15th Annual SF Irish Film Festival • Sep 27-29


Here’s a sampling of what has come our way in 2018

The Cured • March 9

In a world ravaged for years by a virus that turns the infected into zombie-like cannibals, a cure is at last found and the wrenching process of reintegrating the survivors back into society begins. Among the formerly afflicted is Senan (Sam Keeley), a young man haunted by the horrific acts he committed while infected. Welcomed back into the family of his widowed sister-in-law (Ellen Page), Senan attempts to restart his life—but is society ready to forgive him and those like him? Or will fear and prejudice once again tear the world apart? Pulsing with provocative parallels to our troubled times, The Cured is a smart, scary, and hauntingly human tale of guilt and redemption. Opens at San Francisco Opera Plaza, March 9

“This may be one of the first horror movies where you may wind up preferring the zombies over actual people, who can be the real hell.” – The Hollywood Reporter
