WE’RE OBSESSED WITH FILM AND WANT YOU TO BE TOO!

The Victoria Film Festival embodies the spirit of the cinematic arts on Vancouver Island. We worship cult films, practice wine & beer sacrifices, offer a ritual of initiation for emerging filmmakers, and bring unique artistic voices from Canada and around the world to local screens.

October Retromania: Fright Fest

😱🔪Beware of phone calls, hide your baby and be careful who you trust! This October, The Vic Theatre's Retromania brings you Fright Fest with three iconic and seriously FREAKY films: Rosemary's Baby, The Thing & Scream. So, tell me, Sidney... what's your favourite scary movie? A 1968 psychological horror film, Rosemary’s Baby is based on the book by Ira Levin, which sold over four million copies. The Thing originally bombed in theatres but found life as a cult classic once it rolled out on VHS and is now considered one of the greatest horror films ever made! And who knew Scream would be such a scream following its release just before Christmas of 1996? Not typically a prime season for horror, this flick managed to be one of the highest-grossing films of ’97. Catch all three of these single screenings this October… if you dare! Only at The Vic Theatre.

Rocky Horror Picture Show 2024

Prepare yourself for a time warp, because The Vic Theatre is bringing you the ultimate cult classic: Rocky Horror Picture Show! Join Brad and Janet as they stumble upon the weird, wild, and wonderfully bizarre world of Dr. Frank-N-Furter (played fabulously by the legendary Tim Curry). From mad scientists to dancing aliens, this musical extravaganza will have you belting out "Sweet Transvestite" and doing the Time Warp like it's 1975 all over again. Whether you're a Rocky Horror newbie or a seasoned veteran in fishnets, grab your props and bring your wildest self to The Vic Theatre this October for a night of wild fun and absolute weirdness!
