Here’s a full list of the films returning to cinemas across UK & Ireland this Halloween throughout October, and where you can watch them.


Shaun of the Dead (20th Anniversary)

shaun of the dead

There comes a day in every man's life when he has to get off the couch…and kill some zombies. When flesh-eating zombies are on the hunt for a bite to eat, it's up to slacker Shaun (Simon Pegg) and his best pal (Nick Frost) to save their friends and family from becoming the next entrée.


Shaun of the Dead first graced cinema screens in 2004, quickly becoming a cultural phenomenon and solidifying its place in the annals of horror-comedy history. Directed by Edgar Wright and starring Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, the film has since amassed a dedicated following who have eagerly awaited its return to the big screen- from 27th September 2024.



Saw (20th Anniversary)

SAW — the Twisted Pictures landmark film that spawned an iconic horror franchise — celebrates the 20th anniversary of John Kramer (Tobin Bell), aka Jigsaw, the notorious serial killer whose moral code demands his victims rekindle their love for life…or else. In SAW, two men awaken in a grim room, shackled and terrified. Their only way out? Obey Jigsaw’s sickening instructions — even if it means killing each other. Dismember the terror anew with the Unrated edition and re-explore Kramer’s intricate games and fiendishly clever traps, set with the most precious of gifts: gratitude to be among the living.



A Nightmare on Elm Street (40th Anniversary)
