If the short film world needs all the backing it can get right now – in the face of a UK arts funding crisis and short film festivals going bust left, right and centre – then genre shorts are in arguably the most need of some love. Not only are they the most underrepresented on the circuit, they’re also a real who’s who of “next-big-thing”s. A goldmine of renegade storytellers, ballsy choreographers, and all-round future commercial artistes who are but one decent budget away from making something seriously explosive.
So Forbidden Worlds introducing their new ‘Genre Filmmakers of the Future’ showcases for 2024 – giving up and comers a chance to project their stuff on the biggest screen in the South West – is a very exciting prospect indeed. And the 12 selected films certainly don’t disappoint, covering a broad spectrum of genre treats from sumptuous animations to stupendously silly B-movie send-ups.

Stars: Daniel Stisen, Samantha Schnitzler, Yennis Cheung, Lauren Okadigbo, Byron Gibson, Phillip Ray Tommy | Written by Nicole Bartlett | Directed by Brad Watson
Walker is an assassin, one of the best in the business. But this time one of the witnesses wasn’t as dead as they seemed to be. With his cover potentially blown, he needs a trip to “Reassignment Center 42” to be fitted out with a new identity, a process that he seems to be quite familiar with.
This time however there’s barely time for him to have his fingerprints burned off before the facility comes under attack by a team of heavily armed mercenaries under the command of Keates. Their target is Juliet and her protector Elda.
Director Brad Watson’s credits run more towards horror films such as Beacon 77 and For We Are Many than action, and The Siege is Nicole Bartlett’s first produced script...
