🎥 BUNKER CINEMA NOW AVAILABLE! 🎥

Want to host a screening of a film so niche only 8 people want to watch it? Looking for somewhere affordable for a short film night? Need to practice a Power Point presentation for work tomorrow? Or maybe it's date night, you forgot to book a restaurant and you just want to watch your favourite film (The Running Man) without any interruptions?

Bunker Cinema is now for hire at the standard rate of £10/hr + an extra £10 for equipment. The seats aren't Vue cinema recliners the price reflects that. With 6 comfy camping chairs and two beanbags down the front, you could even do a double bill. 🎞️🎞️

Furthermore, you can say you watched a film in the smallest cinema in the world*. Great birthday gift idea! 🎁 Maximum seating is 8, and you're welcome to bring your own drinks and snacks. 🍿🍺

* Not official, but it's smaller than the 12-seater in Ontario, and seats fewer than the UK's solar powered mobile Sol Cinema.

Captain Will Maclachlan presides over Bunker Film Club screening of Threads. Thank you to our special guests who took the grueling journey into nuclear oblivion with us and participated in simulating discussion afterwards, including the crucial question: Is Threads the most terrifying film we've ever seen? The answer... a very probable yes. What sets it apart from other psychologically horrifying films (like those by Lars von Trier and Gaspar Noé) is its brutal realism. If you are interested to watch Threads, here is a good free link... https://vimeo.com/305272247

Also watch this brilliant short film for Save the Children (inspired by Threads) by acclaimed local film-maker https://youtu.be/RBQ-IoHfimQ

And stay tuned for future—and lighter—Bunker screenings. 🎥

The first Bunker film screening is here and it really is the perfect choice for a subterranean wartime hideout... THREADS.

Considered by us to be one of the most terrifying films ever made, 1984 film Threads prophesies—in chilling detail—the fallout of a nuclear bomb falling on Sheffield. We're celebrating its 40th anniversary with a series of exclusive Bunker screenings starting Sun 29th Sep (8pm).

And because seating is limited to 8 people... IT'S COMPETITION TIME! To win tickets, simply:
• Create a short video on Instagram of your first moments after the bomb hits.
• Or take a picture and post on Instagram of your distress message after the nuclear strike.
• Tag in your post.

Deadline is 5pm, Fri 20th Sep, so we can pick the best entries and maybe get a mention on the BBC Radio 4 program featuring a Threads documentary (Sat 21st Sep, 8pm). Listen here... https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00236xg

We look forward to seeing you Threads fans getting creative and joining us for some apocalyptic Bunker sessions!

Behind-the-scenes shot of The Bunker's collaboration with . We needed to shoot in a really cool Margate café with awesome coffee and delicious sandwiches even we could afford on an artist budget, so the natural choice was brand new .

Had a visit from this guy today. Thoroughly confused Rosie dog, and did some things in The Bunker that should not (but will) be seen. Tested its soundproofing capabilities and if it doesn't work, either the neighbours are deaf or they don't care if I'm screaming for my life down there. Awesome video coming soon from

Is it the world's smallest recording studio or the world's biggest sound booth?
This topic will be debated in a forthcoming podcast recorded in The Bunker. In the meantime, we welcome our latest podcasters Tash & Marthe to our subterranean version of Berberian Sound Studio. If anyone knows Toby Jones, tell him we're sitting on a humdinger of a sequel.
