    I had a look through the comments on Facebook and it might be The Breadwinner. It also looks like it's specifically an Irish movie, so that's why there isn't a decent discussion about it on Reddit or Letterboxd.

    Saw that too, I saw it at the film festival so will have to give it a miss. There was also some comments that suggested it could be Black 47, that I would like to see... hmm

    Black47 is excellent. Slow but gathers momentum.

    As I seen it at the festival I'm hoping it's The Breadwinner :p

    That was poor, really bad. Like a 2 hour fair city episode.

    Clue 4: With Smokin’ Drive Brothers

    A comment from Reddit:
    Its definitely Upgrade. The director and writer of Upgrade did Saw 1 2 3 and 10 (a Saw Short) whilst also he acted and fighted in the first 2 Saw films: hence from fighting to writing.

    Upgrade hasn't got a BBFC rating yet, so I have my doubts. It would be a great one to show though...

    Actually it could be the Strangers 2 (in case anyone was hoping for Upgrade). From Clue 4:
    Smokin' (Aces = Martin Henderson) Drive (= Christina Hendricks) Brothers (= Bailee Madison) clue is extremely indicative of Strangers 2.

    All 3 actors are in Strangers: Prey at Night

    It was Strangers: Prey at Night. I checked my phone when the credits rolled, it's only 77 minutes long! I liked it though, it's no masterpiece and full of cliches but it gets into the action pretty quickly and delivers a solid horror movie. If you liked the first Strangers movie you should like this one.

    It wasn't great if I'm honest. Absurd set-up and too many plot holes

    Omniplex have a similar offering - Secret Cinema (does it warrant a separate thread?), with the next being Friday week (29th June). 10 euros gets ticket and a medium drink and popcorn.

    https://www.omniplex.ie/whatson/movie/omniplex-secret-screening-10

    Comparing it to the IFCO upcoming movies:

    http://ifco.ie/website/ifco/ifcoweb.nsf/web/upcomingfilms?opendocument&upcoming=yes&type=graphic

    release date, IFCO rating (16), Genre (Drama) and run-time (95 minutes) all point to Dublin Oldschool.

    But 29th of June is its actual release date according to that Youtube link..?

    Aye, but the only other contenders (rated 16) are Tag (release date 29th June, run-time 100 mins) or Hotel Artemis (Release date 20th July, run-time 94 minutes).

    Two other 16s are listed, Heathers and In the Fade, but I think the run-times and release dates preclude them.

    (Of course the film may not be on the IFCO future releases table yet, but the fact Omni are advertising a 16s rating would seem to indicate it has been rated and should therefore be on the IFCO list).

    Last secret screening I went to was Atomic Blonde, and that was a few days before official release date (screening was 7th August and the release date was 11th), so makes Hotel Artemis unlikely.

    All-in-all, I think Dublin Oldschool is probably the film, but small chance its tag (run-time probably not and same release date) or Hotel artemis (run-time difference is negligible, but release date is probably too far away).

    You are correct about Dublin Oldschool, I am just wondering how this is a 'see it first' scenario if that is the actual release date for that movie...

    By the way, here is the further and conclusive proof that it's Dublin Oldschool:

    You're right. I mistook the release date on their page for screening date. (Does say 21st in the text above it).

    New Scream Unseen next week. First 2 clues:

    1. "Injection role reversal"
    2. "Controlling mother and mean father"

    One post on Letterboxd has a very good theory that it's Marrowbone:
    "Controlling mother and mean father" - in marrowbone the parents are credited as 'mother' and 'father', the actress playing mother was in the film control and the actor playing father was in mean machine.

    Trailer. Out in the States and on demand since April, apparently.

    For anyone curious, it was The Secret of Marrowbone (4 days before general release, and months after it was released on streaming services in the US)

    Very poor film. A couple of scares but otherwise pedestrian with an absurd set-up and a narrative with plot holes you could drive a bus through.

    If you select a cinema from that screen it will take you to the page with the dates for both screenings. Also if you look at the release date at the side of the page it says "Released on 28/08/18" and "Previews 20/08/18".

    The first clues are out for each screening.
    The Irish one on the 20th "She was almost it"
    The regular one on the 28th "Previously mixed like The Beatles"

    The Irish one has to be Black '47, right? Saw the trailer in the cinema tonight - it looks excellent.
    Due for release on September 7th, so I think it could be a runner....
