London's most beautiful open-air cinema returns to Somerset House this summer. A special preview of the Norwegian movie ‘Troll Hunter’ will be shown during a night of monster mayhem together with Gremlins and Tremors on Saturday August 6th.
Some of the summer’s highlight is the twelve-day series of outdoor cinema at Somerset house, running from July 27th – August 7th. Featuring everything from UK premieres to cult action thrillers, romantic comedies to film classics – all showing on a state-of-the-art screen with full surround sound.
On August 6th , Somerset House unleash a three-headed line-up of fun and scary creature features, with cute but deadly Gremlins, Kevin Bacon versus giant worms in Tremors and a special preview of the Norwegian Troll Hunter that proves, once and for all, that trolls are very real indeed. They are just effectively hidden by the Norwegian government. The secret is soon to be discovered by a group of students filming their first documentary about a series of unlawful bear shootings. Thomas and his camera crew repeatedly run into mysterious loner Hans, who they decide to follow. Unwisely, as it happens, for Hans works for the top secret Troll Security Service, and a rogue Ringlefinch is on the loose. The film is filled with humour and witty comments and parallels to old myths about trolls. In well known Blair Witch Project style the thrilling mock documentary is ready to persuade you that trolls’ do exists. Are you a Christian? Beware; the trolls can smell your blood!
