Thrillers get our minds racing as well as our pulses, bringing the twists and turns of psychological and political intrigue together with edge-of-the seat suspense. Great thrillers hold us in the grip of uncertainty and let our suspicions play out to their perilous conclusions.

In this season of late night screenings journey with us into the darkest recesses of human behaviour as we revisit some of Cinema's seminal thrillers, spine-chilling films that reflected our personal fears in times of political uncertainty and social change. So as the nights begin to set in and the shadows start to grow longer, join us in the relative sanctuary of the cinema to experience the sheer thrill of danger and deception writ large on the big screen.
