Mind Games and Body Horror: Alex Garland Day SchoolSaturday 24 January
10.00-17.00 with a lunch break from 13.00-14.00
£45 or £40 for Members and concessions
Tutor: Peter Krämer ([email protected])
Taking the January 2026 release of the third 28 Days Later sequel, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, which was once again scripted by Garland, as a point of departure, this day school explores all aspects of his work: his three novels; his many scripts for films, video games and a TV series (the mind-blowing tech thriller Devs [2020]); his – in the case of Dredd (2012) uncredited – work as a director and also as a producer.
The focus will be on the origins of Garland’s work in literature and popular culture; on his fascination with both body horror and intellectual challenges; and on his recent turn away from largely female-centred stories (from Never Let Me Go to Civil War [2024]) towards male-centred war and action movies (Warfare [2025] and two 28 Years Later movies [2025/26]).
Programmed in partnership with the Sir John Hurt Film Trust.
