a cinematic version of the Werewolf myth which also functions as a ‘reunion’ of cult horror icons such as Sid Haig (known for his participation in the films of Quentin Tarantino and Rob Zombie).
