Grimmfest, the annual horror festival, taking place at the Odeon Printworks, Manchester between 1-4 October 2015, have just announced the first 3 films screening at this years festival.
HE NEVER DIED (UK PREMIERE)
Starring Henry Rollins the frontman of legendary punk band Black Flag, HE NEVER DIED follows Jack, who's in a rut. Depression and severe anti-social behavior has whittled down his existence to sleeping and watching television. Seeing the human race as little more than meat with a pulse, Jack has no interest to bond with anyone.
SYNCHRONICITY (UK PREMIERE)
From the creators of The Signal comes Synchronicity, a mind-bending ‘Sci-fi Noir’ in the tradition of Dark City, Blade Runner, and Alphaville starring Chad McKnight, Michael Ironside and Brianne Davis. The film follows physicist Jim Beale just as he invents a machine that can fold space-time, suddenly a rare Dahlia appears from the future. He must now find the flower’s identical match in the present to prove his machine works.
EXCESS FLESH (UK PREMIERE)
Excess Flesh is the new shocking body horror from writer and director Patrick Kennelly. The film centres around Jill who is obsessed with her new roommate Jennifer, a promiscuous and sexy hotshot in the LA Fashion scene. New to the city and recently single, Jill is unable to keep up as she binges and purges to stay thin; eventually hating herself and everyone around her.

Seeing the human race as little more than meat with a pulse, Jack has no interest to bond with anyone.
There’s little purpose for him to make friends with someone he’d eventually eat or outlive by more than a millennia. The fuse is lit when Jack’s past comes back to rattle him. Jack must now walk a tight rope of sobriety and try to eat as few people as possible in this violent tale of personal responsibility.

Jim soon discovers that the Dahlia lies in the hands of a mysterious girl, who seduces him into revealing his secrets. Convinced that he’s fallen prey to a femme fatale trying to steal his invention, Jim travels back in time to stop her betrayal before it happens. But once in the past, Jim uncovers a surprising truth about the machine, the girl, and his own reality
