About the B-Movie Fan Club curator, Robin

Robin Knowles, now 18, started programming the monthly B-Movie season at the Electric Palace Cinema when he was 13 years old.

The original idea behind the club was both to celebrate the B-Movie genre and also to create an event which provides Robin, who has autism, with a way of accessing an independent social life and make more connections.

Robin continues to be a huge fan of B-Movies and has a wealth of information on sci-fi, fantasy and B-Movies. Although Robin is reluctant to introduce the films, he is a great welcoming host and will, if engaged, give way more information than most people want! He is interested in reaching a wider audience and developing the programme.

Join us every month for your B-Movie fix! Free space candy included with every £5 ticket.

Coming up this season

Zombies of Mora Tau - Sunday 29 March - postponed due to COVID-19
